HELLBM 1555 Report post Posted September 23, 2010 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. M Coupe pictured with it`s silver brothers: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HELLBM 1555 Report post Posted September 23, 2010 Sweet mother of moses, all those all yours? Congrats on proving them wrong! How has it changed the attitude of the car? 2200rpm @ 100kph in 6th. How it gets there is awesome. ( eg. 4th to 5th at 140kph without any stress) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HELLBM 1555 Report post Posted September 24, 2010 Mmmmmmmmmmm ps. What happened to the race touring Ray? two words- homologation & beauracracy/bullshit. Will fill you in when you drop those parts off. Now back to something more pleasurable- 6 speed conversions.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
