Re: [BMWParts] <e36> WTB e36M3 ZF 5 speed, LS differential, driveshaft, and halfshafts.

Don't be tempted with a 6pd, my Grp N racing contacts tell me that the 5spd
is much stronger than the 6spd.  The 6spd is great for street but not robust
for racing, with your turbo go for the 5 spd.  Fortunately, low mileage 5s
go for 1500.
