Love the videos and all of your hard work! I appreciate what you are doing and trying to solve for everyone else. Just come constructive criticism, you and I know you’ve memorized every wire, color, and function. But viewers have not. It’s extremely confusing for learning viewers to make sense of what you are showing them with a huge bundle of wires. Takes a long time but I would suggest printing off a huge diagram and placing on a table to help viewers visualize and most importantly, understand what they are doing. Maybe along with the harness for an added visual. Obviously you are filming as you go and the job must go on! Keep it up man! Love your stuff
Wow - very thoughtful comments! Yes so I may produce another video detailing the CAS wiring. I will issue an N54 integrators guide. While I am giving 80% of the farm for free, the other 20% needs to generate some revenue so I can continue to do cool projects for my subs. So there’s a healthy balance there that I’m trying to establish with too much or not enough detail provided. You familiar with Patreon? Someone suggested that earlier and I’m considering it. Anyway thanks again - great comment and I’ll do what I can!
Great job! I’m doing a n52 to n54 swap in my 07 e60. I’ve been into the wiring also, so I feel your pain . I’m coming from a na motor that runs variable timing, which carries multiple power wires. I believe I’m the first one to do it to an e60 using a n52 transmission. I’m hope to also get her running soon, nothing feels better that reap the fruits of your labor!
incredible work, worthy of admiration, my most sincere congratulations, I want to build the same project with mine, how could I contact you for some doubts I have? Is the gearbox M3 e36? or that of the 335i donor?
Thanks for the compliments. Can you be more specific with the model/year m3? E92 m3 is v8 s65 so that will not work. Check out my IG Stories for more info on trans!
Garageaholic I wanted to know what gearbox is used for the swap, if it is the M3 e36 or the 335i, as I could see I miss other thousands of questions, for the doubts that I have that are many, I want to build this same project in my BMW , in my case we ablamos of a 325i e36 coupe, manual change, without variable distribution, (NOT VANOS) but here in Spain, there are not people prepared for this type of modification, could you provide me with your email to communicate better? use Whatsapp? A GREETING AND THANKS FOR YOUR ANSWER
It will be released on Halloween. One week before release I will start to promote and get the word out. I have been working on this tirelessly the last couple months. Thanks for your interest! Frank
👏👏👏 easily the best DIY I have seen. Great work Frank. Thank you.
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Lot of work that goes into this. Too bad more people dont have the attention span to see how helpful all this info and experience will be.
Appreciate the sentiment. My next swap will be more general flow and info. I will probably be slightly less technical.
great job frank
Thanks Josh - thanks for watching. Any constructive feedback on what you DIDNT like?
I would love to see this with an e46

Garageaholic is the guide out yet ? I couldn’t find it

Any swap guides available for a e39?
Sorry nothing for the e39
