    Default Opinions wanted on ebay 5 speed getrag to do a auto / manual swap with

    http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....26#description

    I can pick it up locally. He's selling the clutch and flywheel for an extra aus$350. I came across this awesome link http://www.nmia.com/~dgnrg/page_41.htm (thanks Shogun), which lists extensively the work needed to be carried out.

    My questions are this one if from an e28 528i - will it work in my car, e34 535i auto, zf4ph22 gearbox.

    What extra components would I need to buy for the swap and could I do the labour myself?

    Seller answer / question stuff
    Q: Hey there, you say that this can fit on an M30 3.5 liter? Does it have the place for the Motronic senors to fit on the bellhousing? If the 528i was a Jet tronic (as is mine) i highly doubt it would fit on a motronic 3.5. If it does have the motronic holes i would be very inerested. What model getrag is it? 265 or 260? what year model car did it come out from? any help will be appriciated.

    A: Hey ive just looked it up it has the bellhouseing that comes off so it makes this one a 265/6 getrag and not sure about the place for the motronic sensors you should be able to change the bellhouseing in the worse case senario it came out of an 1984 model nt sure bout and for the question before the reverse ive belive is 3.71 ratio thanks andrew

    Sorry but I can't help, but it does sound like an awsome project. I'd actually like to do the same conversion on my E38!

    And I wanted to bump your post back to the top!

    A Bimmer Nut for sure: '04 530im (current daily driver), '97 m3, '98 323is, '99 Z3, '01 740iL, '06 330cicm zhp, '02 R1150R, '69 r60, Owner/Operator of www.Bimmer.info and www.BimmerNut.com
    And I still maintain: '90 535im (sold to daughters best friend, one of my favorite bimmers), '92 525im (daughters other best friend now drives this one).
