Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 Needs to be a M30 box, yours won't work. The box alone would eat up your budget, I'd stick to a straight swap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dirtydoogle 383 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 I have found a motor and gearbox delivered to my door for 1400 in running cond, str8 out of an E34.....Complete with loom and any different parts? Not too sure if the mounts would be the same. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 you need the lot . engine and trans with all the loom from both those . all the ecu's , drivehshaft , diff and subframe etc , exhaust . if you can pick up a 535ia thats has body damage or rust then its worth it other wise you will get stuck with something that doesn't work and having to keep buying bits etc but i guess thats good for our business Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
