Will a dogleg box from m3.5 go into a 325i

[Saj]

Hello guys, Just a quick question.

Looking for a dogleg gearbox is trying to find a needle in a haystack. 1 of my mates has just brocken is m3.5 and said that the geaybox may fit.
Not to sure. Ive had a look around on the net and the only answer that i got sort of are that the bottom ends on the same but with bigger pistons.

Has anybody tried this convertion, if so how did you get on and did it fit.

Cheers Guys

id like to know too or if the e30 m3 dogleg fits

m30 is a big six the m20 is a little 6 - as far as i know the boxes are not interchangeable

no the bolt pattern is different on an m535i or m3 dogleg box

you don't really want one anyway the gearchange is not as bad as people make out but they break easy

The E30 M3 dogleg box can be fitted as I have exactly that fitted to my 325 racer & the box is stronger & better for track use, I can give you the no. of the guy that does these conversions if you email me
