Standard M3 SMG to Manual?

thegingerninja · 10-08-2012, 09:33 AM

I've heard that changing a CSL to a manual is a complete nightmare with the software - but I'm assuming that is because the CSL never came as a manual.

So...is it easier / possible to convert a standard M3 SMG to a manual, by simply changing the ECU to a manual version. (Or is it just not that simple)

Does anyone know anybody who has successfully done this? The plan is to build a standard E46 M3 for VLN group N. Prefer a manual for simplicity and reliability, but if we manage to find the perfect stolen recovered / CAT D that is an SMG - we would need to be able to convert to a manual.

I'm sure the Primate will be along soon................
