Good, that's one that shares many components with an E28, and is much more solid than the earlier ones. There were two years that were better, '88 and '89, but only the engines which had later fuel/ignition management systems.

There's a Sharkfest scheduled next month, you should consider going to it. Even if you can't bring your car, you'll learn alot about it. There's also the Big Coupe Group who have a lot of info.

Doing the manual tranny swap is moderately challenging, but many have done it. It's identical to doing the job on an E28.
The manual transmission swap into an automatic equipped car.
