318ti.org forum - View Single Post - What swaps are legal in California?

I have my s52 ti BAR-ed... I got my hands on a crashed 8/1997 M3 and swapped everything over into my 7/1997 ti. No problems at the BAR referee. It was easy to do. Just showed paper work on crashed M3 and on my ti. And the put a sticker on my car saying it is a legal swapped car. No issues smogging it too.
