How many inches do I cut? 5spd?

[Brandon73fjord]

I read somewhere 2 9/16". Is this correct?

Did you check the 5-speed conversion article at FAQ section?

[Brandon73fjord]

Yes, I read the article. They bought the aardvark kit.

There are few more write ups, did you try this one: http://www.bimmers.com/02/

look for the go fast updates section.

Just a note, if you haven't yet gotten your driveline shortened, the shop i worked with had an elegant combination they put together for me. They included a sliding spline section from an e30 driveshaft combined with the 02 driveshaft. So it's able to take up any inconsistencies in final installation.

good luck
