Currently have a 08 BMW 320i e92 auto, needs a new motor and have found a n52b30 for a similar price of the n46. Comes with the motor, auto transmission and DME's. Should be a very simple straight swap, n46 and box out, n52 and box back in? I'm Just not sure on driveshaft and differential of the 320i will bolt up to the 330i trans? Obviously I would originally just sell the car and buy a higher spec model but considering the n46 is busted and I can get the n52, trans and DME's for a similar price, I'm rather interested!

Thanks guys, will take your advise and replace the whole system, after all it is a project car ?

That what I first thought but it doesn't look like it, there's a rather large gap between + the hole is on the top. Could it just be wear?

So my 328i e36 has been sitting around for a couple of months, I went to start it yesterday, let it run for about 10 mins then all of a sudden, there was a massive bang and steam pouring from the gaps around the bonnet! Pulled up the bonnet and the top radiator hose has a massive hole in and coolant gone everywhere!!! Before I replace the pipe, I obviously need to find out the root cause. Any ideas? Has never overheated or anything since ownership btw.

Hi, I'm looking for factory suspension for an e90 /e92 non m3 suspension to buy or borrow if in the South Island. If not will need to be shipped to Timaru Thanks

Have a set of BC gold coilovers for a e92 3 series (non m3), about 8 months old, Looking to swap for standard suspension from another e92 coupe in Wellington plus cash my way. Currently on my car so once agreed I will pull them out in exchange. Must be in Wellington. Any questions PM me

Some idiot has smashed my front windscreen so just looking at options/ prices, Anyone in Wellington have a front windscreen for a e36 coupe? Also waiting to hear back from smith and smith, can't wait to see the prices Thanks

Hi all, Just purchased an m50 manifold to go onto my e36 328i, quick question, Before I go through with the swap, I was just looking for a part number and the only one I can find is near the throttle body (1 720 615 2.0). Would there be another one that I'm just not seeing? I've googled and googled but can't find what its from!! Anyone know if its from a 325i e36 or anything else? The part number is not recognised on realoem.com

Bump, anyone have one laying around?

Anyone have an m50 Intake manifold from an e36 325i? Will be doing the m50 manifold swap so must be from a 325i. Pm me

Anyone have a good condition automatic transmission from an e34 540i? In Wellington so would need to be shipped. Thanks

Would he be able to get hold of one?

So I have a 94 540i v8 auto with the dreaded trans program, After a good look yesterday I believe the gearbox to be stuffed as there is a not very nice clunk when I put in reverse Just looking at transmissions and found an e39 5 speed auto, will that fit an e34? If not, what models can I get one from or is it cheaper or easier for a rebuild? Does it have to be from a v8? I've been searching heaps but can't really find what I'm looking for.

Hi, unfortunately I don't have any other wheels to put on it so will come on these, To be honest I'm not really sure what its worth but looking for around the $1500?
