HELLBM

They said it couldn`t be done.

Recommended Posts

M Coupe 5 spd. to 6 spd. conversion.

Info on the net pretty much said that the extra length of the 6 speed could not be accomodated.

Proved wrong at Hellbm during a quite moment. Can`t figure out why it was never a factory option. Certainly put a huge grin on my face.

2200rpm @ 100kph in 6th. How it gets there is awesome. ( eg. 4th to 5th at 140kph without any stress)

13kg in the centre of the car down low - can`t be a bad thing.

You'd have to think that if they'll fit in an E30. they would go in an M coupe.

Didn`t enter my calculations. Haven`t had the opportunity to 6 spd. a E30 yet ,though now I know it can be done...

two words- homologation & beauracracy/bullshit. Will fill you in when you drop those parts off.

Now back to something more pleasurable- 6 speed conversions..
