E30 Gearbox

[Kieran]

Need to source a decent used/refurbished box for an '87 M3 E30, any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Kieran

Have you asked the same question on Mtorque and E30 zone?

[Kieran]

Not yet, this was my first thought, thanks for the suggestion..

Have you tried board.s14power.com or www.bavarianboard.co.uk

Can yours be rebuilt? Or do you just need a gearbox??

[Kieran]

The assessment from the workshop indicates the box is not viable to rebuild, there may be some salvageable parts but the cost effective option seems to be sourcing a used box.

Thanks again for the various links, very useful.

does anyone know rufly what sort of budget you'd need to rebuild an e30 m3 gearbox?

I've got one in my garage with knackard layshaft bearings (broke a number of years ago) and the 2nd hand replacement box is slightly noisy, tempted to have the old one rebuilt so it's ready to go in.
