OBDI to OBDII?
 
okay, i have a 95 ti. so that means OBDI
now im wanting to swap a m3 engine into my TI. If i were to get a OBDII engine can i convert it to OBDI? or am i going to be limited down only OBDI motors only?

Basically if you were in the US your choices would be OBDII upgrade or finding a 1995 M3 with OBD1... Not an easy search.

Smog laws would be the common driver...

hrmm looks like ill either have to import an engine
or possibly look at the 325/328 motors

It's quite simple...you can get a S52/M52 and convert back to OBDI or buy an S50/M50 and retain OBDI. If you search for awhile, you should be able to find a good condition S50.

Go check out the web page of the shop I work at. The OBD1 and 2 motors are exactly the same metal wise, just calling on different sensors and different plumbing.

Its everything you need.

There are other conversion parts as well. We do a whole lot of E30 conversion stuff so this is cake compared.
