BMW 6 Speed (420g) Transmission Swap into E36 M3 - 5 Speed previously installed.

The 5 Speed clutch broke on my 1995 M3 so I decided to swap in a 6 Speed I had laying around. The 6 speed transmission started life as an BMW E46 SMG transmission, I had the bellhousing machined and converted to a true manual housing. This is done by installing a detent kit - www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-...

Looks pretty Easy ! I just did a manual swap on my E36 and i Lowkey want to do a 6 speed swap now

Nice work, can I do the same on e46 328ci 5 speed manual transmission, swapping it with 330i gearbox 6 speed manual?????

Hello bro . I have 5 speed zf . M52b28 with 3.64 diff

[@adlannisiyev8447]

Hi, everyone I was wondering if its possible to put a 6 speed gearbox from e46 330d on my e36 328i. And what I need to buy extra?

[@Thegreendingler]

Question, when you did the swap i noticed the shift carrier was much longer on the 6 speed. Will the shift knob still fit in the original e36 shifter hole or is modification required?

[@mehmetsalihkaya9423]

Is it necessary to modify the own brain when shifting to 6 gears?

Hey i have a 328i e36

[@darrickbynum6765]

How short did you get the driveshaft cut? And do you have it get it cut?

[@europeantechnique572]

Beside modifying the bell housing, I understand that I’d need to modify the SMG gear box for the Gear Identification Switch. What parts will go into the new tapped hole? if you could, please provide the list of parts that I need, part numbers ?

[@europeantechnique572]

Question for you.... Did you use the same flywheel from the e36 m3? i heard the are the same... Is this true.. which clutch and flywheel did you go with?

[@TechTokOffical]

Do u remember off hand the end length of ur driveshaft?

[@kingazhar1212]

Can the bmw E90 6 speed gearbox fit on the m50 motor

[@AH-jh8fv]

Great job man! I hope I can do that with mine in the future! I currently run a 3.68 LSD diff from a z3 that came with a 6 speed, and now i need a 6 speed trans to match the ratio, but they are super hard to find!

Hey man, I wanted to ask you would it be possible to swap gears on golf mk6 2009 from a five speed manual to a six?

Hello, I have a question, can I change my Peugeot 406 4 speed automatic transmission to 6 speed automatic transmission? Sorry for the noob question, thank you.
