Default EVERYTHING needed for a swap

s52 swap OBD2 to OBD2

m3 components needed
-engine ~5000
-cluster ~250
-radiator ~150
-80c thermostat
-ecu, and complete (matching to engine, and transmission )wiring harness ~250 or included
-EWS(security system) to be aligned by dealership ~100
-Custom Intake ~100+
-Complete m3 exhaust up to muffler, which does not fit ~300
-e46 330 OEM or aftermarket muffler, or custom muffler that fits (magnaflow) ~150+

optional but recommended
-transmission ~450
-m3 clutch and flywheel ~100 or included
-mcoupe or mroadster LSD differential ~500
-matching driveshaft to differential ~150
-front m3 brakes, preferably with complete front brakes ~700
-17" + wheels to clear m3 brakes, if you went this route. Preferably wider then 8"
-m3 alternator ~75
-

Please feel free to add, I might have left something out. I got tired of people asking, and us telling to search, when there is no definative thread



According Dredder, but make sure your number of bolts match 6 or 4 on both ends:
1. 318ti tranny use 318ti driveshaft
2. m3 tranny uses m3 drive shaft
3. Mroadster tranny use mroadster driveshaft.



Total required labor should be around $2500, or $3500 with all optional installed

A wheel tire combo that does NOT give enough traction after this mod is 17X7.5" with Yokohama es100 tires 215 wide. First and second gear can lose traction. 17x9" wheels with 255-40-17 performance tires does fit all around, with 15mm spacers up front, and fender rolling in rear. This provides good dry traction.
