Hello all,
I just made my account on r3v today.. anyway,
I would like to swap an m50 into my e30. I would like to use a 6spd transmission but dont like the 420g. It's too expensive and too diffiicult to work on.
From here, my options are a gs6-37bz (6pd from e90 330i) or a gs6-53bz (6spd from e90 m3). Obviously i would like to choose the one from the m3/335i because they are abundant and relatively cheap. I know I would need a different driveshaft.
For reference, a zf302z (e36 m3 5spd) on an m50 in an e30 needs a 96-98 manual 328i driveshaft. A 420g needs an automatic driveshaft from the same year and model.
So my question to you is: What driveshaft and center support bearing do i need to use with an m50 swapped e30 with the gs6-53bz trans out of an e90 m3/335i? and i need the "bz" trans for gasoline engines, correct? Thank you!
