M30 swap into e30 with an auto

[Bimmer_man]

So before you start the hate. This car is going to be a second car for my gf and I. She can't fully press the e30 clutch pedal she's really short. So I'm going to install the m30 with an auto so she can enjoy driving an e30.

So my question is has anyone done that and if so j just need to know the correct drive shaft to use.

"n3nyongmini" did an e30m30 swap using the e34's transmission bell housing mated to the e30's automatic transmission. I even got a chance to see it. About a year later his wife made him sell it.

This would be the way I'd go - existing transmission with M30 bell housing. Then you don't need to worry about the driveshaft etc.

My wife had the same problem with our pre-facelift e30 coupe. In our post-facelift e30 4 door, she has no issues with the clutch, so the seat must come further forward.
