Re: auto transmission to manual??

Bengzzz.....yours auto or manual?? hahaha.....

Tubi...u can try asking Guni to find for u and hook up with Collin's to install it lor.
maybe your auto trans can have some sort of contra value hopefully.
and ya, manual definitely more fun than auto....not for lazy lousy drivers like me..wait i throw clutch ah...haha.

just a point to note, its not just trans swap, other stuff such as clutch, flywheel and etc also involved and it should be already covered in the 3k+. impt thing is to find a supplier such as Bro milk where u can ensure that all the parts are available, don't swap halfway then realise short of 1 part or something....that sucks man

Bro i doubt you are able to do it with a budget of $3k with a new clutch set..With my experience in convertion it takes at least $4k to complete it with the internal centre facial..Just in case you encounter any problem during the convertion, i'll be more than happy to assist you..

If you are able to source for all the parts, the convertion should be completed within 3-5 days..
Recently one of our bimmer left his at the workshop for a month on this convertion..
 
Re: auto transmission to manual??

not me lah, its Bro Tubi....hehe...me no such luck, now back to MRT and cabs for the time being....life without my bimmer really sucks man...
anyway, that was a quote i got from one of the workshops a few months back, abt 3.3k and that was for E36, dunno abt other models.
 
Re: auto transmission to manual??

bro,

did and done for e36 and e46. PM me the engine type, 4-cyl or 6-cyl and i will give your the breakdown which i paid for both to convert.

also, if yours is e36 4-cyl is it 316/318/318is? cos' brakes frt and rear must be and should be upgraded too.

its a whole major work requiring upgrade of your DME and re-programming as well. also, rear-axle work if LSD is needed, etc.

bestest.
 
Re: auto transmission to manual??

3 to 4k sounds a bit cheap leh... just to share with you, a friend of mine recently down the auto box for a manual box in his forester.... total cost with recon parts... about 5.5k, including a 3 year warranty given by the installer
 
Re: auto transmission to manual??

the 3k i got quoted was for used trans and etc not recon parts, maybe thats why cheaper. anyway tubi, i remembered that was this other shop at ubi specialising in transmissions but i forgot the contact liao. any bro can help??

by the way, i rememberd Bro Panzer was also selling his manual trans a few months back. dunno if its still for sale but i think u can try contacting him.

Manual Conversion Set (Used) for E36 : - Sin$2200 (include Gearbox, Flywheel, Clutch Pump, Clutch Pedal, Prop Shaft, Rear Diff Axle, Gear Shift).

These are the major parts that you required.......... the rest are small small items like screws, bolt and nuts, pipes........ etc.......

Re: auto transmission to manual??

add 7% GST too....hehe but its still cheap rite? i mean thats the price out there, same price of parts i got quoted from US (shipping included). u can source around for workshops to do the labour or ask Bro Milk for recommendations
