    Need HELP, M20 gearbox optiones

    Hello E30 enthusiasts.
    I have kind off huge problem with gearboxes.
    The thing is i was finish with my M20B31 turbo build all went well did the dyno mapping when all that was done finally were able to get on street with that thing, then i stared to get big problems destroying two getrags 240s and one getrag 260, and 4 propp shafts, getting a little tired to keep destroying things easy. I dont really know propably my gearboxes was in some way bad or what!
    I was thinking to try to get g265 was unable to find one!

    So my question is what or what kind off gearbox swapp u guys runing?
    How about Gs6-53dz does it fit to an m20?
    Other options?

    Not really planning to spend thousands and thousands off money on gearbox!
    I hope someone have some ideas
    Thanks!!

    The diesel GS6-37DZ has the same tilt angle as the M20.
    But it was only available in Europe in the 3-series 320d, 318d. It's pretty cheap there, but shipping is expensive.
    Also, it must be the older variant without the stop-start system as it has a proper starter location.

      Depends on where you are- here on the west coast of the Disunited States of some long- dead white cartographer.
      I'd find an E46B30 manual box and make a stronger driveshaft.

      And don't drop the clutch in first.

      now, sometimes I just mess with people. It's more entertaining that way. george graves

          So i found info on GS6-37DZ it can handle about 400nm, So now im more interested on GS6-53DZ cuz it can take well over 600nm

          Can someone chime in a bit on this, i found info that GS6-53DZ has same angle, so in teory if i Use 330D flywheel and clutch setup gearbox shuld fit without anny modification, only the shifter carrier must make shorter and modded rear mount brace! Right??
