Thanks guys, I did read though that a replacement of 'another' BMW is possible - the Millar kit looks very expensive....

1987 325i - Air Flow Meter mod.....

Hi,

I've read somewher that there is a mod to replace the aged butterfly air flow module on the early 325i lump with a later/better/more reliable AFM from a later BMW.

Does anybody do a 'kit' for this mod?

Is there anything else that needs changing?

Cheers,

Martin.

Side Skirts - what fits a Cab?

Hi,

I have a 87/D 325i cab and it has plain sills.

What side skirts will fit?

Looking for discreet 'SE' type - what are my options?
