- An old video I filmed before I sold the E30, figured I should upload it for those in the future that want to know before starting. It can be pretty cheap or pretty expensive depending on which route you choose!
Good shit bro. If u want to get cheaper on the swap buy the whole e34 as a non runner for $1000 or less and part out whats not needed to return the investment and get buy with $2500-3000 is my best advice. Great video tho!
Exactly what I did haha. So technically my total cost was less because return from the e34 parts
@@m3nameisjosh464Hey loved the video. New to e30s. Looking back would you say it was worth doing this swap vs going forced induction on the m20? I’m trying to figure what would make more sense in todays prices. Throwing a small quick spooling turbo on a m20 should be doable for 4-6k?
underrated BMW channel! Commenting for the algorithm ! Thanks Josh for the great content. Just found out my M20 is toast, guess which route I am going!
Thank you a ton man!!!
Love the videos, and older german cars keep up the great content
Thanks man!
Really like the price break downs
Man im building mine and its an m52 turbo swap and gosh ive spent over 8k just in parts for turbo and still haven’t installed the engine yet
Turbo 24v e30s are pointless.

@@weedshoes5089 ahhh makes sense thank you!
Bruh that Dakar yellow e36 in the background ❤❤❤❤❤
is the cooling system different for an 87 316i? and if so what parts do i need?
Sweet video Josh. I was under the impression that the e34 525i had the same zf transmission as the e36m3 and later 328i. Is this not the case? Is it just incompatible for this swap? Would love to hear from you or anyone with knowledge on the subject. Much thanks
91-92 525 has the same zf. It is compatible but means a different driveshaft. I wanted to eliminate changing any more components than I had to so i stayed with the getrag
@@m3nameisjosh464 thnak you so much, lifesaver
Thx for the info, can you leave a list with the parts?
is everything gonna carry over if i buy an e36 as a donor?
Great video. thanks
If you don't mind, I'm just starting this swap myself and I would live to pick your brain about it.
Hey josh what cars do you currently have can u tell me the year and model for a tiktok if u want I can tag u in it if u want
Dope
If it was a 1990 e30 318i would it be a direct swap aswell? Can I keep the cooling stock
No that stuff is all different
Does the m50 motor fit in the e30 or doe you have to modify the engin mounts?
E36 engine arms, condor 24v swap motor mounts and drops right in
Specs?? Hp and torq
Nice. Can't wait for more e24 feeds.😁
Well. It's either buying your e24 or an r100c James bond bike
R 1200c oops sy
I'm in NYC
Is it similar for the e28 535is? You think the swap is as easy?
the bmw overlord
Tell me I can hire you
What the heck do u do for a living. How do u afford this stuff, Jesus?
prostitution
Live with my parents. Run a little landscaping business, flip cars, part out cars. Lots of odd jobs.
How do you find the time with all those jobs? I pretty much do the same and have like no time
