      I NEVER say to search, just not my thing, but honeslty, this is a VERY frequently covered topic. Look around, you'll find more than enough info!

        As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
        You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

                nope, not possible without major work. might as well buy an e36 to begin with.

                    no one has ever put an m3 engine into an e30... it cant be done. dont even try to search for it cuz you wont find any information on it.

                      It's a known fact that you cant retrofit bmw motors.

                      The only motor that fits is something from the GM family of v8's.

                        Ive also heard a good swap is the Dodge Cummins Diesel engine with the allison transmission. why the hell would you want to put a bmw engine in a bmw?? thats just ludicrous.

                            The hardest part of this swap is fitting the cummins diesel cat under the car and tastefully making the exhaust pipes vertical.
