Deano 1 Report post Posted May 12, 2010 The Jatco is flaring. I have a E30 260 5 speed and probably all the bits need for manual conversion. I understand the M52 is leaning an extra 10 degrees. I know the box bolts up. So is the only tricky bit is the gear shifter linkage? Has anyone used an getrag 260 for the manual conversion. I searched but no straight answers. I have read people do the 24V swap into E30s and using the stock gearbox OK. Cheers Dean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could be done, theres a guy in the states (on R3v) rocking one in his E36 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
