CMart Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 I should really pay someone to get mine running. This is badass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_08 Posted July 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 It's not hard at all...if you need help, I'll be glad to. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMart Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Time is my bottleneck right now. My car is plumbing and wiring away from running. It would be fun to get some people together - grill out drink beers and get it running though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_08 Posted July 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Hell Yeah! I've still got my wiring diagrams that I made and also I made my own fuse block with relays...wiring is simple as depicting unneeded shit from PCM and stripping it. Then re wrap the whole harness with braided loom. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't be harder than the M62 swap, that was a wiring nightmare because of the lack of info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_08 Posted August 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 I've got maybe 3" clearance right under the collectors. Only thing left is coolant hoses which should be here tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Loving the updates! I really just need a 3 inch piece fabricated to go underneath the rear subframe, a few exhaust hangers, and to recirculate my wastegate. The exhaust is on the car and functioning / drivable right now, just not complete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaiserRolls Posted August 4, 2016 Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 I like threads that have mass updates like this. Basically one page and the cars done Looks good. If you're ever in Eau Claire with this I would enjoy a ride. It might make me rethink the current s50 in my car lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_08 Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Yeah appreciate the positive feedback. Honestly I have to say after messing around with e30s for the past 12 years im tired of long drawn out build threads and all that BS. Everyone just likes pictures and uses them to maybe get ideas for their own build. I have to say this swap is just badass. The whole damn car just shakes side to side while idling.

Nick_08 Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 very impressive. seems to have come together very quickly. It appears that way but I have had the car on jack stands for a year. The motor has been on a stand for 8 months. I have spent hours and hours researching. I wanted to save up to buy everything at once and get the swap done in a short period of time. But hey thanks much it's pleasing to turn the key and have the engine fire on the first try.
