Is my current 323is manual tranny going to mount up with an M3 engine? I looked on realoem.com and the two transmissions look totally different. A little concerned with the install. Let me know. Thanks.

Is your car an E36 or an E46, 99 was a split year wasn't it. If its an E36 the S52 will bolt up to the 323 getrag trans as long as you keep it NA it will hold up fine. Be sure to use E36 M3 clutch components though.
