flywheel and gearbox
« on: May 26, 2011, 08:42:47 PM »
i'm changing gearbox from standard m42 e30 to m42 e36 box, i'm thinking of changing flywheel at the same time. will the m20 fly wheel work with this set up? also will the m44 box work the same?
many thanks

Don't bother changing your 'box, no point to it unless yours is fried and you have an E36'er lying around.

The M20 FW swap is well documented, search.

what do you mean, they have diferent gear ratios and there is a big point because of that?
