Room for a transaxle?

[Dr. Dorito]

Forgive me if this is a silly question but if someone had the time and money would there be enough room for a full rear transaxle in an E92 M3? Has anyone done this already? A forum search yielded no results.

The GT car obviously has one from Xtrac but I would assume the rear subframe in the street car would need modification if not outright replacement. Would the rear seats and/or trunk space need to be sacrificed? The other question would then be how traction control could be implemented, eg a standalone TCS and maybe dummy inputs to the stock system if that is to be maintained.

rear floor would need to be raised, fuel tank removed, etc. lots of work when a dg500 could just be adapted.

DG500 is the move like Amraz said.. you would also use a standalone ecu at this point to control traction control.

Most of my intention is moving some weight to the back, not even necessarily going with a sequential gearbox. That and just making something unique. I'm also thinking about a dry sump with the reservoir in the back.
