Hey Yall,
Im fixing to get wrist deep in an S52 swap. Iv got the full arsenal of r3v, e30wiki, zone, and forum info i need including Mr. Bentlys instruction. However reading and doing are two completely different things. So im starting this thread for the practical dumba$$ questions i know ill have to ask and I trust the members here to give me a semi constructive answer.
So far this is what i have:
- 89 325i coupe (manual) parts car (ETA till it meets crusher 7 days and counting)
- 91 325i coupe (auto) main car
- 99 m3 sedan parts car (non wrecked just a steal on Clist)
Im keeping records of costs, and any additional income generated by selling off excess parts i dont need from either car. So far iv invested all of 1800 for all three cars, and 200 for refresh parts (oil, WP, plugs etc.)
However ill leave all that shenanigans for the actual build thread.
For now the first dumb question i have is:
Since im located in TX i want my AC lol. So should i keep all my e30 ac components or should i just retrofit the e36 items. Iv got time to prepare everything so i figured id try to head off the problems i know ill run into.
Anyway thanks in advance guys n gals!
