2001 E53 4.4L 6MT swap?
Good day all!
Some of yous may know my other thread concerning my 2004 project... Well, I was considering doing a manual trans conversion to eliminate the auto trans issues I have been plagued with... But all the information concerning it doesn't allow the conversion to keep AWD and be reasonably cost effective... So, I'm going to keep waiting until I figure out that little part of the vehicle. However, I was looking at a 2003 4.4L, but I found a 2002 4.6is that would be a great candidate for a RWD 6 speed manual trans conversion... I've loved both E53's I've owned, but they were both 4.4L and no manual... I don't NEED AWD here and it may save me some fuel costs in the long run... I already have a 540i 6 speed trans in my garage. Yep, I have a spare 6 speed... and most of the parts are becoming available in the pull-it-yards. So, the reason for this post. I wanna know what yous think about a 4.4L 6 speed manual E53 (RWD)...... Thanks all! EDIT::: I ended up getting the Imola Red 2002 4.6is... Cheers!
