I have a 4 door 1986 bmw 325e and I have just come across a an imported 1985 bmw 325i, I want to put the engine and the transmission in my 4 door and maybe put the automatic transmission and eta engine in the imported shellHelp!! How long %26amp; how much would it cost to change an automatic bmw 325e to manual 325i, what does it involve?I used to own a 528e with the eta engine plus 4sp auto. I have also owned two 318i's.
The switch would involve engine, trans, radiator, engine computer, and fuel pump. I think the driveline and guibo can be reused, but if I were you, i'd buy a new guibo from Turner Motorsports or something.
The other iffy is the differential. Will you want to bogg down that poor 2.5 engine with a 2.93 ratio differential? So you will want to swap the diffs.
Geez, that's a tall order. I haven't even begun to talk about switching the pedals and instrument gauge cluster.Help!! How long %26amp; how much would it cost to change an automatic bmw 325e to manual 325i, what does it involve?Pointless project, too much work. Engine and tranny swap will take a day or two but interior, wiring and the linkage swaps will kill you.
