Question;
Would this car ( 86 535i 5 speed) be a donor for swap into a Bavaria?

It will fit. What is the goal? If your goal is a better engine you aren’t really gaining anything over a 3.0. You do get electronic fuel injection.
The ‘86 535i has a a G260 transmission. You don’t see a lot of folks sticking G260’s into coupes. Other than the speedo issue I can’t think of any reason why they would be a problem. Moving to an e28 rear subframe opens you up to a world of readily available LSD’s however.
OK....
The car I have is a Bavaria.
Had a guy contact me about selling this car to me. I can get the whole wreck. I thought that some 535i had a 265 in them. But understand.
It also is to have a 3.23 lsd in the car presently.
This is all for only a consideration as my drive train currently is in good condition.
Thanks
