the Mroadster complete rear end is a direct bolt-on. Once you have that install, Your pretty much a good candidate for a 6 cyl swap. You may need to find a way to get the emergency brake working though.

What ever tranny you wil be using you will have to mate with that driveshaft.(e.g.) 318ti tranny will require 318ti Drive shaft, m3 zf tranny will require M3 driveshaft.
good luck. keep us updated. by the way how much did you happen to pick the rear end for?
