Displacement for the M42B18 was 1.8 L (1796 cc). E30 318iS and early E36 318iS/318ti (prior to 1992) models were fitted with versions producing 101 kW (136 hp) and 172 N·m (127 ft·lbf), later, change in the overhead cam design helped to achieve 106 kW (140 hp) and 175 N·m (129 ft·lbf) coping with the increased weight of the E36 models. The engine uses Bosch M1.7 fuel injection.
Thats what wikipedia says, so basically my engine has little bit more power, but my car weighs more?
ah well, makes sense. So does anyone else on the boards have an e36, or am i going to stick out like a sore thumb in picture threads?
You know when you watch a little league game, and there's always like, one absolutely gigantic kid ...that will be you.kidding!
you seem a little confused, but welcome.
no problems really, though there is a sound when the car starts that i dont think it should make, i'll record it on my phone (this things damn useful!) within the next few days.
