If its an E46 engine it will be twin vanos = useless to an E30

Twin VANOS

would you mind explaining why the twin vanos is no good...

E46 is the 3 series model that followed the E36, its not a type of engine.
There is nothing wrong with twin vanos, just that its not worth the effort required to get it working in an E30

Most important part is the wheel speed sensors and AFAIK E30 sensors are not compatible
