Great write up and beautiful mod you did. Definitely worth every penny. Also love the fact that you took this swap on yourself, it is not only a great learning experience, but will bring you even closer to the car, if not you already loved it haha.
You're building a perfect e39 M5, keep up the good work
indeed shifting is ancient technology - so is a fuel burning engine.. I happen to like both :)

Thanks Aaron, working on this car has been incredibly rewarding for me. The best part about the mods is feeling the way they improve some aspect of the driving experience. I cannot help but smile every time I drive it. Next step is equal length headers, ecu flash, and intake. Will be a while before I can afford all of that but the car should put out 450+ hp when I'm done.
Other good news you might be interested in, I found a sponsor for the 951 and I will be keeping the car . She will be receiving a new paint job (most likely meteor grey), refurbished/rebuilt engine, suspension mods, racing seats, etc. Will be looking to keep it street legal and reliable with a track/autox bias. Cannot wait!!! Of course I will post a full write up and pictures before and after.

Oh im happy to hear you have decided to keep her!! I'm still sad i sold my 944S way back (it was my first car). Wonderful news, looking forward to your progress on that one as well.
