The E46 M3, E46 330 or the Z4 trans would be the better option since the Euro 6-spd is more costly .
When I was looking around for prices last summer I saw them as low as $1500 which is very doable .
YOu would need a custom shortened driveshaft and the trans would be rotated 10degrees off .
You'd have to compensate that with a bent shift linkage .
Other than that it seems pretty straightforward .

I would assume that you would need everything from the flywheel to the tail shaft of the 6-speed stuff since the clutch thickness may be different and need a different sized TO bearing, although you could just put stuff next to each other and measure and check.My 2.9L Build!

the six speed g420 is basically a close ratio 5 speed with an overdrive. the final drive ratio should be based on what ever the person doing the swap's goals are. if you want highway cruising at low rpm, perhaps a 3.46 or 3.23. if you want make it off the line quickly, maybe 4.10 is what you want.sigpic
