Guest Andrew Report post Posted March 6, 2004 For those who want proof - thats mtech2 on a prefacelift - a lot of work though and he knows what he's doing. Its a 325e I believe - although I doubt that is what it is remaining. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hizza bizza Report post Posted March 6, 2004 Its a 325e I believe - although I doubt that is what it is remaining. whats the difference between a 325e and a 325i? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted March 6, 2004 um looking at the mod list on his site think the only mtech 2 stuff is the rear spoiler..everything else is from e36 or whatnot....the front valance is a stock one.....looks good with the spoiler.....the 325e is the 'eta' model....greek for economical....basically a 2.7 engine that doesnt rev very high (120-140 HP, around 180 ft lbs of torque) slower than a 325 i (169hp, 167 ft lbs torque) and more torquey....we dont get much in nz..but they extremely common in the states and canada Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hizza bizza Report post Posted March 6, 2004 sweet gus, seeing you answered that so well, what dose the "i" stand for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted March 6, 2004 injected...hmmm....maybe the 'e' is carburetted....nice Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hizza bizza Report post Posted March 6, 2004 yeah I was always under the influence, uh I mean impression that it stood for injected, but wouldn't injection be as economical if not more so than carbs? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted March 6, 2004 The 'e' is injected too. My car has a hybrid 325e/325i engine. (I didn't do it, a previous owner did), with a 325i transmission, intake and exhaust. It means about the same BHP as a 325i (in its current config) but a fair bit more torque. I plan on changing the camshaft, which will increase the BHP a fair bit (or so I am told). At the moment my BHP peaks at 4,800 rpms even though it is more than happy to rev to the limit of 6,400. I will probably have to change the chip as well. The torque in mine is 243nm and is pretty flat from 1950rpm's right through to 4,800rpm's. It means I can basically pull away from a standstill quite happily in 3rd gear.
