Good to know the 6spd fits perfect.
Have to start looking for a dead manual box.

as you know, when the m3 gearbox fits into the engine, nothing else fits =)

I noticed on that article that it said you're running M5 sway bars with Powerflex bushings, which is the same as what I'm putting on my car. I'd be interested to see how you're actually attaching the new brackets to the car. Another member here has a reinforcing kit for the back which'll fit no problem, but the front is kind of unsure, as he uses Energy Suspension brand bushings on his. If I have to get one fabricated, it'd be nice to have a couple of pictures of a set up that works.

Hopefully it's actually an M5 box. $300 core charge and I'm going to bet most of the cores they get back aren't M5 boxes.

this wasnt a box from a m5 :cry: this was from a normal e28 3.7 turns outside car
send it back and bought a steeringbox from a m5 e34 instead with 3.4 turns outside car, so it be around 3.1 3.2 in car :D

Huh, looks like your mock up method was good enough after all. All that anger on the facebook group was unnecessary, it seems. :rofl:
