They are so much more machine like than the carrier mounted shifters.
Just a question, not a dig on the build. Build looks pretty cool so far.Jimmy P.

I loved the PMC shifter on the Aluminum Monster.
This go-round Im trying to keep it as silky smooth as I can get the OEM feel.
The solid stuff is definitely for the "fun" car and less for the daily car IMOSimon

yours all appears to be different due to RHD and other factors. the original location for the diag port on my car was at the front d/s of the engine near the AFM. your relays are in a different spot than mine were from factory too.

Originally posted by spiDmang View PostVery nice! I'll need to look into that trans. Im sure it's alot cheaper than the G420 from the E46 M3?
i do know that most people consider this trans to be superior to the getrag in the e46 m3. the input shaft has more splines (can't remember how many) and it also has a dual front mount for the shift carrier so it has less slop even with standard rubber bushings. i've also heard this trans is smoother and more appealing to use but i can't say for sure as i havent driven an e46 m3 and 6spd 330i at the same time to compare. this ZF also came behind an s54 just like the getrag, but only in the z4 M.
here's a photo of all of my stuff ready for powder. reinforced subframe, custom trans mount, GC converted strut housings, and sway bar brackets. i'm trying to decide if i should go boring black or something cool like purple for these components. the general nature of the build is sort of subtle but i think on somewhat hidden parts like this a better "pop" color might be cool.
