Default E36 to E46 Transmission Conversion - 02-24-2007 , 08:13 PM






Hello
Can anyone help me in telling me if I can make a conversion from an
automatic transmission from a E36 to a Manual E46 6 speed
Transmission?

I have a 1993 e36 automatic transmission

want to put on a e46 m3 6 speed transmission, can it be made ?

Given cubic amounts of money anything is possible - but in this case it
might require some rather massive re-engineering of the transmission
tunnel and mounting points, plus probably driveline and shift linkage.

Possibe - anything is --- practical - hardly.

Best way to achieve this is to sell the '93 car and buy an E46 M3 with
the 6-speed installed. Probably less expensive in the long run than what
you're trying to do (only about $29k difference in value between a '93
any BMW and an '03 M3..)
