Rear differential does not fit. Rear suspension does not fit. Rear uses the older trailing arm design of the E30.

http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=12912 or search for "The 318ti OBD-II engine swap manual" on this forum by Jim Leach. $70 and worth every penny.

You'll also need the shift linkage and throttle cable from the m3.
