: Someone told me that the m3 e30 4 cylinder engine and transmission will fit into the 320i without having to change the subframe. Does anyone know if this is true?

It's much cheaper and easier to swap in a small six, since the E21 body was offered by the factory with this engine, and 325 motors are plentiful and cheap in junkyards, while E30 M3 motors are not.
