darrencnz 10 Report post Posted May 2, 2016 Hey guys I have finally put my ZF gearbox into my M52 E30, i have some spares that need to go as i don't really have room to store them, details below, PM me for more info or to buy as i will be putting whatever doesnt sell on trade me at the end of the week but thought i'd give you guys first dibs on anything... Getrag 240 5 speed has done 265,000kms is a little noisy but goes fine, changes fine, syncros still seem ok but the kms is getting up there. Gearbox only, no selector linkages or slave cylinder. Took it out on the weekend of a running car - $250 + shipping Getrag 240 gearbox crossmember, came out of a facelift 1990 E30 with M52 so will suit M50 conversions as well. This is a modified standard cross member, has passed multiple warrants as it looks original and have never been questioned about it. - $80 + shipping Getrag 240 gearbox crossmember, came out of a facelift 1990 E30 with M52 so will suit M50 conversions as well. This is a custom made cross member that will not pass warrants but will certainly pass cert, very strong and well made. - $60 + shipping 1994 M3/328 5 speed manual gearbox crossmember, as is - $60 + shipping Flexshift urethane flex joint/coupler from the Getrag 240 setup, bought this brand new around 6 months ago, paid $220 for it but cant use in the new setup as the yoke is a different size - $120 + shipping Brand new E30 standard clutch throw out bearing - $50 + shipping PM me for more details or to arrange purchase, happy to sort shipping for anyone out of town or can pick up in Christchurch.

darrencnz 10 Report post Posted May 2, 2016 do i use a E30 manual or E36 manual cross member to bolt a ZF in? I used a standard unmodified E30 crossmember to fit the ZF, this took away the "getrag lean" and i used the standard G240 shifter linkages and everything fit sweet... Driveshaft needed to be shortened 40mm but the universals needed replacing anyway so i'm just rebuilding the whole driveshaft... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darrencnz 10 Report post Posted May 4, 2016 (edited) hmm might be keen on the crossmember I've gone ZF so am running a standard E30 cross member now, as you can probably figure out, i started with the custom one and failed WOF so my mate modified the standard one for me. I would've just certed the custom one but i still had mods to finish before i get cert and needed to use the car as i cant afford to be paying $500 everytime i make upgrades to the car. Pisses me off how the system works, it forces us to sometimes do these things... lol Edited May 4, 2016 by darrencnz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
