Hey guys have a 535i and just got hold of a nice 316 with a full kit for pennys :D..

So iv got the 2 donnor cars, all i need now is a m3 propshaft, engine mounts, gear linkage and a e28 radiator am i right? plz say if i need anything else lol..

Also i have a hks TO4E turbo with a 0.58 hotside sitting doing nothing, would this suit the 3.5 engine? also what else would i need to upgrade to make it work, thinking fuel pump and injectors.. will the ecu be ok?

For the 316i you will also need 325i suspension, brakes, front struts, subframes (im told), and a few small bits.

E28 rad, m3 prop, custom mounts, different servo, your almost there.

For 335 N/A engine use the 335 ECU, if your gonna turbo it you'll have to ditch the ECU!

would the 535 brakes and suspension not fit a 316?
