You did well with the title, but just failed on the post itself. An e36 manual conversion aint hte easiest thing to source. I suggest you post up what model, year and engine your car is running. Be prepared to pay between $900-2000+ for it and thats not including labour to get it in there. Might be better off just finding another auto box for $200. www.sdeuropean.co.nz probably have some kits available but again .. you'll looking at $2000+GST and upwards. keep an eye on trademe, the only one I know of on there at the moment is this one here which is for a early E36 318iS and I dontk now that you could use it on any other model E36.

So If you or anybody else reading this keeps in touch,I will know all about it by the end of next week. Expect to pay about $1500 For a complete E36 conversion [M50/M52] Have Fun. . . . .
