Nothing like watching a 10min montage on how to swap in the M54. And then getting to work on it myself, taking several months because every step is a setback of some description. I can just see it coming. Either that, or we slap it together fast but then it just breaks down and goes right back into sitting in pieces. We bought a rotten 330i for very cheap, an entire donor car for whatever we want to scavenge. Just gonna find a decent E36 sedan to drop the engine into. Gonna start by having it on all original systems and intake manifold and even the cat-header thing, probably. Since all of it is currently working perfectly on the donor car. Very nice torque for an E36, will probably send us shopping for more durable drivetrain parts once things start buckling :D
Good good im just doing same swap into my Drift project 318is auto... swap the engine with m52b28tu with modifications, coilovers, roil cage, brakes from e36 m3 lsd diff from m3 , camber etc.. winter project. All goods to you folks
quick tip from someone that did almost the same build (i used the stock 325i m50b25tu engine and put some m54b30 internals). Weld the diff, the e36 lsd from the m3 sucks and breaks a lot. Bought one, drove it for a month and the clutches just got destroyed. If you are going to drift, get some e46 control arms for extra angle. Good luck with your project!
Dude, I'm doing exactly the same project, but got me wondering... how many BMWs do you have around???? X4, E46 in grey and black... I envy your garage.
lovin the project...cant wait for the next episode...
Good luck with the conversion! And respect for edubble!
Loving the build can't wait to see what it becomes

I can see a great build coming. Im working on an e30 project on my channel. :)
If you ever plan on going with aftermarket headers you should do it now, your future self will thank you for it.
So fun to watch😋🤗
