New spanish member! 323Ti cali roof!

[323ticali]

Good afternoon colleagues!

I´m a owner of a rare 323Ti with california roof in Barcelona (Spain) sinde 3 months ago. The car needs some money to repare some details like the cali roof which doesn´t close 100%, so I would need the california roof maintenance files due to disassembly and repair it.
On the other hand, I want to repaint it and upholster all interior with M3 E36 front seats included. My Compact project is very ambitius due to I want to install an S54 engine and get a 332Ti, firstly I will invest the money in the interior and exterior aesthetic details, then we will invest in performance, I will inform you about the news.
Please, If anyone can send me the california roof assembly and disassembly files to my personal email reyes@sutein.com I will be very greatful, thank you very much and nice to meet you!

Welcome. I don't know anything about the California roof (hell, I never even saw one in person - they weren't too popular around here due to the snow), but here are some part diagrams. It's for the 2000 model, I don't know what year you are.

The service files are here somewhere.

I saved them and should be able to find then to send.

BTW Panjo this morning had an S54 complete for $3800US on Bimmer forums.

I don't know if that is a good price or not but i don't see them much.

The files just took a little searching:

Those were broken links.

Actually, look like they are now here:

I recently saw an S54 in an E30 at Eurofest San Diego and what a sweet looking installation.

Selling my Beemer (Maybe). Moving to Florida in December and thinking about selling my toy. Too many upgrades to mention. The only thing TI it the body and interior. Still need to replace the stock M3 rear (3.23). I have a 3.73 (in my garage) rear I want to install. I also have brand new BC coilovers in the box collecting dust till I decide to take the time. Text or call with any questions. Taking a bit of a bath with this price but I'm OK with it. Has the M3 6 speed transmission with a short shift.
