    E36 to E30: What can be swapped??

    E36 to E30: What can be Swapped??

    What all can be swapped from the E36 to the E30 (and I don't mean ugly weird things like the dash;)) What I currently know of is:

    • Window switches
    • Steering rack
    • Engine

    Thanks for the help :D

    Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

      You could be more helpful. I've been searching like mad and I'm about to drive out to the guys house who's parting his E36. Do you have an INFO! maybe a link. I figured this has been asked numerous times but I don't see it?

        I know, I've just always wanted to use that.

        Lemme think, just off the top of my head.

        Engine, Tranny, 318ti rear trailing arms and such for 5 lug, steering rack, seats with modification, CD player, side skirts, wheels after 5 lug swap.

            the 17.5# M50 injectors and 21.5# S52 injectors work on our M20s

            Not sure what rate the S50 injectors are, but they should work as well.

                      Yeah,

                      Why do you know him? I just got back from his place. I purchased:

                      - Shift boot
                      - Window switches
                      - E-brake boot
                      - E-brake handle
                      - Cup holder center console section
                      - Gas cap

                      Everything will need some modification to fit for the most part, but the price was right. All I really wanted was switches but I managed to figure out some other items. The engine, tranny and tires are good.

                      Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

                          I'm not sure. I know he just spend around $4,000 or something to get the tranny all fixed up or something.
