Well I dont really want to get stuck into donar cars and breaking, the lad that owns the workshop has let us use a bif of space but dont want to take advantage of him either, fair play to him for letting us store it,Quote:

Ok, running gear and everything about 500 to go everything and the same again labour I'd imagine. I'd do it for less but I'm in Donegal.

TBH, get a full donor car if you're going from 4 pot to 6 pot. Just done it in my friend car few weeks ago (from 02 318ci to 00 323ci) and now I'm replacing the running gear in my own 03 318ci.
If you not familiar with cables you'll need some help. It's not simple p&p, unless you want it to do some cowboy job with two separate keys (one for the locks and one for the ignition).
I don't know why people in here are avoiding 2.2 (m54b22) and early double vanos 2.5 (m52tub25). With few simple mods those engines will have more torque and power than 325 or 328.
just get 323 or 325 engine ,ews key and ring your 318 box can work fine as said we can fit in perfect car very easily pm for price if interested
edit what is the car i assumed it was e36 till i relooked and seen 318ci so i assume its e46 a little bit harder
