right, crunched into 2nd and left my gearbox on the ground surrounded by a load of oil.. woops. not only that but it burnt the clutch out too... not bad for only having the car a week lol.

anyway, i need to know which boxes i can fit onto the 320 block without changing too many parts (ie drift shafts).

help needed ASAP please as going scrappies in about 20 mins lol

Any 6 cylinder 'box will fit,the 4 pot engine sits at a different angle so their 'boxes will not fit. 320i and 325i use different 'boxes but they are interchangable,make sure you get all the gearchange linkage as that is where you will notice any difference.
