2.8L M52 Swap - Complete engine and then what else?

My brand new Z4 2.5i rod would have to be bent? FML.

No, that's the shift lever. If you stick with the G260, you need to "twist" the selector rod (rod that connects the bottom of the shift lever to the selector coupler on the transmission) to account for the extra clock angle.

Motor is en route!

I am going OBD1 so it doesn't really matter. I will need a chip for the car though... you know since I gave you those tires and all kekeke


And you are 'red/away' on gtalk 25 hours a day.

Talk to me on google sometime. We can work something out.

You dont need any simulators or any of that garbage. That's for people who don't know how ECUs work.

^OBD-II can delete O2 sensors (popular to delete the two post cat sensors), air pump, etc.

You could basically just get the OBD-I manifold on and leave everything else OBD-II (then either a throttle adapter for the OBD-II or get an M50TB), then have it tuned.

[dinanm3atl]

Yah for how much?


*edit*

I am sure that is possible but that means more O2 sensors correct? Or run O2 sims which aren't exactly cheap. Air pumps and all that jazz.

[matt]

Why not leave it OBD2? The OBD2 shit is cheap compared to an OBD1 conversion.

I can delete EWS and tune it for you.

I don't know what trans. Isn't the only non plug and play about getrag 260 is needed a trans cross brace?

also the bent shifter linkage and selector rod.

That cost monies ;) And I do actually like to work on the cars sometimes.

i can atleast do your harness modification if you would like.

crank sensor
cam sensor
knock sensors
engine temp sensor
cluster sensor (drill and tap head/drillout TB coolant hose hole and re tap/rethread sensor)
maf from obd1 vanos motor.
obd1 O2 sensor
413 ecy
obd1 throttle body
obd1 vanos intake manifold
welded obd2 manifolds

what trans are you going with? i would suggest the zf for the plug and play factor.

[dinanm3atl]

or just have me and justin do the swap for you and you not have any worries about what to get.

Yep, therein lies the benefit of obd2 for power from tuning, more adjustment via data available.

[dinanm3atl]

single O2, all sensors wiring comes from OBDI

That is what I thought. Damn OBD2 has 4 of the stupid things.
