what radiator do i need and cluth fan???

[Good & Tight]

No clutch fan will fit, you will need an electric fan in front with an E28 radiator.

[ky325es]

pulling the m20 this weekend hopefully have the m30 in the bay and running in couple weeks

[ky325es]

finally took out the m20 engine got few rust spots in the firewall before i go anything else but i think i will try to make my own mounts
if it dont work out then i will get some from good &tight

waiting on my m30 writeup

[rav320uk]

i was going to use the z3 shifter
i need to get a e32 5spd transmission tho

no i have to order those in the next couple weeks
if i could use the e30 bracket i will keep it
do i use the e30 ignition coil or e32
and as drive shaft could i use the e30 or do i have to get a custom one made couldnt i use the e30vert halft and some other half?

You can use the stock E30 propshaft, all you have to do is change the large rubber guibo on the E32 manual box for the 325i one, then it will bolt up with no problem.
Also over here in the UK, some use the standsr M20rad too with eleccy fan set up.
