12 months/12k miles.

would have been around $1900 but I opted to have them update the valve body and replace the tc while they had it open.

I don't blame you. I wanted to do the same thing but didn't have the expertise.

Yes, you can use the e46 6 speed. You need to have a custom driveshaft made, along with some other items, but it's been done many times.
