Most EPIC e30 build thread ever

[Andre3000 55]

This guy has got some serious skills/patience. Worth a read if you've got an afternoon/sleepless night to burn.

The actual conversion would be a lot better to read if you didnt have to scroll through all the crap

I CBF reading it:

1) is it going?

2) properly?

3) how'd he get around the electronic issues?

[westy 614]

The threads basically gone dead so thats an indication...

Last I saw

1) yes

2) no

3) he hasn't.

Ah yes, the guy from MIT ... quite a genius that fella. I believe he's managed to also Frankenstein an E60 M5 steering wheel onto his E46 with the S54 transplant ... amongst all sorts of other hybrids (although if you study some of the work carefully, it's actually quite rangi).

Personally I prefer this build (more so for the workmanship and quality really):

That car is ridiculous... absolutely amazing what they have done there

So goddamned rough.

Use S50B32 sensors and management if you really want the hassle of an S54'd E30.
