I guess it's that time for a 24v swap thread

There should be enough room for you to wiggle them out.

Meh take the wheel off. Gives you a good chance to clean behind it.

I need an impact gun. I'm going to try and get one this week off my buddy.

I picked a single mass flywheel and clutch disk up today. I just need a pressure plate and TOB.

In terms of shaving this, do I just take a 1/8th off like you do in the m42 swap?



Like there ^^?

[SamE30e]

Alright, I got around to ripping the harness apart, there are 3 wires that goto the DME. do I just cut em?

I also read you need to connect the brown/black coming from pin 23 on the DME to any red/white wire on the main relay. But it also mentioned a 413 ECU, which I don't have, I have a 403 as my engine is non vanos. I'm assuming this wire is possibly used for the neutral/park starting.



And whats this plug for?

Looks like the O2 to me. The other one might be the maf plug.

^^Yeah looks like it to me. I cut the wires from the trans to the DME. But I think there were only 2 wires and my harness was from a VANOS car.

Thats what it is.. Maf!! The 02 sensor is on the other side. I think i'm good in terms of wiring. I just need my parts to come then I can put the engine back together and drop it in.

[e30s52]

Yeah the maf plug is super long thats way you can tell what it is or you can peel the boot back and look at the color code on the wires and match it in the bently.

Well, I'm not making an adaptor, thats a waste of time, i'm going to cut the X20 connector off and splice the C101, it'll look cleaner and be easy.

It makes it a lot cleaner. What you could do is what Stuck did which I plan on doing. Buy new pins from the dealer and take the old ones out of the c101 connector. Cut the e36 harness, crimp/solder the pins to each wire and connect each wire accordingly to the c101 connector. I will be doing this when I get another wiring harness for a wire clean up.

thats a brilliant idea, what part do u ask the dealer for? any specific part number?

[SamE30e]

I could get the pin numbers from my buddy who works at the dealer. But you do need a special tool to properly remove the pins. I was going to do this, but it seems like a pain in the ass.

[Mohammed_A]

on second thought i think im just gonna cut the wires and re solder them on

When you take it off ditch the AC pully. You will need slightly shorter bolts when you put it back on.
