Im just trying to research the actual chassis dynamics between the 2 generations..
Im not sure what a gutted 92 weighs, but the 46 can get down to 2300ish which would be very fast with 600-700 hp.

You'll be able to get an E46 chassis much lighter then an E92. I'd vote getting a non-M E46 for your goals. You'll be able to get it lighter much easier, you can find a cheap but good condition non-M E46 for cheap and you won't feel bad if you need to hack up the car to make your swap fit well.
