anyone know the cost of upgrading steptronic 5 speed to 6 speed? is E90 using the 6 speed steptronic? can it fit into E46?
 
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...

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. :D

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?

Steptronic to another Steptronic??

No increase in performance nor comfort. MAybe a slim mini little bit..thats it. unless...its a merc stepronic..ah HA!!

are you the gal or the guy? ke ke


aiyo, i thought is a simple switch. didnt know it is so troublesome. oh forget it then.
what about changing gear ratio?
 
Re: 5 speed to 6 speed

also dont bother, save the moolah..
actually the E46 318 drivetrain is pretty good. The gear ratio is that tall and u have a final drive of 3.91 for a quick pick up but losing out a bit on the top end. It's a good car:)
 
Re: 5 speed to 6 speed

Re: 5 speed to 6 speed

why dont you consider the all-new lexus 8 speed gearbox? since you're gonna spend all that money and effort, might as well go all the way!
