How hard would it be to.........

[MonsterZ4]

...........fit the required running gear components from a ///MZ4 into a normal 3.0Si Sport so that it could run on genuine M3 alloys?
I really love the look of the original E46 M3 alloys in the 19" variety, and think they would look the business on my PY Z4 Coupe.
I know most people will say that the ///M versions are loosing so much money now that it would be easier to upgrade to an ///M, but i was just wondering what would need to be done. That would be assuming i could find all the parts from a breakers yard where they have a recently smashed donor car.

Would it be best done using parts from a M Coupe, or would parts from an E46 M Coupe work just as well?

Has it been done already????

Regards

It has been done I am sure, replacing the diff from an E46 M3 etc, but I would just trade the car and buy a ///M, has to be cheaper and easier, plus the benefit of that engine :evil:

Absolutely. Not to mention the engine in the 3.0Si is much lighter, then you put the heavier rear end, spring, etc and you've thrown the weight balance off.
