I just bought a very pucka little 320i for Ԛ£150 but it has two problems. The gear box is shagged (makes a horrid whinning in 3rd and 5th) and the rear drums are partially ceased. Wondering first of all how easy it is to replace the gearbox, as I have a spare 320i with good running gear, and how easy the drums are to remove from the rear swing arms and/or if I need any special tools or there are any major part revisions to be aware of as the spare car is an A reg and the one I am fixing up is a D reg.
Finally, I have a set of lowering springs on my breaker that I want to swap over and i was wondering roughtly how big a job it is on an e30 to swap the dampers and coils as one (wasn't too much of a biggies on my 535 so hopefully its much the same set up)
Will be most greatful for any help (as I want to get her sorted as soon as possible as she is a present to replace my brothers nackered Carina)
