Iemand enig idee wat me te wachten staat

En iemand die het zelf gedaan heeft bij een Amerikaanse E36 325i: http://www.dtmpower.net/forum/e36-3-ser ... -remo.htmlDump that Slushbox
I was wondering what would be needed in a automatic transmission to manual gearbox swap in a 1997 Z3 1.9, how much it would cost, and where I can find the parts and service.

Good idea. The car would probably love you forever, like removing a thorn from a lion's paw. You would need the gearbox, flywheel, clutch parts, pedal assembly parts, interior console parts, shifter assembly, driveshaft and the engine electronic control unit. The original could be reprogrammed, but then you would need to find a manual Z3 1.9 to bring to the dealer with the subject vehicle so it could "donate" its programming.
Some parts, such as the clutch parts, should be purchased new. Used parts can be purchased from any BMW dismantler. A good BMW dismantler would be able to sell you a package deal with everything you need. Check out www.bimmerssouth.com and www.zionsvilleautosport.com. Cost depends upon labor charges in your geographic location. I would estimate labor time to be approximately 20 hours.
You would need to find an experienced and well-equipped independent BMW shop to perform this swap. Dealerships would probably not be interested. To find a good independent, your best bet is to join the BMW Car Club of America (www.bmwcca.org) and consult the advertisements in your local chapter newsletter, attend chapter events and get word-of-mouth recommendations from the chapter technical representative and your fellow club members.

Nou is de Z3 absoluut niet foto geniek maar ik vind de aflopende kont gewoon niet mooi van de Roadster. Het lijkt wel beter met hardtop maar een qpe is echt toch veel mooier 8)
