Re: Calling all current E46 M3 manual gearbox owners
It's a significant risk. The work is simple.. many places can do it, but the different gearbox is pretty obvious when you drive it... probably a little too obvious. Unless there is sufficient evidence that I can get away with it, it's not...
Re: Calling all current E46 M3 manual gearbox owners
Apparently it's not the matter of who does it, rather whether the manufacturer (BMW) is willing to provide certification that the car is suitable for the modification. So far, no luck.
Re: Calling all current E46 M3 manual gearbox owners
Yeah I considered that. But last I checked both BMW and Munich Auto cannot provide the certification that LTA requires :(
Re: Calling all current E46 M3 manual gearbox owners
Thanks, but I want one with a manual gearbox. Unless LTA relaxes their (extremely stringent) rules on gearbox swaps, I'll be stuck with the SMG.
As I mentioned on another thread though, if that car came with a manual gearbox, I would grab...
Re: Calling all current E46 M3 manual gearbox owners
bump..
For current owners, it won't hurt to know if your valuation of your car is the same as mine.. after all you would still reserve the right to not sell..
Still looking for the few remaining owners who might be interested in selling their 2001-2006 E46 M3 manual coupes.
Mileage, level of customisation, colour, wear etc are not important as I intend to restore the car. 8-)
As this car is relatively rare in Singapore, the price will be very much...
Re: WTB: BMW M3 (E46 platform)
I won't go for the cabriolet unfortunately. Thanks for the link though.
As for why the E46? I owned a manual E46 330Ci in the states several years back and loved it, so when I returned to SG I went for the E92 M3. As everyone was so full of praise for the DCT I...
Hi as the subject line says I'm looking for a used BMW M3 coupe (E46 platform).
I would prefer a facelifted manual version, so preferably 2005-2006 model year, but I am flexible on both the model years as well as transmission.
If the car isn't in a good shape I intend to restore it so I...
Re: [you], If you could own the top BMW model now...which one and why?
Probably an E92 M3 with a manual gearbox and a CDV delete, Eisenmann Sport exhaust, PFC brakes, and UUC shifter...
I'm already so close, just stuck with a stupid DCT due to my own silly mistake... :(
Note to self...
Re: Bought the MY09 E92 M3 coupe
sorry, forgot to mention another VERY useful site. RealOEM.com Online BMW Parts Catalog
It has all the part numbers of all OEM parts. use that to find part numbers like those for the Y-cable
Search getbmwparts by the part numbers.
There's probably truth in...
Re: Bought the MY09 E92 M3 coupe
Yup, fortunately Y cable is a must. Just don't get it from PML. I haven't been back there since the day I picked up the car haha :)
As for tinting, it depends on whether you wanna stay legal or not. Legally speaking, its possibly only V kool and 3M which...
Re: Bought the MY09 E92 M3 coupe
High end audio system just refer to the premium Harman Kardon system I believe.
Velour is a fancy word of sorts for that smooth carpet material that's quite commonly used.
High beam assistantance turns your high beams on/off accordingly depending on...
Re: Bought the MY09 E92 M3 coupe
I've heard some pretty good stuff about the Vanguard exhaust,. I'm going with Eisenmann as that's the only factory where I can cut out the middle-man. Well, a profit-earning middle man at least.
There are lots of exhausts out there, Supersprint, Remus, UUC...
