Notes
* U shaped mount plate may not be needed. I used it as trans and car had provisions for it.
(1)P/N of OE e34 shifter, shift arm and selector rod. Shift arm and selector rod specific to ZF trans. Ended up cutting OE e34 shifter down 1.125"
(2) P/N's for reference only. Many types and colors to choose from.
(3) this bearing is 30mm taller to compensate for difference of flywheel thickness. It is an Euro e21 323i bearing.
(4) starter pinion gear required to mesh with m20 flywheel. Possible to use complete m20 starter as well which is what I did.
(5) autos use a starter relay. Manuals use a jumper in it's place. Can be jumped with a simple wire. Use OE jumper for factory look.
(6) I bought one of these for the e30 and it has a great weight and feel to it. Very well priced.
(7) I have purchased two of these from the same seller. They fit very well and seem to use very good materials. Under $20 shipped from UK.
(8) I used an M20 starter.
(9) I forgot to order it… Doh!
(10) Machine clutch surface, remove material from back side and re-balance.
