    Alright so I think I covered most of what I needed looking at majestic, and it will be far more cost effective to go with the 5 speed and get a new 4.7 FD. As to do the 6 speed with the 4.3, I will need a new z3 main shaft, a new 4.3 FD, and to replace the 2nd gear set. To do the 5 speed I will simply need to get a 4.7 FD. Of course there are other things I need for both, but they are equal for both.
    This is what I have so far:
    • 1x plastic oil baffle
    • 2x dowel pin
    • 1x speed sensor
    • 15x case bolts (95701-08040-08)
    • 2x case bolts, longer ones (95701-0806508)
    • 1x speed sensor bolt (already on my current trans)
    • 2x shift assembly bolts (already on my current trans)
    • 1x shift assembly bolt, long (already on my current trans)
    • 1x main shaft needle bearing (91001-PPP-005)
    • 1x counter shaft needle bearing (91003-PPP-004) - but as per DIY recommendation I will use the updated bearing
    • 1x main shaft seal (91216-PG1-005)
    • 1x main shaft ball bearing, top of shaft (91002-RAS-003) - Not sure if I can use this on the 5 speed main shaft or not

    This is what I decided I needed from looking at majestic:
    • 1x dowel pin (94301-14200)
    • 1x oil seal, trans case (91205-PL3-B01)
    • 1x oil guide plate (21104-PPP-000)
    • 1x magnet - not sure if I should replace mine or not, it has a lot of crap on it, maybe I can just clean it though?
    • 1x counter shaft needle bearing (91003-PPS-003) - this is the revised bearing the DIY suggests you use
    • 1x counter shaft seal (91206-RCT-003)
    • 1x counter shaft oil plate (21103-PPP-000)
    • 1x reverse bolt (95801-10050-08)
    • 1x reverse bolt washer (90401-PG1-000)
    • 2x LSD bearings (91005-PPS-003)
    • 1x MFactory LSD
    • 1x 4.7 FD (41233-RPT-010)
    • 10x FD bolts (90017-PYZ-000) - unless the MFactory LSD will come with its own?
    • 1x Ball bearing counter shaft top (91004-PPP-014)

    So just to make sure my thought process is right, I will be using the 5 speed main shaft, the 6 speed counter shaft with 5 speed gears on it +6th gear, and using this with the 4.7 FD which is compatible with the 6 speed counter shaft. I just need to find out if the z3 main shaft top ball bearing can be used on the 5 speed main shaft as I have a brand new one.

    What are your thoughts? Am I missing anything? And can anyone explain to me how I decide which shims to use? Or is that something that cannot be decided till I start assembling and check clearances with a feeler gauge?

    Is it just me, or is the dump much quieter with boost control enabled? Also is it supposed to not flutter till after quick spool is over?

    The dump is quieter due to the gate not being all the way open and the flutter was throughout for me

    I like it!

    Ok once quick spool is off it flutters.

    Also I took a closer look at my z3 counter shaft that is damaged like the fd so I'm gonna have to replace that too. Now it's probably gonna cost close to the same to do either the 5 speed with the 4.7 or the 6 with the 4.3 :think:

    :meh: I think I have a boost leak. Hopefully fixing it doesn't cause the creep to come back....

    Damn , it must be running on the manifold now that you wrapped the manifold, it was close before when I didn't have it wrapped
