The Basics of Manual Swapping - Rare JDM E36

[@glixealt8420]

I have a JDM 325i in the states and have found practically no resources for any differences, this is awesome to find, thanks!

[@hyper8545]

Thats a great jdm bmw to start a build with. 😮

[@DriftHQ]

Its clean for sure!

[@fitnesspoint2006]

you guys should placed brass clutch pedal and brake pedal bushings when the assembly was out. You can see the slop in the clutch pedal when you were pushing it with your hand. Also when the trans was out a dssr selector rod should have been placed, as the oem one has too much slop.

Just made the weekend awesome!!! Amazing content, as always.

[@DriftHQ]

Great to hear! 🙏

[@DriftHQ]

Thank you

[@arthurkroes4027]

Realy love this one

[@DriftHQ]

Glad you like it! 🙏

[@logslides]

Really cool seeing this. I have a jdm market 323 also in the states. Sourced most of my parts so far. But had no idea the wiring would be different. That’ll come in handy for sure when I go to swap it!

[@E36Fix]

thank you for actually explaining the wiring

[@chinchi7455]

Got the same exact car, trying to manual swap it as well

[@hesha108]

Exciting

[@DriftHQ]

🤩

[@TheMrCristal]

Tommy is the best we need to see more of his v10 e82🤌🏼

[@DriftHQ]

Soon! He's traveling to all the events with us!

[@shifty1927]

Nice zf🔥 Just cleaned out my old storage unit that had 2 sitting in there since 07 with less than 50k miles. Not nearly that nice though. Dont even know why im holding on to them. Been running a faceplated tremec for 15 years now.😂

[@DriftHQ]

Send them over here😅

[@texaspowerman]

Very nice video and such a nice car to do it in, quite the score. Nice voiceover as well.

[@DriftHQ]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

[@LeonardoIglesias-v1e]

Manual swap in less than a day is insane

[@DriftHQ]

Very straightforward when you have all the parts!

[@ImAlive11550]

Y'all should pay him a lil extra to do a voiceover narration in French for the non English speaking crowd & to help spread your content to new audiences.

[@DriftHQ]

Yes! Now that we figured out the mic setup! We'll see. He might be going back home soon

[@koenpolstra6060]

​@@DriftHQ Winter's almost gone.... it's tryin' to hang on for dear life though lol.

[@Beemerboii]

The auto diff would have been better unless their new one is lsd. The auto diff is higher ratio so it would improve the drivability of the 323.

[@braniak]

Hey there. Nice video. How do you clean the solenoid valve (1-5) errors from the AT to appear in the OBD scanner? Thanks.

[@IzPOV]

Great Content 👍

[@DriftHQ]

Thank you 🙏

[@tashreeq_SA]

south african e36's have the backup chimes as well 22:22

[@DriftHQ]

Awesome! Didn't know

[@benwentworth2526]

did you ever end up removing the starter? watched a couple videos as im planning to do this with mine. I have a 1998 328i

[@Aleks_Mechanics]

Notification squad Have a great weekend!🔥🔥🔥

[@DriftHQ]

Thank you 🙏

[@carlooooo0]

Adam’s s50 in his blue car would be perfect for this newly manuel swapped e36.

[@DriftHQ]

That would be a WILD swap

[@zader253]

As a Canadian e36 owner, the rust is real out here lmao

[@Dirtyz1234]

I'm over here having swapped my E46 with a ZF 5 speed and now want to go back to an 8hp auto 😅

[@DriftHQ]

🤔 times have changed haha 😅

[@MubeenAfridi00]

Im From Germany i have e36 328i butt automatic i also Swap Plan next Month😁

[@b_baker]

I like the change up, different editor and such?

[@DriftHQ]

Thank you! Still me. Just trying different styles. Also helps that I love E36 stuff - Joel

[@b_baker]

@@DriftHQ Awesome! I enjoyed the narration over the cinematics since it was a more how to type video, gave me Taylor Ray/ old man's garage vibes! Good to switch it up sometimes too, gets me excited too since I'll be manual swapping my e46 very very soon, have been sitting on the parts to do it for months now.

[@jessemorgan3409]

You guys should Xi swap an e30 and make a safari contender for Adam!

[@DriftHQ]

Safari build would be great

[@rickverhoeven1064]

Is the color Daytona violet? Color looks amazing!!

[@DriftHQ]

Mora metallic, thanks!

[@RamirezZ2083]

Where you weld the 2 reverse wires ?

[@henokabraha5011]

Love it, where is this location I just want swap my e36 and how much they cost? Please!

[@DriftHQ]

We do not do public work. Any reputable shop should be able to do this!

[@henokabraha5011]

Ok thanks!

[@manleys]

What was the total cost of the swap?

[@kzarnold3678]

Interesting stuff 🤔

[@DriftHQ]

Thank you!

[@adventureswithsteph5352]

How much do you charge to do this on e36 m3 with main parts provided?

[@DriftHQ]

We don't work on customer cars

[@Blastedaf]

Needed this video I’m doing a s54/manual swap on my e36m3 vert ❤❤🙏🙏

[@DriftHQ]

Glad we could help👊

[@Vgk36]

Exactly what clutch kit ? I’m gathering parts for my 96 328i swap! Just in time vid! 4:22

[@greengoono1]

if its stock clutch in video then it different to 328i because 323i comes with 228mm clutch and 328i comes with 240mm clutch

[@DriftHQ]

Sachs OEM clutch. Off FCP Euro

[@bavarianhero]

3.08 diff, I got one a while back with a subframe. I was wondering if it’s worth swapping with an e92 n54 stock ratios.

[@DriftHQ]

It's a longer diff than what's in there. Would be more economical and sluggish if you go down.

[@bavarianhero]

@@DriftHQ then na, I’ll stick to the OEM one then. I got the subframe and diff a long time ago when I kissed the curb. Turns out you can weld those parts too, the parts I messed up.

[@KennarKrutto-k5o]

Whats happend whit the beaters ?

[@DriftHQ]

Broken somewhere haha

[@CraaaigV302]

Did u have to re-upload this?

[@DriftHQ]

This is the only time it's been uploaded

[@arsamedia2494]

Where do the remove light wires go to?

[@DriftHQ]

You meant Reverse? They go to the side of the new transmission

[@adamthroop785]

Is this similar to an E30 manual swap?

[@DriftHQ]

Yes the fundamentals are all there

[@Timrsnakess]

ah man ive been watching this for hours but im its only 10 mins in
