    power steering fixed...... mostly.
    e36 rack.
    abs working properly.

    took it to gingerman this week. had a blast. finally got a feeling for the car. now i just need to fix the loose nut behind the steering wheel! track was very green......but that can be fun too. my buddy (in the black e30) laid rubber throughout the day. especially turn 3. put a grin on my face everytime!

    Jason what did you use for exhaust...I'm seeing a mid muffler and rear but curious as to make of both and pipe sizing throughout.

    That sound is amazing!

    dan, give me a call. I have a stock cooler with the e30m3 hard lines. an-10 fittings brazed onto the hard lines and an-10 line up to the filter housing. I just put on an aftermarket cooler.

    cheers, jason

    takes too much time. really dont spend that much time around here anymore.



    its not as easy as it looks. (see build thread.) but the results were very promising for a track car.





    On a side note, just got an updated tune that was more comprehensive with the vanos movement. Mucho good. anxiously awaiting for the next track day. cheers, jason
    Thanks.

    Someday... Someday I will get to do a ground up restoration on an m3 and do a motor transplant like this... Someday.;

    thanks for being on the lookout. my p.steering cooler is ghetto-tastic. its a 5' 3/8" brake line bent into a loop mounted below the radiator. Just got a z3 rack installed, will try it again in a couple weeks.

    cheers, jason

    I'm curious, since you moved the motor back 4inches, stick for the tranny move back as well? I'm doing a similar swap and I like the move the motor back solution as well. Nicely done!

    a plug and play harness sounds very good. would make the wiring hassle a bit easier. what dme are you using?

    Looking good Jason! Scary to hear about the throttle issue though.. That was a code brown moment indeed. Are you on street tires in the vid?

    As for a solution for your PS problem, I'm sure Alex has mentioned his solution once or twice ;).

    Jason, you should change your sig picture. Highly deceiving. Great job on the swap btw. I plan on doing a s54 swap for the same person (s52/auto) if he finds a good enough deal. If not, his s52 auto + supercharger will be in order.

    Looks good Jason. I'm still on a lookout for a ps cooler for you. As soon as I find one, I'll grab it, and let you know.
    Finally got mine on the road, but just like yours there's few things I need to iron out.
