    $600... wow, if it's not an overheated motor that's a good deal even without the transmission!

    Plenty of M54's were overheated because their related cooling systems (radiator, expansion tanks) in the chassis sucked. Beware!

      Wouldn't you have to get the stock M54 ECU reprogrammed just like the S54 ECU to disable things like DSC and CAN-bus besides just dealing with EWS before using it in a E30?
      Plug and Play Wiring Harness Adapters for S54, S50, M54 and more.

          Well now this has me concerned about being able to use the stock engine controller from the M54 if the EWS and other unused features can't be removed by a reflash from an established tuner.

                So who can delete ews on ms43? Euro II reflash will take care of the emission tid bits.

                I was up above it, Now I'm down in it ~ Entropy - A Build thread.

                    I can delete EWS 3.3 and other components that are not needed for swap. And M54 will work fine in your E30

                          You will need all the EWS stuff.

                            I second that. Preferably a MS45.1 if you plan to run ZHP cams.
