Thank you,I`ve always wonder was type it was.
I have not now`d before you told me now

Gabi_323i-

Cut out the middle of an e30 cross member and weld it in the middle of the e21 cross member-fit the diff.
Build a jig first an it will fit wery nice

Rasp1-

Yes the color belongs to an Audi-thats ok.
Have you ever seen a e21 with that color before now??
That`s the thing,I wan`t it spesial-no way around.

But if it make you better the hole car getting in molecyles next winter with new bodywork and paintjob.
I was so unlucky last year when the hole engine room caught on fire. Damn it was lucky i killed the fire so quick.
I haved fixed it as you see,but i`m not happy yet.
So the car is getting a makeup next year.

Thank you all for the compliments,keep on posting.

And the engine working wery great,I have outrun e30 M3`s E36M3`s and e34 M5`s s36/s38 easy,
so yes-the engine get mee to the grossery shop pretty fast...

Yes it fits,but you have to change the drive shaft-they must be 22mm shorter than the original because the M3 diff is bigger.
I have shortend them myself and it works great.

wow your car is hot. but judging from the pictures i think there is a little saggy gap at the side of your hood (picture #3). your car is awesome; clean and tidy.
