Converting a M60B40 to run a Toyota 5/6 speed manual?
_ethrty-Andy_ replied to soarer260@hotmail.com's topic in Performance
I know of someone through a firend with a Camry gearbox on the back of an M70 in his offroader, so if the M70 and M60 have the same bellhousing then it should fit. iirc it bolted straight up with no modification. not sure if any modification needs to be used to fit it into a BMW though -
If anyone has any 3pc versions then id be interested in those too
-
Does anyone have one wheel lying around? or a set? or part of a set? I have possibly sold my 17"s as they probably wont fit 51mm struts and i dont really like them anyway I have 3x Hartges good Hartges, the other is irreparable, and want to throw them on. can anyone help?
-
+4 lol i guess its some sort of anti spamming thing? maybe it can be lifted after like 100 posts or something?
-
never seen an E36 but from what ive been told the E36 one has two mounting points on it while the E30 has one. Except the E36 compact which essentially has the same rear end as E30. Someone more knowledgable will confirm or otherwise though
-
have a 4.45 if you cant find anything else
-
waste of time buying second hand. they are only around the $50 mark from repcos
-
Try looking on TradeMe? alternatively flick it on TM once you are finished. Would probably work out cheaper than hiring one.. if you can hire one..
-
looking great! are those aftermarket headlights? Not an E46 expert but they look different to normal..?
-
To my knowledge there are three different manual driveshafts. please name your engine and gearbox
-
If hybrids are this good then ill get one in the future. if not, ill stick to second hand petrols
-
^^ cheers mate! now i know what im looking for! will be running the M20 one in the meantime, but eventually will switch to that if i get annoyed with the expansion tank
-
^^ what does an M50 E34 run? does that one have the built in expansion tank too? i have two M20 radiators here so no issue to use that.. its just for cleanness of the engine bay that im thinking the built in expansion tank. Thanks for your info!
-
At least its manual. Walking is just as fast as 320i Auto. manual makes the b20 a good engine
-
Have had lots of updates since the last post on here so i thought id bump it to show you guys where im at if your interested My Webiste

i wouldnt run my car in mine as i like to know my car is 100% legal. That said, (how) does a WOF shop actually tell if its an open/LSD/locked diff? ive never seen them check that at VTNZ before (market themselves as the most thorough and reliable...)
-
mmm E46 Ti The compact BMW that actually looks nice haha
-
Thanks Michael. Yeah i have one for sale as per the link.
-
have fun! diffs are PITA to do imo. heavy awkward bastards and hard to balance on a jack and menouver into place. time of your life ahead haha
-
+1 on loosing the center caps! Wagons are awesome
-
i have a medium case LSD in my 320i (comes with small case from factory). the medium case diff actually bolts straight up surprisingly
-
this is still for sale. Make an offer if you want it. All wrapped up on a pallet all ready to go finance my build!!
-
wire it using the factory wiring. cut the fan off the wires and then join them to the new high/low wires on the new fan if using just high or just low, iirc the aux fan has a built in resistor to change the speeds, and so the two + wires are both 12V so either one will work, and cap the other off
