Searching for a set of 88-89 635csi E24 down pipes and catalytic coverter if possible. Even if you have just a set of downpipes minus the cat I will take them. PM me if you can help me out. Thank you.

WTB 88-89 (B35) E24 Down Pipes and Cat
Re: WTB 88-89 (B35) E24 Down Pipes and Cat
Are E34 B35 downpipes the same by chance? If so, I have some of those.
Re: WTB 88-89 (B35) E24 Down Pipes and Cat
Unfortunately, they are not, I found out. I have a set of those as well, and they DO NOT fit. I have been told the E24 B35 downpipes have a different shape and are narrower, allowing them to fit in the E28 engine compartment. From what i understand, the B35 only came in 88-89 model years.Jargo wrote:Are E34 B35 downpipes the same by chance? If so, I have some of those.

88 is narrower, 89 is the same diameter and Share the same manifold as the e34/e32 you must have the b34 manifolds and is the reason why they don't fit

Re: WTB 88-89 (B35) E24 Down Pipes and Cat
You are incorrect. The 88 & 89 e24 front section uses B35 manifolds and fits the E28 chassis.e38740imd wrote:88 is narrower, 89 is the same diameter and Share the same manifold as the e34/e32 you must have the b34 manifolds and is the reason why they don't fit

The e24 only got the the b35 in 89. What e24 got the b35 in 88?Kyle in NO wrote:You are incorrect.

Re: WTB 88-89 (B35) E24 Down Pipes and Cat
Again, you are incorrect. I've owned both, and know what I am talking about. All 88 and 89 year model e24s have B35 power. The 88 year model US 535i/is retained B34 power as they were all leftover 1987 models.
