[QUOTE="The Necessary, post: 54653, member: 302"] Really? I thought the "converted" coupes had only their exteriors done, plus maybe a supercharger to back the looks up. I would be really suprised if a full transplant would be possible (cos a half, only the engine, transplant will never work- cos the engine's just not compatible with autoboxes (very high compression) and thus the software's gonna be confused). Not that I've had any first hand experience, mind, but there was this thread on e46fanatics.com about some guy (who had loads of time and technical knowledge and curiosity- like MIT or sometin) who "inherited" a full SMG "halfcut" and set about trying to transplant it into his e46 sedan. I don't think it worked. [/QUOTE]
