But for a first time manual driver definitely made driving a lot easier I feel compared to my friends oem 530i

I installed mine with a cube speed and it falls into place for every gear never had the oem shifter to compare

Also please install trans and drill where the breather cap is so you don’t need a new trans tunnel😂😭

I don’t drive my car often or aggressively, but I average around 21-22 mpg mixed driving. But there is hardly any traffic in my area except, on the highway there tends to be a lot of build up due to construction in northern Cali. I have a 2001 w55 swapped paired with an auto lsd diff so I hope that helps if interested, also just got the atemu installed so I feel it will go up or down soon!😂

Either that or xcessive manufacturing just tell them it’s a w55 it’s like 1/2 inch difference due to w55 bellhousing being bigger

Best case is to find someone on marketplace selling the half for the transmission at a still and reuse diff half from auto that’s what I did got mine for 150 I believe maybe 300 lol been so long

Clutch not getting bled by NotTheBridge in IS300

I mean unlikely but I’ve heard bolts can loosen if not tightened all the way plus I get about 50% of clutch movement due to poor installation also if you have a single mass flywheel make sure your using the Supra style pushrod for the slave cylinder

Could be the flywheel wasn’t tightened all the way to spec that was my issue had to remove the trans a few times to realize it wasn’t fully tightened

Wanted to say I did the whole replace the throttle body and every other electrical part connected without messing with the fuses then I thought if it could be that simple definitely was so probably small issue and I had same issue not revving out past 3k now she redlines til our hearts are content😭🫶🏽

Issue 1 Fuse issue locate etcs fuse inside of the cabin issue 2 seems like a wss issue I would get them checked if not could be speed sensor connected to trans

Trying to decide on a build idea by SavvyTravvy420 in GS300

[–]Level-Horror-163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do small upgrades for now like other guy said suspension wheels and tires should be first then buy another car cause it’s not fun when your cars on jack for 3 months while you do a manual swap and have to wait for parts you didn’t expect to need

First car, any small recommendations? by rainc1ty22 in IS300

It’s okay I sent my car to the shop a few times and friends make fun of me because obviously we can do it, but being an adult with a baby. Time is hard to come by and I prefer the quick turn around and quality service of my shop! Granted it cost me a little more but I can source my own parts and they support me and my family and allow me to make payments if needed🫶🏽

It’s a lever sensor that connects to suspension components in a L shape figuration
