1982 BMW 320is 325i-1 OWNER CAR FOR 35 YEARS. I bought this e21 320i from the original owner on the EXACT day he purchased it 35 years before. This started off as a completely stock HENNA RED 1982 320is. However, its M10 engine (original) was near-death�.And�.So began the project. Those of you who have modified cars will understand this: It�s been referred to as �project-creep� ie: �I�m just going to upgrade the exhaust.� Which then leads to, �Well I have to upgrade the intake� which then leads to �It really needs a new set of wheels�.� Etc, etc, etc�You ONLY say you are going to do one thing and before you know it, you are doing everything. That�s EXACTLY what happened when I purchased this car. Originally I thought to just rebuild the m10 engine�But�Wouldn�t it be really nice if it had a six cylinder like the European e21 323�s? However, I wasn�t going to go with that engine�.Soooo, I decided to do a six cylinder swap and found a 90k mile 1989 325i and out came the engine and in it went�no, of course it wasn�t that easy. Sourced the appropriate motor mounts so that the existing subframe could be utilized. Bosch 1.3 Motoronic (adaptable) management with a custom intake (MAF for the m20�name escapes me at this time, but I wasn�t going to do this swap and use an AFM). Battery was relocated to the trunk using a package designed for this e21 swap by TOP END (Digression: They do not exist anymore but back in the day they made all the good stuff for 2002�s & 320�s). The battery tray is smartly-integrated into the rear strut brace. Ditched the mechanical cooling fan assembly for a triple-core BEHR radiator with electric fan cooling. Custom dual exhaust with a BRAND NEW CARB-approved high-flow catalytic converter/brand new 3-wire Bosch 02 sensor. Over-the-counter BMW M Carbon Fiber exhaust tips bought (overpaid) from the dealership. Brand new clutch and shift bushings. AC BLOWS FREEZING COLD: Always a bunch of thumbs up.
