What I like about the older car is like a time capsule like going back 30 years when time where good & no doom and gloom

[@TURBOTRISTO]

That’s true man great outlook

[@RexH]

this thing is gonna absolutley rip when its done. veery excited!

[@TURBOTRISTO]

It will be soo nice to drive I cannot wait, shame about all the missing parts

[@lloydshondabordello]

Have never clicked off a Nighride video so fast, this was definitely the better E30 video to watch. F A N T A S T I C UPDATE. Is this a case that you can pull the stickers off the rubix cube and fix em 🤣 Far out, the parts should've come with a custom 10mm hand to fit between the mount and block 😉 Those are some tight tight tight tolerances but you absolutely slayed. LIKE A GLOVE. You'll have to get some more of the 2 people jobs sorted out next week. I'm glad you're looking into things to keep everything simple and serviceable 🤘 Keep spooling Turbo Tristian ✌️

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Thanks bro appreciate the support

[@lloydshondabordello]

@@TURBOTRISTO my pleasure, jjust spitting truth. You've been going at lightspeed and I'm thoroughly entertained and impressed.

[@bluecheese861]

Hey, I recently did an M52 swap on my E30 and you might need to get an external bottle for the coolant. From water bottle it pulls to the bottom below the intake and the one behind the block goes to the heater then out to the radiator. Dont take my word for it :)

[@TURBOTRISTO]

thanks blue cheese i am still stuck on this I have been instructed by the vehicle owner to park ythis project for the next month and focus on the vl , but I honestly cannot wait to get it done!

[@shakcs6529]

Hello, love the build, wanted to know how did the vaccum hose delete in your intake manifold?

[@TURBOTRISTO]

I think i melted it shut I honestly cant remember

[@Savage_K]

Hello , nice vidoe am currently doing the same swap , could you please make a tutorial video about the wiring and gearbox shirfter mounting

[@TURBOTRISTO]

The wiring kit is from brintech customs, the shifter I can do

[@nickcosta4326]

​@Nick Costa how is it holding up?

[@akiyz_xd1751]

If i install the engine and the gearbox, its probably upside down 😅 Its looks hard and i probably cant do it

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Haha nah it’s not that hard

[@0618ramon]

The powers steering pump did you have any issues with clarence for the front sump oil pan ? If so how did you fix the issue? Iam doing a M52B28TU swap myself.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

no clearence issue

[@E30E36]

Hello, m54b30 e30It's a swap. I'm not nervous. Do I have to delete the immobil from the eCU? This is the last gate. Please tell me how to do it Thank you.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

For this one I would speak with an Auto electrician

[@yellowjoe.2000]

excellent video. is the wiring harness, ecu and electronics difficult with the m54? i assume this would be the same level of difficulty with e34 and e32 bmw?

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Yep all the same difficult with all models, I didn’t do any of the wiring in this one, so I can’t say for certain it comes as part of the kit

[@yellowjoe.2000]

@TURBOTRISTO i see! there is a wiring kit specifically made for e30?

[@TURBOTRISTO]

@yellowjoe.2000 there sure is

[@yellowjoe.2000]

@@TURBOTRISTO that is great. maybe that same company can make a custom wiring system for an e32.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

email them brintech customs look them up on facebook and insta and tell them i sent you

😜👍🇦🇺

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Thanks richo

[@ElectronicCircuits]

how you install water temperature sensor? any photo? its on the custom metal duct? thanks

[@TURBOTRISTO]

I’ll have to look into it

[@kodieread3544]

How'd you about the electric throttle setup in terms of mounting it?

[@TURBOTRISTO]

E46 pedal bolts in and the wiring plugs in to the e46 harness

[@kodieread3544]

@@TURBOTRISTO doesn't need an extra mount? As the factory e30 plastic pedal just clips into the floor

[@TURBOTRISTO]

yep so does the e46 pedal and there is a 10 or 12 mm bolt aswell

[@kodieread3544]

Cheers mate

[@fantasteur9844]

Did you use stock e30 subframe and stock e46 engine mount ?

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Yes, I strengthened it though
