Morning,

I'm currently looking at beginning to accumulate parts to swap over the Getrag 240 to ZF 320 on my 2002 Z3.
The reason for the swap is that I have changed my engine from 2.2 to 3.0, as I am potentially planning on a trackday or two I would ideally like the beefier gearbox to avoid any issues.

I have found a breaker with a 98' 2.8, ideally would like to get all the bits in one hit, so far I have on my list;
- Gearbox
- Propshaft
- Linkages

Should there be any other parts I add to the list?

Many thanks!

The prop should be okay. Unless you have a Sport with the LSD, the 2.2 168 diff is 8mm shorter. You should be okay but you might have to fit the 2.8 front half to the 2.2 rear.
Tbh I think you’ll be okay just fitting the 2.8 prop.
