Milo500 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Hi guys, I'm thinking similar posts may have bee put up, but maybe not about the gearbor I'm asking about. I have a 1995 mk4 originally a gte auto, I have now single converted it and always wanted to go manual, but at the cost of a v160 I never thought it was worth it, imo. However after looking at someone's build, they have used an e46 m3 6 speed, and they are ea silly available for around £500-£800. So my question is, how much would it cost in parts (as I would do it myself) for the conversion, start to finish? The car is running around 550 at the moment (at the crank) but would like to go higher, although I am not sure how much the e46 getrag wilL go up to before starting to deteriate. Thanks, and like I said, if there's a similar post that will answer this, please link me Cheers, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HELLBOY666 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 They will actually buy a bmw m3 box and strip and rebuild before thinking about doing the swap but a clutch pedal is gonna be ure issue as they are hard to find or you will have to have a custom one built Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
