Are we talking the 6 pot M3 engines here?

If so: the 5 speed from the M3 Evo E36 will fit, as will the 5 speed from the 328i sport, the 3.0litre M3 and the Mroadster/Coupé's.

As for the 2.5 gearbox, it's definately different but I can't tell you if it'll fit.. Someone will be able to though dude. Hope this helps some.
