tranny question

[Gadea]

out of the few different choices of manual transmissions for the M30 swap, what´s preferred? I, mean, based on personal experiences and such.
I´m about to purchase one (it´s pretty much the last "big" item I need to finish the swap) and have to choose between the 260/5, 260/6, and I also found someone willing to sell a 265. I heard somewhere the 265 is the hot one. Thanks guys.

I prefer the 260/6 because I keep my
stock drive shaft and mounts, it's smother then the 265, and
it's a whole lot cheaper if you don't buy something with the "m3" mark up.

Depending on the mounts used the g265 is a little less "plug-and-play". Not a major concern though.

[Gadea]

thanks for the input guys. If someone else wants to chime in, it´s welcome. Guess I´m going for the 260/6 then.

Interested in this as well. Good info so far

Good thing doesn't come easy, G 265 !

Really? Never heard anyone say that before.

[LowR3V'in]

I can definitely feel the difference. Perhaps it might be luck
but that's my opinion.

[george graves]

Interesting - thanks.

[Gadea]

got a 260/6! it´s not in yet, hopefully soon it will!
thanks a lot for all the input, guys!

Look like Schmidt Modern Line's to me.
