What Fits? '83 320is to '72 tii


Greggotii

Recommended Posts

I'm dragging an '83 320is home this weekend for my '72 tii.  It has a salvage title, and a bad motor, but good transmission.  It has the Recaros and the five speed. 

 

What else can be retrofitted?  The LSD? The rear brakes? Anything else?

Yes on the LSD and rear brakes. Plus:

Radiator

Starter (for a spare)

Alternator

Front hubs (to sell)

Sport steering wheel

Sun visors and clips

Seat belts (I think)

  • Inside rear view mirror--it's wider than the 02's and won't interfere with the 02's sun visors.  
  • the hood and trunk emblems if they're the original raised metal ones
  • pushbutton switches can be used to replace the dummy switch on your console to operate driving/fog lights, etc
  • windshield wiper relay--it is a 7 terminal relay and can be used to add an intermittent speed to your 72 or later 2002.  If you decide to do that, I have how-to instructions for the project.

My 74 tii has the following parts from a E21 S car

-Recarro seats

-Sport steering wheel

-5 speed

-LSD

The S car 13x6 BBS/Mahle wheels have an ET18 offset that look good on a 2002. Problem is, offset isn't the greatest and finding decent 13" tires these days is very difficult.

Hi Mike,

 

I have a 1974 2002tii and I am looking to upgrade to intermittent wipers.  I have found the 7 terminal relay on Ebay.  Do I need to find a wiper stalk from a '75 or '76 (unobtainium, it seems) or will one from a 320 work?  If so, do you know the part number?  Could you email me the how-to instructions for the conversion?  Thanks in advance!

You need a wiper stalk that has the intermittent position.  It will be off, intermittent, slow, fast.  Member shermanmartinez probably has one you could purchase.

If you are swapping in the LSD use the rear axles from the 320is. They are a tad longer and will help compensate a little for the narrower LSD case. Keep one 320 CV joint for the inside to connect to the diff and swap in the 02 CV joint for the outer axle. 

Loose: Not tightly bound. Subject to motion.

1975 Malaga. It is rusty but runs. Just like me.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
