A friend of mine who now lives in the UK did that with a genuine E30 M3 and 4.0 BMW v8 from a 540 with the very rare 6 speed BMW manual trans. RHD conversion as well. He reckons it was the best car he ever ownd, and he's had lots! I would love to have one like it one day, but the parts to do it are exxy here in Aus.

E30/2JZ would be easier and possibly more fun but not sound as good.
