Alright, I have a question about an m30 swap. I've found a completely rebuilt m30 for 250 bucks from one of my buddies with wiring harness and ecu to drop in my e30. The only problem is if like to keep my car automatic for the time being but I have no idea what steps I need to take to complete the tranny. What do I need to get as far as auto transmission and wiring and what work will I be doing wiring wise?

You will need an automatic transmission from the donor car the m30's coming from, as well as the auto's ecu and wiring harness to make things as easy as possible.
The auto is physically larger than the manual so I'm unsure of clearance issues through the e30's tunnel.

Aside from showing yourself to be offensive, lacking experience and ignorant in the ways of business, you're also illiterate and imprudent. Beyond that, your sense of liability is severely impaired.
Test fitted motor alone for fire-wall and radiator clearance on goodnight mounts and stock M20 bushings. Doesn't look like it will fit under the hood and putting a puller fan looks out of the question, but I will try and I am running a/c. The motor is tilted forward a little tho and the radiator isn't mounted up all the way. (i forgot the mounting hardware at the house) https://flic.kr/p/oiqXyn https://flic.kr/p/ogtK3N https://flic.kr/p/nZaAxQ
