steinbachphoto's pictures | are the manual trannys all the same? I have an imported e30 320i cabrio from Japan, and if any of you have looked at the e30's in the Japan auctions, you would know that it's hard to find a 5-spd equipped one. I am interested in swapping my auto tranny for a manual tranny. Would I have to find one that is cabrio specific? or are all the coupe/sedan/cabrio ones the same? Also, what are all the parts I need? Does anyone have any price estimates? Thanks for the help!

Blackice's pictures | I believe the Transmissions are the same, and the drive shafts are different lengths to fit the different models. |
