    I would like to see if anyone is interested in a driveshaft that I have had modified to run on an e46 with a 5 speed manual transmission and M3 rear end differential. The shaft is currently installed on my 2000 323 wagon, but I will be pulling it out soon to run a 6 speed. I believe it will fit any e46 with a 5 speed transmission and M3 rear end (non-M LSD conversion or M3 5 speed swap). The original m3 driveshaft has been lengthened 5" in front and mated to the original 323 5 speed flange. It retains the same center support, U joint, and CV as the m3 shaft. The shaft was lengthened and balanced at Driveline Services in north Atlanta. I would like to get $450 for it shipped or $400 for local Atlanta pick up. Should have it available by early to mid-April. For anyone who wants this setup to daily drive, the car runs at 3.5k rpm in 5th at 70mph. This is the reason I'm swapping for a 6 speed. Please keep commentary to yourself unless interested in buying the driveshaft. Thanks ...the only terrible photo I have. I can take a better shot of the part if interested. -Pat
