Hello brothers and sisters!! This is my FIRST attempt at such a daunting task. Keep in mind that I'm only somewhat a weekend mechanic (oil changes, suspension, starters....ect.) I have been putting this off for some time now, mainly because I've been scared to start this. I know I'm doing this to a rare clubsport but oh well, it needs more power!!
Now that the weather is getting a bit warmer and I'm tired of not having garage space, here we go. My 1999 S52 is coming from my e30 cabrio. It is already setup as OBDI. I will be replacing the harness and oil pan. The harness is really ugly and I just don't trust it. I plan on scraping the e30 because of rust issues. So my first task is to take it apart and sell whatever I can. I have already sold the suspension, 3.73lsd diff (should have kept it), trailing arms, bits and pieces of interior.
I am really proud of myself with what I accomplished today so far. I removed the engine harness (I have NO IDEA where everything will get plugged back in), Intake manifold, exhaust, and I'm currently working on the drive shaft (lunch break). Let me know what you guys think and please comment if you see that I'm doing something wrong. Here are a few pics....
I hope I know where everything goes back.....
