Why choose BMW gearboxes?
Availability and price. Millions of produced cars and their worldwide availability guarantee the accessibility of spare parts. Parts, as well as complete gearboxes, are easily available at ASO service centers and on the secondary market.
Durability and reliability. BMW ZF / Getrag gearboxes have been successfully used for many years in both amateur and professional motorsport. They can handle very high torque (some models 1000Nm+), while guaranteeing high reliability. They are ideal for SWAPs in high-power projects intended for daily use.
Speed and convenience. When using the new generation automatic gearboxes ZF 8HP or Getrag DCT DKG, we gain an ultra-fast gear shift action time (0.2 seconds).

PMC Motorsport BMW M60 - GS6-53DZ 6-Speed Adapter Installation Manual
!!! PMC Motorsport parts are intended for motorsport and use on racetracks. For installation by professionals using appropriate tools in workshops adapted for this purpose !!!
The flywheel was made of aluminum and cast iron and is fully recyclable.
It requires the use of a PMC gearbox adapter (the adapter only fits the ECE / LHD version) and a flywheel from the BMW M60 or M62 version with an automatic gearbox (do not use BMW 24 40 1421305). The starter remains BMW OE.
