Hi Guys,

I'm new here and this is my first Post (and my first BMW engine swap). My E30 originally came with the M20B20 coupled with a Getrag240 transmission. I'm using the 240 for my swap and was wondering if the 240 would need a special brace (like the one sold by Garagistics) or would stock Brace do?

I realized the E30 320i was not sold in the USA so everyone keeps saying the G240 will not have this challenge but that's the G240 on the 318 (M42)??. Would the G240 for the M20 be different?

I'm looking at getting the Brace from Garagistics and I dont want to spend that when i dont need it as I live outside the USA and returns will be more expensive than the part itself.

Any ideas will be appreciated!!!
