I'm using a E36 328 sway bar on mine James

Only 4 cylinder M42/44 with getrag 250g out of an E36. The 250g was used by most of the 320's 6's and not 323,325 0r 328's is how I read it and how I did it with no mods or lining up issues. The discussion could go on and on.... but I DID IT.... see my thread or come and have a look, take photos, have a chat

Thanks Andy.... yes we are pleased with the result. It's been needing an upgrade for years to become user freindly

Thanks Josh

If you look at page 3... the gearbox and linkages are all attached as it came out of the 318 when I purchased the conversion from Ray the only thing that changed was all new bushes and seals. Its all 4 cylinder gear. And it was taken off a M42/44

It's all here http://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/20977-e36-m50m52-manual-conversion/

I did not have to do this... I used the 318 I linkages that came with the 250G box from HellBM with no modifications needed

I used a getrag 250g of a E36 318 M42/M44 motor. The driveshaft was only different because it was previously auto. You only need to change the front part of the driveshaft. There was no need to change/adjust or modify linkages or gearbox mounts

I bet that hurt Allan.... I do that too occasionally... the wife's allergic... crayfish or crab could kill her

This picture shows the different heights of the carriers..... the 2 on the right. You probably need the longer of the two. If you lengthen the pushrod the arm will start touching the pressure plate after a short period of time because the fork angles are wrong. If you push the clutch slave cylinder in and measure the protrusion of the push rod from the mounting face of the cylinder. This distance should be about 4-5mm greater from the mounting face of the bell housing and the ball socket in the clutch fork when the fork is gently pushed against the pressure plate fingers.

My feet got cold getting a sh*t load of fish and scallops this weekend... WTF is wrong with our climate.... it should be warm BTW... the scallops were too big to put in your mouth whole... and we had 160 of them

Yes.. my smoker... I make my own bacon

Another great day with great friends..... another 80 scallops`... 530mm snapper, a large "trev" a large gurnard and a few 300mm snapper... all in all a great weekend

There is also 2 different release bearing carriers one is approx 10mm deeper than the other

The 55's went to the shag following us around.... The 550's in the smoker at the moment... Fresh bread.. Smoked fish and a few beers. Can't be better than this

Great day out here at Awhitu.....4 of us out in the boat...3 drags with the dredge & 80 scallops ... 30 minutes , then fishing only 2 of us 1.5 hrs ... 19 X 300mm & 1 X 550mm snapper ...now a few beers... You can't have a better day than this with the weather at the moment. Doing it all again in the morning

I'd like to edit it but I can't edit my profile... it looks like I don't have permission to edit my own profile

Not here it doesn't. If I click on my signature website link it comes up with error 404, but I can't edit my profile... another glitch on here with no active admin to help with it

It does: www.botanymotorworx but if you click on the link on my signature it doesn't and I can't change it by myself on my signature profile

if you google botanymotorworx without any WWW it works fine. I just can't change it here on my profile

I need it changed to this: http://botanymotorworx.co.nz/
