    Anyone with a m5x or s5x swap in Portland, Or area?

    i got a 92 318ic as a project, and i bought a 98 328is parts car, it was rolled over but engine, tranny, and interior looks good. so i will be doing a m52b28 swap over the summer and would appreciate if anyone could help me out with info, pics, or in person. i got the general idea on doing the swap and whats needed.
    thanks

    Sounds like a good little project. There are several of us in pdx that have done and or have swaps still. You came to the right place. Best thing to do is either search specifics and post pics in project thread with questions, or start offering up beers. :) I jest, unless you offer me one, lol. Lots of help in the area is available.

        I have no experience on this swap but I'd like to learn. I'd be interested in stopping by a few times

          Going to be starting another one in about a month if you want to drop in.

              Check out the PNW subforum for gatherings. We met for indoor carting a couple of weeks ago.

                  Also, I recommend going OBD1 unless you have a really good idea what you're doing...
