[QUOTE="Chris Cab, post: 42784, member: 109"] The Getrag 240 (318i, 320i gearbox) is a weak gearbox, that typically has problems with upshifting to 3rd. The Getrag 260 (325i) is rock solid, and arguably the best E30 Gearbox. It can handle massive power from the likes of turbo'd M20's, M30's & S50, S52 power (blown or N/A). The below link is to Metric Mechanic and under the "transmission" section it covers, at great lengths, the various BMW gearboxes, incl all E30 variants. [url=http://www.metricmechanic.com/tabcon2.html]Metric Mechanic[/url] If you change your gearbox, you will have to also change your driveshaft & rear differential. [/QUOTE]
