I personally would wait for an auto one or try and get a 325 diff which is a 3:15 ratio which would give better acceleration, but slower top speed..:hihi
I would try and find the correct 328i auto box and 328i gearbox ecu so then it will all match and bolt up together, may save a lot of hassle later on...:thumbsup

I don't know about boxes, but diffs are definitely inter-changeable. I've just replaced the OEM 2.93 one with a 3.15 on 323i. If it helps.
