Re: 5 speed to 6 speed

Anything is possible. It depends on how much money you wanna spend...

It's no direct swap for sure. Software, hardware all different... The cost of the custom software and hardware to make the gearbox fit into an E46 will probably be twice the price of the gearbox itself...

Re: 5 speed to 6 speed

Just go for Pfitzner or Hollinger Dogbox. You won't go wrong.

Pfitzner Performance Gearbox

Can't find the site on Hollinger.

You wouldn't be interested in both of these gearboxes. They compromise comfort for performance and is able to handle high hp application. They use Straight Cut compared to the conventional Helical cut on the teeth and it makes a whining sound that my cause irritable bowel syndrome.

Re: 5 speed to 6 speed

Yup, Toto is right. Dun be siao la. And worst of all, why would you want to spend so many thousands of dollars on something that does nothing to your car?
