I have a 318is so it has a 318 gearbox with 3.91 lsd. I would like to go drifting, would a 325is box be better. Where in east london area or essex would be best to contact to do the work and also offer some advice?

Point about using the 318i/318iS 'box is that the mounting angle is the same as the M50/52 engine.
M20 sits at a different angle,so will give you problems with gearshift linkage and filling the 'box to the correct level with oil.
