Dude, for $250 a FULL 5 speed swap would be a steal even if the trans was shot. List all the items included in the sale and I'll let you know if its worth it.

lol there's a bunch more here http://forum.e46fanatics.com/s...44764 anyway, not sure what parts of the swap you have so far. you'll need the manual brake pedal or you can cut your existing one. clutch pedal and clutch pedal cable, master cylinder, manual driveshaft. and make sure the speed sensor is still there. Idk I haven't done a manual swap yet, but I believe that's all.
