    S14 swap in to 325is

    To start off, I know/ read that 24v swaps will be cheaper and can achieve more power with less money involved as well more reliability.

    I have a full part E30 M3 to my disposal, I was really looking for information on wiring, swap parts (mounts anything custom etc.) I have searched through google and various E30 sites. I just keep seeing the same thing about someone wanting to do the swap but not having the motor or anything and having to buy it all.

    Thanks

    is the m done then? i would say just rebuild the m3, but you sound as if it can't be done.

      if you have a full parts car this is a swap over of parts, nothing more. Nothing custom would be needed.

            The M's totaled, 100%.
            I never said it couldn't be done. I was just curious if anyone had done it or heard much about it being done.

            Swap everything over? Couldn't the same be said about a 24v. I was looking for a little more specifics. but thanks though.

                it's a straight swap, pull the engine/trans/driveshaft, rear diff, and install them into your non-M e30. Then swap radiator/cooling system into car, then hook up wiring and bam.

                  Yeah I mean everything is the same. This would be easyer then a 24v swap by along shot but then again 24v swaps arent hard ethier.
