The only problems I had on my 89 325i that I bought new was a broken head bolt and fuel pump. The next year they beefed up the head bolts. Great car for going cross country in a hurry.
no news, but just in case you're a newbie...
I swapped my 91 318iS with anS50B30US, ZF S5D320Z, 2.93 LSD, Dinan Suspension, 11-inchVW front brakes, 15x7 (WOW!) wheels...in 1997. It has been my DD ever since, over 200,000 miles. Still my favorite, i.e. "if you could only have one car".
I also have S52 Z3 coupe and roadster, E36 325i, Toyota Mk1 MR2.
Next project is S52 into a 91 325iC.
Cheers.
