Autocraft BMW Specialists = World of E30 M3 S54's **aka Heaven**

[MrFukengruven]

Just a heads up to all you guys about a great shop in Uniondale, NY. Autocraft BMW Specialists has done many S54-swaps in E30 M3's and is definitely a shop I recommend if you are planning to go that route in any E30. I met them at SIGFest a few weeks ago in NJ and they were very cool guys. AJ and Shaun know their stuff and they have honestly the best E30 M3 I have ever seen aside from a retired ex-DTM M3. The fit and finish was... Perfect.

Damn I want an E30 M3 now :( I think they won the SIG Meister's Choice award, which is a great accomplishment as there were definitely some other serious E30 M3's with monster motors in them. Their car was not overdone. Just right in every single way.

Here are some of the photos of their car at the show (I'm dumb and forgot my SD cards for my camera

Here is the rest of the photos of their red E30 M3 S54:

Reeeeaally desiring that interior. It pains me.

They need to trim that bumper gasket though, odd to miss that.

Very clean. All e30 m3s deserve that love

I wish I saw more of them :( ever since I saw this car in person, it was like it was unreal. And yea I just noticed that too about the gasket (must have been occupied looking at the other parts of the car ha).

They said this car actually gets driven a lot which is a nice thing to hear as most car are "garage queens" :) I think if I had the car, it'd be difficult to keep it in pristine shape where I live though.

This past weekend, I met up with these guys again at an S14.net meet in Westchester, and was able to really get a close up look at their red M3 :eyebrows HOLY MOLY!!!













The OEM+ route seems to have worked quite well!



I can't stop talking about this thing. The sound it makes is UNREAL! :thumbsup:

[mulletman]

Wow. That is brilliant, and makes me want to do an S54 swap.

Took a lot of compliments for you to say a few words AJ! Nice work. You are the man.

[nando]

[mutty]

If I remember correctly E46 M3.

[Bimmerguy91]

DEAR GOD! So nice. Everytime I see a S54 e30 it makes me want to rip my Z4MC apart

thanks man i like to let my work do all the talking,yes the coolant bottle is original e46 m3, if ?'s r asked i'll answer them, other than that i just want people to enjoy the car get n share ideas, my motivation did come from forums like this

[nando]

yeah, plus it's not like you'll be doing an S54 swap in a car 3,000+ miles away. :p

The E30 coolant tank is what I'd planned on, but I'm betting the E46 M3 tank is actually cheaper. :|

get your car on a transporter lol, i tried to use as much original e46m parts as possible, parts r newer n easier to get at your local dealer/parts supplier, all hoses r original e46m un-cut
