The standard 325 one uses a remote header tank doesn't it?

E30 318iS uses the same radiator as an E36 325, so go for that one, including mounting hardware.

Sorry mis understood your first post, thought you ment that you didn't want a tank on the side of your radiator.
Yes a M42 one will do the job.
