I might be wrong, but I think the e36 one is either too big where it won't fit, or the holes don't line up because it's too long. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

This is just for my own curiosity, but why do you need to put the e30 guibo and center support? What is wrong with the e36 ones?

So I bought the s52 from M4tt and now i'm in need of installing it, first Transmission i understand that i can go for E46 6sp, or E36 M3 one. As money is getting more and more tight, I will go for E36 M3. I am transplanting it in a 91 318is.
questions:
1. is the E36 M3 tranny the one they call ZF? and is that the one i need? from what year car?
2. what else do i need to hunt for other than the transmission itself....drive shaft, flywheel, pilot bearing....? from what cars would i get those parts from, and is there part i need to use from my 318is?
2. you need an e36 driveshaft from a 328i or a m3 with the 3 bolt front. The other part of the question is you use the same set up as to what tranny you are using.
