The Gallardo, restored.
A gated 6-speed manual conversion for Lamborghini's V10 flagship. The Royalty Murciélago program's engineering standards, applied to the Gallardo platform.
The e-gear was a compromise.
Lamborghini shipped the Gallardo with a robotized single-clutch transmission. It was a fair engineering answer for its era. Two decades later, drivers know exactly what it cost the car: the analog connection its predecessors were defined by. Our conversion restores it.
Analog by design.
Metal shift gate. Weighted throw. OEM-spec clutch and flywheel. The Gallardo was designed as a driver's car. We restore what the drivetrain always deserved.
Engineered end to end.
Complete e-gear removal, hydraulics decommissioned, shifter linkage installed, ECU reflashed and calibrated. This is not a bolt-on kit. Every conversion is engineered as a system.
Documented value.
Manual Lamborghinis have consistently outperformed their robotized counterparts at auction. Gallardo Manual builds trade at a documented premium.
The Process.
Same discipline as the Murciélago program. Intake to delivery, in-house.
Intake & Inspection
Full mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical audit. Baseline documentation with photographs and a written report.
E-gear Removal
Complete decommissioning of the robotized transmission system. Pump, actuators, and TCU retired.
Manual Install
Metal shift gate, OEM-spec clutch, flywheel, and linkage installed. Every component torqued and verified.
ECU Calibration
Full ECU reflash and calibration. Drive-by-wire mapping refined for the mechanical shift.
Road Certification
100-mile mixed-condition test protocol. Delivered with a certificate of build and 1 year warranty.
Engineered, not modified.
The Royalty Gallardo Manual conversion, measured against the factory e-gear configuration.
Verde Ithaca Superleggera.
Our most recent Gallardo build. A 2011 LP570-4 Superleggera transformed with twin-turbo forced induction and a Royalty gated manual conversion.
Gallardo Twin-Turbo Superleggera
Twin-turbo 5.2L V10 producing 1500 horsepower, paired with a Royalty gated 6-speed manual. Verde Ithaca exterior, HRE forged wheels, full Superleggera carbon fiber aero. Photographed on the Las Vegas Strip.

Answers.
Is the conversion reversible?
Yes. The original e-gear components are retained and cataloged with your build documentation. A future owner can restore the factory configuration if desired.
Which Gallardo years and variants are eligible?
All Gallardo production years and variants including LP560-4, LP570-4 Superleggera, and Spyder configurations. Coupé and Spyder builds are executed to the same specification.
How long does the build take?
Less than 30 days from intake to delivery for standard conversions. Additional services (interior restoration, exhaust, mechanical work) may extend the window and are quoted separately.
Does it affect registration or insurance?
No. The conversion has no impact on emissions, safety, or lighting systems. Vehicles are returned with the same registration and titling as they arrived.
What's included in the warranty?
Full coverage on the shift mechanism and installed hydraulics for 1 year from delivery. Extended coverage available on request.
Can I bundle other services with the conversion?
Yes. Interior restoration, custom exhaust, and mechanical services can be bundled with the conversion at a combined rate. Discuss during your initial consultation.
What if my car needs additional work during the conversion?
Sometimes we find work worth doing while the drivetrain is already out. Motor mounts, gaskets, seals, tensioners. When that happens, we do the labor at no extra cost. You only pay for the parts. Your car leaves better than it arrived.
