As the title states, I was at my local junk yard the other day and came across a Black 1990 325i Convertible with what appears to be an S52 under the hood. The car had a short shifter, a Geartrag 260, eBay headers, and power steering delete. I pulled the drivetrain and plan to drop it into my E30 vert in the next few weeks. I would love to find out some history on the car if anyone has seen it. Here is some info on the car:
Vin: WBABB1315LEC03647
The partial vin on the head is: BSCD9322VEE(O?). Looks to be a 97 M3 sedan based on trying to decode the vin
The car appears to be a Midwest car based on the clean carfax.
Car was totaled after what looks like an encounter with a street light at a very high rate of speed.
I'd love to find a build thread or something to tell me if this is really is a true S52 engine.
Unfortunately the owner must have kept the ECU as it was not inside the car, and I was the first one to get to the car after it was set out for scavenging.
I have some pictures.
If anyone did the swap, they had to be on this forum sooner or later. Does anyone know anything about this car?
Thank you.
