OBD II in e30 possible?

[kevmo707]

I was wondering if you can run OBD II (S52) in an E30? I know you can swap an S52 to OBD I and it works, but im wondering if you can run the OBD II. I would want to for a couple of reasons. First, keep cost down of having to swap to OBD I. Second, S52's are way easier to find. Lastly, I like the low rpm torque curve of the stock S52.

Any input would be helpful thanks,

Kevin

it is safe to say that obd1 is more straight forward, right?

No.

you have a shit ton of homework to do. obd1 wiring is less complex, but there are a lot of little things that need to be changed which add up quickly. obd2 is not documented as much, and requires some form of EWS delete or integration

I live in RP and could help you, however I would only be a helping hand. I don't know much about motor swaps, which is why I'd help out.

Do I know you? Kev Mo sounds familiar. 'names Pierre
