Now a bad idea to setup your shifter as well. Prepare your Trans for install. Now Put it all together and use your choice of grease some use lithium some use regular bearing. Note: Make sure to order a metal Pivot ball since it will last longer.
Now is where you will need to have patience and a good amount of strength. Be sure your tranny is in Neutral. Get you manual Trans under the car. You will need to jack up the front of the engine and tilt it as far back as you can. Now get the trans as close and you can top the pressure plate without it touching and jack it up to the point where it looks aligned to the engine snug it in and move the rear shaft for the trans so u can line it up to the splines on the clutch disc and lift and push its should mate with the engine flat.
Now put on the Trans cross member and bushings. I put the bushings on first and tightened them up then I mated it to the chassis and Trans. And just be sure the cable is out of the way of any parts that will be rotating. Once the Trans is up go ahead and install the shift linkage you will need the selector rod, 1 bearing bolt, 4 plastic washers and the 2 locking clips. Now put it all together I put a tad amount of grease on the pins too. Now is a good time to put your interior back together.
Well I did since I needed a rest from being under the car so much. Also the under dash will need to modify for the new pedal you just added. I zipped through it with a cutting disc and just cut out the insulation with a razor. Now grab your new flex disc and bolts it on first.
Now its time to install this bad boy. For me I inserted the driveshaft onto the diff then maneuvered it up into the Trans end centering it with that pin. Push up on the center bearing bearing side up. Now Place the center bearing nut to hold it in place. Note: Be sure the car is solid before you go under there last thing we need is a crushed melon. This is the go-to gearbox for anyone with a decently powerful engine. Capable of over NM.
Its achilles heel is the 5th gear lean, where the shifter has no resistance leaning right from its neutral position. Good news is that this can be rectified with a 5th gear detent service that we provide.
E36 M3 3. Different to the E46 M3 as its input spline is smaller in diameter albiet having the same number of teeth. The manual gearbox cross member is different to the automatics. There are three types of cross members, one for each type of manual gearbox; Getrag g, ZF z and Getrag g.
They are not interchangeable. All manual gearboxes use the same gearbox mount - use E46 M3 gearbox mounts for all street cars. Also, how long should it take in labor hours? I've been quoted a max of four, another , and then 20 hours! Parts List So far I got all for it shipped to my house shipped all from a 98 m3 tranny, with the diff Manual Transmission Transmission cross-member Clutch Flywheel Pressure plate, throw out bearing etc Clutch Master cylinder Slave cylinder All Hydraulic lines from clutch master cylinder to the slave cylinder.
About a 10 inch hose from the brake reservoir to the clutch cylinder you know, the braided hose type that the brake fluid reservoir already uses. Clutch Fork The selecting rod stabilizing sleeve. It is a little bushing, wrapped in a metal bracket that mounts the end of the top shift linkage to the frame that stabilizes it.

I don't know what I left off. And don't have time to look at it right now. Frances The Mute 1, posts months. Providing you have a donor car in situ to get the requisite parts from, it should be pretty straight forward as it's the small parts that can hold up a conversion.
You'll probably need to source an extra gearbox support as the manual box requires extra bracing up front from what I remember.
The pedal box will need changing out which can be awkward - but stripping the dash out of each car will help you gain access for removal and refitting. I believe that the prop shaft is a different length, too. So this will require a swap over. Everything else should be a plug and play affair.
