trying to do something similar with my m54 engine off my e46 330 i might give this a shot
My E36 also “broke” when I wasn’t driving it. The damn trunk badge fell off when I was washing it. Car sounds great btw, really can’t beat the Stromung muffler.
Hahaha, that’s definitely an E36 move. Just trying to wash it and crap falls off😂. Thanks bro!
What color is your car? It looks awesome
s54 e36 is my dream man
It’s such a good combo. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to let this one go😂🤷♂️
YESSIR
Put a bicycle style patch from the inside. I’ve had that happen to me too on my first day of installing re71rs :/
Aaah man, that sucks! Yeah, I was actually thinking about that, hahah. I forgot to update but Discount Tire was able to patch it and plug the hole too👍
Just got my e36. And quite new to this car hobby, any advice?
Mannn...Patience, lol. You ever heard that saying, "Measure twice, cut once."? Take that approach with mods and things you buy and you'll be golden! Ooh...and have a blast! 🤘
@@jpetro all right, thank you man! Keep up the great work. Il be sure to watch your videos👍
I drive a s54 swapped e36 but my exhaust is completely stock. What muffler did you use/recommend? I’m only looking to do a muffler right now, will def do catless/euro headers in the future
Nice! Have you dyno'd it with the stock E36 exhaust? I'd be curious to know how much that system is holding it back. As for what I went with, I'm kinda old and over having super loud exhausts, so I went with Stromung muffler. It sounds great! Definitely loud enough but won't blow your ear drums out.
Can we know more on the cluster?
For sure! Any specific questions? The reason I ask is, I'm by no means an expert in that area so more than likely I'll have to reach out to my buddies for any specific questions.
@@jpetro Well. Is this an overlay and did you code it with NCS Dummy? www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?2076675-Coding-different-speedometer-scale-on-E38-39-cluster
Been watching your videos and progress on your e36 and it's one hell of a car bro! Keep up the good work. Btw, do you happen to know the part number on those little mud guards? My e36 is in desperate need of new ones 😂
Thanks bro! Yessir! 51-71-8-130-071-BOE and 51-71-8-130-072-BOE👍. The best price I found was on Pelican Parts.
Jumpy idle during cold startup.. Yep it sounds like a s54 to me.
Uuuugh, that buuuuugs me😂😂😂. I’m hoping when we code out the DME issues and load in a new tune it’ll fix that 🤞
@@jpetro Let us know if it does. I have no engine lights on my e46 m3. No notable air leaks and I cleaned my throttle body along with my idle control. Rebuilt vanos etc.. I still have that issue. It goes away when warmed and many people have the same issue. Some say it is normal and was like that since new. I dont buy it.
I got an e36 myself and was wondering if you think this swap would still be viable in like 5-10 years. I really wanna enjoy the s52 until the end but I don’t want to let this car go and this is the best swap I can think of. I’m worried all these s54s and the parts will be either high mileage just not worth it. Anyways really love the vids man!
Also I live in Cali do you think I could get this swap CARB approved if I decide to swap?
Mannn, I'm sure it'll still be viable in 5-10 years but if you have a good S52, that's really a solid platform. My S50 had like, 230k miles and was on the way out. If I would have had a solid S52, honestly, I probably would have built it. I like that engine! I'm pretty sure you can get the S54 swap carb legal but I'm not 100%.
bro what do you do for work?
Yo! I do internet marketing/Ecommerce. I've been doing internet marketing for like, 15 years. I made some videos about it a long time ago but no one seemed interested.
If anyone wants to learn about Jesus Christ read the Bible or reply and I’ll send you some Bible Verses. The outline of Noah’s Ark was found.
Car sounds great with resonators. Screw in the tire? Get your dad to sweep up shop better!!! Slacker!
Nice one Jordan
