Now that I have the CSLs on my touring the BBS RS reps needed to go onto Zach's 328i so we fitted them today. Wheel gap will be fixed with coil overs in the coming months.:thumbs:

W.r.t. to auto to manual swap, why go for a 6 speed ? Should a 5 speed not suffice, or are they scares to come by ?

There are plenty 5 speed boxes out there and they are alot cheaper than 6spd boxes. Reason for 6spd is we are planning on keeping the auto diff ratio, just adding an LS unit to it, 6th gear brings the rpm down alot on the freeway.

I see. So it would mean 'n bit higher top end as well or not ?

Thought I'd bump the thread.

She's up for sale if anyone is keen. I'm emigrating so she'll need a new home.
PM me if you're interested.
