My e30 318is s52 swap thread

[Mr.SWISS]

the coding plug is behind the light bar...or whatever its called.

you need to take off the cover on the FRONT of the cluster :)

You sure?

On my 325i (89) it was in the front on the bottom right hand corner.

santa came again, the fucken asshole didnt get the car started though he he..ya so i dunno what the stock exhaust end conectors look like, but this fucken thing is not a direct fit to the cat back end.one end has a flange....but not the other one, its just straight.i looked back on there site and it is designed like that, i dont get it, but no big deal, its anoying to me right now that i cant provide a sound clip to this thread!!back to work...
P.S. worst paint job ive ever seen in my life, since when can WOPS not paint?? i no its under the car but seriously...i didnt get this from the speed corner store shop!!

Back to the tack comment you made before. I have been doing some research and apparently you need to hook pin 20 on the e36 side to pin 9 on the e30 side. This is only on the 91 318is cars. I will be trying this out when I get back to my car this weekend. I hope you find out what the problem is with the intake.

[windsor318is]

waaaaaaaay more, and minus the power

[e30s52]

i know. but you can swap the throttle bodies or is thier more to it then that?

[BigD]

why not put the obd2 manifold on?

Because it's not a direct swap.

[e30s52]

[windsor318is]

well, well see soon what the issue is, im not buying a manifold till its cracked for sure, i really hope its cracked though, thats an easy enough fix!!

Yes, the bentley is wrong. I didn't measure, I went and looked and it's clearly stamped 3.5 bar.

[static]

All e36s (that I know of) use 3.5 bar base fuel pressure. (That's 51 psi if you're not into the whole SI thing)

so then the Bentley is wrong? did you personally measure the pressure in obd1 rail?

EDIT: and realoem says they are both 3.5bar, one of them is lying
