COTW BMW Z3 2.2

It is been a while since I posted a car of the week. So without further ado, here it is.
I've recently been looking at the Z3. The same logic goes as for the E46, since they came with the. M54B22 engine. For those who don't remember what that means, it's an engine that has the same base as the M54B30, that being the 3L 200-odd horsepower engine that was used throughout the BMW lineup. So a swap of this in a Z3 should be more than feasible. Especially since it was actually mounted in the Z3 coupé at some point in time.
Then there is the problem of it being a 5 speed. Here we can pick a part from the Z4,which should actually fit. Some more investigation is necessary, but hey I already got the engine sorted out.
So there you have it. Rwd 2seater with north of 250hp. Should be fun :-)
