Im going to check out a s38b36 tomorrow and the guy selling wants 1k extra for the 280 tranny. Are the benefits of this tranny worth its price tag. Id imagine its more robust then the m30b35 tranny. Keep in mind that i would couple my 260/6 from my m30 swap with the s38 if I didnt end up purchasing the tranny. Input please.

I guess i could consider that option if it was necessary. http://www.mye28.com/viewtopic.php?p=973324 I would like to not have to buy a new tranny though. From what i've read the 260/6 bolts right up to the s38.
G260 e34 have these ratio ....
1=3.83 2=2.20 3=1.40 4=1.00 5=0.81
the G280 is a bit little longer so ,, either another driveshaft .. or shorten the one under the car
G280 ratio ... 1=3.53 // 2=2.08 // 3=1.35 // 4=1.00 // 5=0.81
you can see that 1st and 2nd are just a margin longer,, on the G280 and with 600+ revs on the S38 vs M30B35 this would give a good accleration from 0standstill or 10mph rollin start
this is a bolt onLast edited by ttrousdell; 02-03-2012, 09:42 PM.

I had a g265 in my m30 e30.
It was a great transmission, plenty tough enough, only problem was that it leaked oil from in between the case sections.///Monstrosity. (OO≡≡[][]≡≡OO)
Aside from showing yourself to be offensive, lacking experience and ignorant in the ways of business, you're also illiterate and imprudent. Beyond that, your sense of liability is severely impaired.
