The Getrag 420G transmission in the e46 M3 and others was designed to handle the torque load placed on it by the S54 and similar motors. The ZF Type H in our cars apparently was not. Fact is it was added to Z4M cars because the Getrag would not fit. I have never seen the torque spec on BMW part # GS6-37BZ (ZF Type H), however, many have speculated its not up to the job or Getrag e46 M3 unit.
