hey guys wondering if its worth doing this change? my m50 1992 325i engine has done the head gasket sadly, but i was wondering if i replaced it with a 1994 325i vanos engine i might be able to get my hands on. what kind of work is needed to do this? mine is also manual do the engines mount the same on the box? ill also have to change the loom right?

ok then, if it needs a new cam belt what would it cost? and is this engine single cam or twin?

that will be a cam belt .

i have a nice 1.8l if he wants to put that in .

its a 1992 one

hey guys getting my mate some info on the 316i e36. Does it have the cam chain? and is it the same style as the M44 1.8l engine?

cheers

ill be fine about the pounding bit, im sure hes got other "girls" to give it to. im looking at offers above the $ 1,000 mark. cheers

how much? andy would pound you for a night..ill pay to see that

buy me!!!

sorry about the late reply. it has been to a dealer which they told me i had lots of errors. they said it needs to be reprogrammed. As for information I don’t know any tech information. It’s a non vanos New Zealand new E36 325i 1992 manual. Maybe someone can help me with the rest? What kind of interferences can happen? The engine has no head on it at the moment. So it cant drive any other way of checking it?

yeah ild love a link but dont have the money, and the bmw shop over charges. It just needs a reprogram

hey i have a 325i e36, the ECU needs to be reprogrammed due to something stuffing up who does this kind of work?

now on trade me http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=69453400

burb burb burb with a tang

would my head do for checking? if so ill be pulling it off soon

oops sorry mags are 5x120, off set 45p

sent you a email, thanks

Pics will get you more bites. If I hadn't seen the word dish I wouldn't even be writing this unless I'd seen a pic. PM'd you my email addy. If you don't know how topost pics up I'll do it for you and also email you back instructions for next time.

Hey selling my rims, these are really nice dish rims gun metal grey insides polished lip. The rims are two months old. The tires are a little older around 80% tread. Tires are 235/40/17 GT Radial Champiro. I also have the hub inserts to fit the Holden cars. Priced up at Mag and Turbo these cost around $2500. Looking at offers cheers. Send me a email address if pictures are needed.

Ok i have found them, so far a full head gasket kit $315. Or at repco $57 just for the head gasket. big difference in price what advantage does the kit have?

ok so where would be a good place to get it sent away to? or should i take it to a machining place and get them to do it? as fair as finding a head gasket, these arnt easy to find for some reason.

oh ok, what other kinds of engines can you get hold of? ive been told my ecu has some problems as well due to faulty coil packs. gosh things are so hard to do when your a uni student.

ok then ill get it tested, how good is that engine? how good are the pistons? you reckon thats a good option? because im really intrested in rebuilding the motor. where abouts are you? cheers

Alloy heads can be welded. Pull it apart and get a crack tests done

I can get a complete non-vanos M50b20 engine for about $500 [you could cannibalise it]

head gasket is gone havent pulled apart the motor so unsure if i have cracked it.

they said itl cost about 1900 for that engine which has done 145,000km. isnt it cheaper just to rebuild the engine i have?

Hey, so I have cracked the head gasket:S. what do I do? I have a 1992 325i E36 M50 manual bmw. Does anyone know of any good places to get cheap but good work done around Rotorua and Hamilton, car is in Rotorua but I live in Hamilton. I was thinking of just getting a new seal kit and machine the head. But then as it has done high kms should I do the piston rings and the whole engine? or should i just get hold of a replace ment engine say a newer model one?

cheers

The system is the same - the specific parts are not.
