GTE Engineering supports Ferrari F1-to-gated-manual conversion projects through application assessment, cataloged kits and separately agreed workshop services. A conversion changes how the driver operates the clutch and selects gears. It requires a coordinated mechanical and electronic plan for the exact vehicle.
What changes in a conversion?
A gated manual conversion introduces driver-operated clutch and gear selection in place of the applicable F1 actuation arrangement. Depending on the vehicle and kit, the work can involve pedal and clutch hydraulics, gear-selection hardware, brackets, cables or linkages, trim, electrical configuration and control-system changes. The exact bill of materials and installation work must be confirmed for the selected kit.
Choose by vehicle and installed equipment
The catalog includes Ferrari 360 and F430 conversion listings. Other models or configurations require their own assessment and available listing. A kit suitable for one model does not establish compatibility with another gearbox, dashboard, controller or right-hand-drive configuration. Provide the VIN, model, year, left- or right-hand drive, gearbox details and any existing modifications.
Kit supply versus workshop installation
- Parts kit: includes only the items specified in the product listing and agreed order.
- Installation: labor, fluids, vehicle preparation and commissioning are separate unless expressly included.
- Clutch or gearbox repair: worn components may require additional work independent of the conversion.
- Electronics: controller compatibility, configuration and any required supporting hardware must be confirmed.
Inspect before committing
A conversion is not a repair for every underlying transmission fault. Assess clutch condition, release components, gearbox selection, synchronizers, leaks, wiring and previous repairs before defining the project. Preserving a record of the original configuration and all installed conversion parts supports future serviceability.
Project sequence
- Identify the vehicle and explain the intended use.
- Review the compatible kit and a written list of inclusions.
- Agree the installation, electronic configuration and any additional repairs.
- Complete commissioning and appropriate workshop checks before returning the car to service.
- Retain the installation records and application-specific service information.
Common questions
Does the kit price include installation?
Only when the listing or estimate expressly says so.
Does conversion automatically increase engine power?
No. It changes the operating arrangement; it does not create engine horsepower.
Is there a universal lifetime warranty?
Use the written coverage applicable to the selected product and GTE’s current warranty terms. Do not assume a general guide creates additional coverage.
Is the Ferrari 360 OTO clutch program the same project?
No. OTO is a separate clutch-conversion program and must be assessed independently.
