    S50 Swap Question

    One question about my S50 swap. Yes, I HAVE looked around for a week or so and can't find a guaranteed answer. The forum is the last place I ask for these questions, because I know they are buried deep somewhere (maybe).

    Anyways, I am getting a swap with the driveshaft and transmission included, which is great for me. Problem is, I love my limited slip differential and would rather not like to sell it away and buy another. Is there any way to get around that, or convert the driveshaft to fit?

    Oh, and I believe the clutch out of the M20 will NOT fit, correct?

    Based on your question I assume the driveshaft is a 6 bolt and not 4? If it's 4 it should bolt up with the e30 csb.

      I would assume. It's a stock E36 M3 driveshaft. Are there adapters?

        Stock m3 shaft tells us nothing, if it has 4 bolts on the differential side it will bolt right in, if it's 6 bolt cv style it's not gonna fit.
