How much for unwelded parts? I can weld...

How much for unwelded parts? I can weld...

Sorry, our parts are welded in fixtures we custom made to insure that our swap parts will fit other E30's. If you are a handy DIY-guy, our CD has all of the info needed to do the swap on your own, without our swap parts.

You will still need to have a '04 or newer GTO oil pan modified (we used an outside shop for this), and have the driveshaft modified. That would leave you to complete the assembly and wiring of your car, and having the exhaust system made. Our CD has complete, step-by-step instructions, photos, suppliers, etc. for these items. The CD has all of the information necessary for all other aspects of the swap, including wiring, fuel system, intake duct, A/C hoses, power steering hoses, etc.

anyone know if this brake booster linkage would make an s52/s50b32 swap easier?

[Gnarles]

a hydro boost setup is much more complex than just replacing the stock e30 booster with a smaller diameter one.

Not ours. It is bolt-in, and you just need to make-up hoses, which are not hard or expensive to do. We show you how in the CD.

If I didn't wreck my e30 a couple weeks ago, I'd be buying this kit. :(

Bump for you, though.

[GotCone?]

Awesome that you are producing these... Thinking hard about getting on the list to help move our build along faster.

[garretvs]

No waiting, we have parts for the kit on hand. Just take a couple days to weld-up and assemble.

Let me know if you ever make a Rabbit LS1 kit.

I am curious if you run a complete separate fuse panel or integrate the gm harness to the bmw panel? I got a ls1 on the stand and will be collecting swap parts soon as I get moved in to the new house.

[garretvs]

There is some integration of the GM engine harness to the rest of the car, if you want the guages, OBD2, alternator, etc to work. On our 86 E30, (5) wires go thru BMW connector C101. The tach signal and main power relay control wire go thru BMW C104. There are a few wires from GM connectors C220 and C230 that need to be patched in.

We used a small power & fuse block for switched and ignition power for the GM PCM. We also used a 3-relay set-up for the fans. See the "stand alone fuse & relay module" here:

Our CD covers the wiring in great detail, if you're interested.

I will be purchasing your cd. Thanks for the info.

I will have a build page shortly. I will be doing some different things one of them is using a r154 trans since the t56's seem to be more than i would like to spend a simple adapter from novak-adapt.com make this possible. I already have the trans and driveshaft so this saves me time and money.

Out of curiousity does the linkage in your kit include the extension modification you made to your original design to prevent tire drag? Thanks

Huh? Tire drag? Please explain.
