I picked up a really nice 98 ti a few months ago and then quickly purchased a wrecked 98 M3 to use as a donor for the ti. I plan to start an engine conversion build thread pretty soon, as the project is already underway. I have already removed the S52 from M3, but still working on some of the cosmetics before swapping. I am an engineer by day, and don't have a whole lot of spare time to work on my car hobby, but hope to keep a steady stream of BMW activities going. I have also seen the good reviews of Jim's S52 swap manual and would like to get a copy, but I have to get 5 posts before I can PM. 2 down, 3 to go! |  |  | | 12-08-2015, 12:06 AM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2012 Location: Dodging potholes in SoCal Posts: 454 |
