I got a 6 spd from 530 it had an e46 motor in it so wouldn’t that work as well?

[@TecKnowTech]

Yes

[@n00b1n4t0r]

the clutch you are using is meant to be used with Dual Mass Flywheels. That's why it has no springs. To avoid chatter and stress on your crankshaft you ll need the clutch from Valeo Single Mass Conversion kit

[@TecKnowTech]

👌

[@lefora87]

cool mechanics doing the work with passion ✌💪

[@teamnicejp]

We appreciate it bro 🙏🏼 any content you would like to see in particular?

[@lefora87]

Hey guys I would like to see a conversation of m54b25 to m54b30 the parts needed and software... currently own a 325i👊😁

[@teamnicejp]

@@lefora87 thank you for the input that’s a good idea! We’ll keep this in mind Chris does alot of swaps so we’ll find the opportunity to do it. 🙏🏼

[@lefora87]

Cool can't wait💪👊

[@jasonson86]

I’ll give you the sub for this big dawg. Just what I needed.

[@teamnicejp]

Thank you man! 🙏🏼

[@mayday7932]

Hey, trying to plan this swap for myself. Did you use the e46 or e90 slave cylinder? Which clutch line?

[@mrdudee182]

Nice… 🔥🔥🔥

[@5818lopser]

What transmission brace you used? I recently swapped mine but the brace from donor car don’t fit

[@TecKnowTech]

E46 6 speed brace

[@bryme84]

How would this change for an all wheel drive? Thanks.

[@TecKnowTech]

This is only for rwd.

[@miguelangelvillavicencio3444]

very good work I already did just as you did. Now how do I program it to standard? please help

[@teamnicejp]

Chris says the software is called P/A Software hopefully that helps

[@miguelangelvillavicencio3444]

@@teamnicejp thank you very much

[@brianparker68]

My question being could you drill those 4 holes and use them for peace of mind.

[@TecKnowTech]

You can but not necessary. I mean if you think about it the e90 manuals transmission originally uses all aluminum bolts on the n52 engine lol.

[@kasrabahmanyar1193]

is their any way to fix the 4 bellhosuing bolts not lining up on the e90 trans??

[@TecKnowTech]

Parts list is in the description 👍

[@davidkoppe2430]

Wait what? E90 6speed into E46 swap? Is it bolt on? Always thought this could not be done?

[@TecKnowTech]

Yee parts list is on the description 👌

[@davidkoppe2430]

@@TecKnowTech awesome. Already have a e46 6speed but with worn synchros, according to your parts list I don’t need anything but swap with e90 6speed. Both are slightly different part numbers, do you know what’s the difference between the e46 and e90 version?

[@TecKnowTech]

@@davidkoppe2430 the belhousing is different, so four of the bolts do not line up. Just leave those bolts out like I did and you should be good 👍

[@israelmeza2243]

@@TecKnowTechwhich four bolts were those? Would you mind showing from a time stamp on the video.

[@TecKnowTech]

@@israelmeza2243 the two bottom oil pan bolts and two bolts that go on the side and I used bmw p/a soft to change the coding so car start without pressing the clutch pedal (euro spec) Also The throw out Bearing comes with the clutch kit

[@davidramez6219]

Two super happy and chill mechanics! Do you guys offer the transmission swap as a paid service?

[@teamnicejp]

Thanks bro! 🙏🏼 Yea Chris the owner of the wagon does transmission swaps.

[@benjaminmasl3988]

What do I need to manual swap my wagon as far as tuning goes.

[@themaincrunch8773]

Hell yeah!!! Need to do this to my wagon next! I would totally pay you to do it if my car was still back in the IE. I know that auto center anywhere. How much would you charge for something like this? Subbed 👍

[@teamnicejp]

Thank you man for the sub! 👍🏼 we would do it for cheap & a 12 pack.

[@nateruff8238]

Can you do a parts list please

[@jonathanvelasco8976]

Yoo where does it idle in 6th highway speed

[@rocaltarribapalma9683]

Hey guys! Good job, would love to know what programming you did to make it start

[@teamnicejp]

Chris said it’s called P/A Software

[@lilbreezi1243]

How did you get it to start with the computer? Other forms I saw had you rewiring parts of the harness to the ecu to get it to start?

[@teamnicejp]

Chris said he uses P/A Software.

[@israelmeza2243]

What program did Chris use to code the car? Looks like he did the coding so quick

[@VictorGarcia-wn5nd]

Yes,what program?

[@teamnicejp]

Chris said it’s called P/A Software

[@SavageJam]

what’s the model of the car?

[@TecKnowTech]

325i touring m54 b25

[@SavageJam]

@@TecKnowTech thank you. 6 speed swapping a m52tub25 323i

[@ijonathanf]

Would you sell it? Lol

[@TecKnowTech]

The car sold for 4K

[@antonverenych5003]
