[QUOTE="B33mEr, post: 499545, member: 13609"] Just to follow up ... I did ask an SMG owner in the US about reusing our existing gearbox to convert to manual he said he and his mechanic took several month to research on that matter and found out that it's not possible simply because there is no mounting point to mount the gear linkage ... In other word the gearbox casing is different even though the internal parts are exactly the same found in the manual transmission :( The only good news is that we can reuse our existing clutch and flywheel :) [url]http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=367528[/url] The quest goes on :4: [/QUOTE]
