Hi everyone.

I have a 93 318i, and a 95 ti with no drivetrain. It will have a S54 and 6-Speed in it by Bimmerfest.

Anyhow, HI EVERYONE

Should be nice. I wish I had a 6 speed in my 2.8. 5th gear revs pretty high with my 3.46 rear.

Thanks!

That's what my 318i has and it kills me 4k at 70 MPH.

cool. if you can document the swap, that'd be great. we just added a new knowledgebase articles section and that'd be a fine addition

EDIT: that'd be an e46 m3, right?

Don't know if an E46 would mate up.

Euro got a 6spd in the E36.

ah ... that makes a little more sense thoughts on such a six speed with a supercharged 4?

Yeah, they mate up. The only fun part is the custom shift tower you have to fabricate.

Will do and correct. It's from a 2004 M3

I am using the gauge cluster, the seats and steering wheel as well.

Yeah, I am thinking of sourcing a MZ3 roadster. Custom driveline, etc.

That would be the optimum setup.
