Thanks for sharing all these details. Most thorough. I'm running M54 in E36/7 Z3 Roadster and would rather swap than blow the M54. I'm told the order of upgrade is Driver, Brakes, Suspension, Tires, then lastly Power. Have done the second, third and fourth, always workin on the driver. S54 would be around a 100 point increase in power. The S54 may very well be the most desireable inline six NA from Munich. The SIX! throttle body design is amazing
Omg!! You inspired me to do the same swap/setup.. I love the clean bay, i have a 97 318i 4dr. Motor is done. Right now, there's no engine in it. Will i need to change my rear diff? Hey, you wanna do the work for me?? Lmfao jk 😅
I'm confused as to why we can't just use everything from the E46 M3 and swap it over to whatever car we're swapping to?? Maybe there's something I just don't get other than the oil pan, sump and any change in mounts and braketry?? ❤😮🎉❤😊😊😮😮❤❤❤❤
I have never seen an S54 engine in USA for less than $4500, and that was with some mileage on it. Another question - why did you choose E36 over E46 M3?

Go the 6 speed ull love it !!
I want to find one this coming year, then throw in a 3.64 diff
That's what I put in recently ! It's mint good ratio for s54
You got a killer deal on the engine.
Is your dme an hp one ?
Nope its the earlier model non hp, originally thought i needed the HP for the csl tune but guess not
@@_unclemuscles oh cool, what do you need to do to get the alpha tune in a non hp dme ?
🤙🏾
could make a s52 naturaly aspirated for 3 grand make 270-275whp.
Highly doubt that, maybe with cams and a stroker engine. But thats gonna be more than 3k
Your RSII's taunt me as I cant get them in VW PCD in 20"
Damn. Here I'm thinking 20k for a built engine alone
I mean probably 20k to have a shop do it. But as long as you get the motor for a reasonable price it aint that bad
Just the engine is atleast 7.500€ in Germany right now
Neulich durchgerechnet und jn de kannste mit 30k aufwärts rechnen, je nachdem wie billig du die Teile erwischt, und wv du selber hinkriegst
