Both engines are from the same chassis, so the swap is literally bolt-in, no modifications required. Just start wrenching and use your head. (physically, if you like)
You will need the complete m20 drivetrain and cooling system
radiator, hoses, overflow tank, driveshaft, gearbox, diff (318i uses small case) and if you have the rear subframe from the 325, grab it as well for the rear discs.
Once installed you will have to make an adapter for the difference in injection wiring harness (assuming you are swapping in a late model m20b25). That diagram should be available inn the motorswap section of the site.. good luck.
