Brad1138 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2006 Hey guys, just wondering what type of manual gear boxes fit up to the e34 540i. Would anyone know where to find the parts for the conversion. Getting the car its suspension package installed this weekend and will finally have some pictures to put up on the site. Cheers again Brad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You must source a V8 box for it to bolt in, no other way unfortunately! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
