e30pete325 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2013 OK, I have an 86 325i auto and an 1990 325i manual and I'm going to use the 90 325 as my donar car as it is in worst condition cosmetically compared to my 86 ... So question is when I swap my 86 from auto to manual should I use the loom from the 1990 325 and does anyone know if it would be ok or even a good idea to use the ECU aswell ...??
