    And the great Mike Radowski said a turbo in an E36 is a sadness remover.

    Why it’s nice in here. Where is Monica with the coffee. Make sure she’s wearing a mask

    I saw Butters a couple of weeks ago. He was not wearing a mask. I will be going down to his shop again in the next few days because my inspections expire in April. My E36 is on the lift as I try to install a CAE shifter. It has been a pain in the rear with the GS6-53 6 speed conversion because the adapter plate rotates the trans a little off center and the plate takes up about 3/4” so the selector rod has to account for that as well as the angle. The only gear that is an issue is reverse. I have cut and welded the rod several times now but still can’t get reverse.

    Dam that sucks. I didn't realize there was that much of an issue with that swap. I thought they had it all sorted with the kits. A few places now offer it. I'm looking into going the DCT route once the kits become available. They got them working with the shifter as well as paddles on the steering wheel.

    DCT would be pretty awesome in a turbo E36. Must be the DCT from an F80M3 that is used. What sort of torque will it hold? The Dodson clutch upgrade is pretty expensive from what I understand.

    From what I understand the kit will include the transmission, upgraded clutches and controller for the transmission for around $5000 all in. They're the F8x DCTs so they hold up a good amount of power.

    Yep. I believe Mike R at Max Psi is doing that swap in his e46 m3. Super cool swap.

    Yea he has it working already in the car. Has the steering wheel setup with the SMG paddles to work with the DCT and the shifter working like a sequential basically. It's badass.

    I had Butters inspect my 08 E61 535xi today. He was not wearing a mask. He says Monster drinks give you immunity to Coronavirus. Don’t tell the Donald because he would announce it on the news and then there wouldn’t be any left for us.

    Well even if monster drinks help a tiny bit, he's drank enough to withstand nuclear fallout. Lol

    Glad to see there is some activity happening back in the NE area. Been way to quiet and I so dislike FB format. Sucks there might be no racing this year.

    There's a bunch of other tracks opening around the country and just enforcing measures. I'm hoping New England Dragway does too. As of right now they're saying May 13th.

    I am alive and I spoke to GG recently. Have not heard from Butters in a couple of weeks but plan to stop by his shop next week. Few use forums these days. They prefer Facebook groups where the same questions get asked every week, there is no ability to search, scammers are everywhere and you are bombarded with ads because you have allowed Facebook to have all of your personal information.
