1985 Mtech 1 coupe, M52B28 swap/birthday, lotsa questions!
hybrid replied to Jacko's topic in Performance
AKG does .. set a side 15-20mins and go through their site and you can make one up fairly easy. If not just contact them via the site and they are more than helpful. Around the EWS, you only need to align the DME to the EWS and key IF you don't have the original EWS and key that came with the DME. Otherwise EWS won't be a problem as it all worked in the donor car. you also need the reader coil from any e36 car. Most of your time is going to be getting the wiring working. Also building new fusebox connections. -

-M52B28 + DME + EWS and matched key / transponder chip + and reader coil +Engine Loom OR have a chat to ray @ HellBM as he does alignments and has the gear to make a DME talk with other kit -E28 M5 mounts. Are the M5 mounts different to standard E28 mounts? yes, m5 ones have correct bolt offset and the best stiffness. -Custom gearbox crossmemember, looks easy enough to make. Modifed e30 manual one should be fine -Clutch kit. Any recommendations? Its a daily driver so I dont want anything stupid, but still "spirited" daily driver! Make your own up .. its a lot cheaper and you get what you want. What you want is a 6-7kg lightened single mass flywheel 2500 - 3000lb pressure plate spring rate+ carbon kevlar sprung clutch and balance the whole lot together. This combo works without gearbox chatter (or very little). Redline hotmix of MT-90 and 75W90 NS (mt-90 contains friction modifiers) -Brake booster - Mk1 Golf GTI? Are there others that fit? I can imagine getting a Mk1 booster will be a PITA! theyre not too rare .. got mine in a few days.. Do you actually need this for a m50? s50 conversions only need this as the plenium doesnt fit -E34 sump ( oil pickup from the M20? ) yes (oil pick up from an e34) -Any OEM radiators that'll fit? or is a getting a chinese Ali core and custom the end tanks the go? Obviously wanna ditch the viscous fan and go electric. What thermostat doofas do I need? e36 OEM radiator will fit, dont bother with the chinese alloy ones. Custom alloy ones are 1000-1800, I got a Fluidyne one imported from the US landed for $1080 to my door from fortyone.co.nz -Any recommendations for the exhaust? Diameter and mufflers? Dont want it loud. a nice e36 one is fine if your going custom or you could modify a OEM one easy enough Apart from belts/idlers on the M52, is there anything else I should change before bolting it in to the bay? im not sure if your steering will be a problem or not with the factory exhaust manifold, was a PITA on the s50 but thats a different story. Pretty sure there is other things, cant think right now. Get a good welder or do yourself if you have the gear. Youll need welded and bolted drive shaft loops. If you mess with the steering rack dont cut and weld it as you have to go through a whole world of pain and extra certification lucky you can un-bolt and bolt some pretty cool solutions with BMWs. Your gear linkage clearnace may be an issue .. not sure again here with the m52 vs e30 but something to think about Any part numbers for the above bits would be awesome, Itll make me sound cleverer when I go hunting for em http://www.realoem.com is your friend hmmm around wiring, Most of the info in the states is for the face lift e30 and not pre-fl. So there are some difference in the starter setup / ignition and relays. understanding e30 WDS is key also the m50/52 loom diagrams. -
You didnt miss much ..

Cool, Well if we dont police this sh*t .. its just bad for all. With all us keeping an eye on this type of crap the thieves will move on as it just wont work.
-
Can someone please notify trademe .. dont need this sort of thing happening in the BMW community. I would but I dont have a trademe account.
-
really ? there are three others that are in minter condition and want less or have gone for less. LHD too
-
I beg to differ on pretty much all accounts in this thread.
-
man theres some turd in this thread..
-
sweet a nice afternoons work and youll be sorted. Just with the front drive shaft loop you need to bolt through the tunnel with high tensile bolts. You cant just get away with welding too the tunnel. Took mine a little to get done as space is tight with shifter linkage and driftshaft. Your cert guy can tell you what he expects.
