540iM Technic Sport Automatic to Manual conversion (archive)

[ Follow Ups ] [ M5 (E34) Message Board ] [ Msg. Board FAQ ]

Posted by SB on May 01, 2002 at 12:09:56:

I have a 1995 540i M Technic Sport (M5 without the engine). Unfortunately it is an automatic (5spd). Takes away the edge.

Anybody have ideas on whether it is worth converting to a 6 speed and how best to get this done (I'm not a skilled mechanic)

Or perhaps there is a way to make better use of the auto transmission, some kind of "tiptronic type" conversion or something similar? Any ideas?
