[drulle]

^^^ Yes, please...
I'm about to start my S52 OBDI swap into my current e30 M50NV.
Any additional info would help... thanks in advance

A few things to add.

Here is my DIY - 24V straight shifter swap - this is to make sure your shifter doesnt sit at an angle.

Here is my exhaustive list of steps for remove M20 and isntalling M50 - this includes part number, pricing, and explicit steps, as well as several notes that no one really ever mentions.

I have a dilemma , and I think it would pertain to this section but My zf that came with my s50 is fitting correctly with the my e30 325e transmission mount :( do I need a custom mount? I hear that the later zfs are fine with it it I hear nothing of earlier zfs

Hey dave, if you're doing an OBD1 conversion, do you require an OBD1 MAF at all? or can you run the obd2 one?

Will need OBDI MAF.

Funny how you give a seemingly objective comparison of OBD1 conversion vs OBD2 for the swaps here, and now you're so anti-OBD1 that you even put it in your sig!
