kind of no i'll have to change to an rb or some other box for the track but was feelin bit experimental today so took the bell housing of my sr box and started stripping a zf of a 525 wit big millage... an adptor plate wont work as splines to far back on shaft of the zf but am confidend that we should be able to cut and weld the bell housing ok, the 325 clutch disc fits perfect on the sr pressure palate, the release bear is a bit small but will do, i'll try check if an m3 one is bigger during the week if i can, any one no if it has been done, looked into gear ratios and think it should be sweet for track car, probly way to little top end for road use

have the car mostly stripped out now, only dash bar and heaer box left inside in it,will be getting caged next weekend hopefully,
