Ok, I'll try to keep this simple. I have two cars -
1985 325 Euro, 5 speed 2 door
and
1991 325i USDM, Auto, 4 door
My question: What parts can I use from the 85 to convert the 91 to manual? Will the transmission work? Am I better off using the manual radiator (it's in better shape)? Are the driveshafts the same length, or is the 4 door's longer? I assumed with the longer car it would have to be, but I want to make sure. Will the ECU need to be swapped, or is it engine specific only?
Bottom line: What parts will I need to buy?
