Not another E30 M52 swap

mmmmmmmmmmmhmmm

I don't think I've seen that fresh air pump swapped over before.

I'm assuming this was for cali emissions?

Yes. I've done the same swap, in the same spot too. Mine's not BAR'd yet though.


Congrats on getting the car running!

Do you have anymore pictures of the swap? I'd like to see more details.

RE: running losses valve, if you can find a fuel rail from an M50 or early e39 M52 with an integrated FPR, it will run without flashing the running losses crap, but it'll throw a DTC and probably a CEL. So if you think that's easier for now than mounting it somewhere, go for it.

That's ridiculous. I could understand if it was in pieces and just sitting there, but as an ongoing project??? So if someone has work done on their house and it takes a year, and in the meantime the property is a wreck, how is that different? Or if someone just neglects to care for their property? ughhh... people

early E39 528i rail is a really nice option as northern said. That'll keep the fuel lines nice and tidy behind the manifold, and integrate the FPR.

Regarding suspension, I'd give GC a call and discuss your intentions/needs and see what they come up with. They can easily spec a kit for you to suite what you want out of it

Whoa, so that report says that if you wait 10 days and don't do anything about it, they can take it and never give it back to you? That's totally fucked, I hate neighbors. Seriously, how is it effecting your life seeing a car in a driveway so much that you complain to the cops?

I guess the neighbor believes that my car reduces the value of their home
like what mjweimer said...

Years ago a realtor selling the house across the street turned in my old 2002 as a nuisance vehicle. The actual homeowners did not care about the car because it looked OK and I kept a cover on it when it was not being wrenched on....some people....

What booster set-up you running? I am just buttoning up my M52 rebuild and hope to get the M20 out in the next month so I can clean and prep for install.

It's a 944 booster. The shaft on the booster needs to be retreaded and cut to length.

I'd be on that appeal asap.

I would also probably shit in my neighbor's mailbox, and buy a few actual POS "inoperative" and "dismantled" cars to leave around my yard for them to enjoy.

Unfortunately, I don't know which neighbor filed the complaint. I only have assumptions as to who did it. I could shit in all my neighbors mailboxes, but that would end badly. lol

Also, you could just not run that running losses valve/FPR. Just run an early E39 528i rail, or an M50 rail for the integrated FPR and disable/have the DTC disabled when you flash the ecu (unless shadow codes that don't throw a CEL are still a problem for BAR?)

I'll look into this in the future. For now, I really just want to get the "nuisance" running.
