Such a great journey it has been. Enjoyed every bit of it. Give Frank the praise he deserves for busting his ass for all of us!!
Watch this vid great job .love it keep the vids coming my brother BMW
Thanks Jay!
are you selling that cars ?
We need a E46 N54 👍 up next
B58 would be better , those engines are far better than n54s
Lou Cacevic Yeah, finally seems like a solid successor to the N54. Only issue now is price lol
@@SamAbraham price of the engine is high now but cars are not too high on price 2016 and up models got the b58s
Lou Cacevic true, but even a salvage F30 340 would probably be considerably more than a salvage E90 335, if someone’s concerned about cost I guess
Yes, please!!! And if you do it on a coupe, I'll happily buy it afterwards.
How am I just now hearing about this? That's a build well done.
Those are the comments I like to hear!
the e36 is so beautiful. everything you habe done seems perfect.
respect to the work ❤️
Discovered this channel and binge watched the E36 N54 series. This channel deserves way more subs.
Thank you!! I guess I just need to keep creating content and see what happens! Tell your friends I guess, because I aint stopping anytime soon!
Way more subs. Agreed!
wayyyyy more
@@Garageaholic I looked at the amount of subs you got and my jaw dropped. Some youtubers with 500k dont post this great of content. You can tell alot of work has gone into this channel. Thank you for all the great content!
@@thatreviewguy6109 Wow. Very well thought out comment. Thank you very much for the booster. Hope to continue helping the community!!
I bet those 5 dislikes are for you blasting music over the exhaust note, which was pretty lame.
Other than that, pretty damn cool.
Now do an S65 motor into and E46 M3.
Point Taken! That and gum chewing! LOL
I was going crazy at that point
@@Garageaholic
But seriously, what you did was way cool and you sharing the info equally as cool.
You just gotta love the BMW community, there's nothing like it as far as sharing info. And of course the obvious; the cars really are the ultimate driving machine.
No please dont put that in a e46 any other motor though
Congrats on finishing the e36 N54 marathon. The new customer clearly loves the outcome. I enjoyed the clean build, the details you were focussing on and the growing crowd that followed you. Thx for sharing it with us.
E36 man
my bad. changed it.👍
Guys, awesome video and explanation. Looks like a great swap although the coding seems a bit daunting. We’ll certainly consider an N54 for future swaps after watching this video.
Thank you! Car is getting fine tune coded by Kassel currently!
Whole progress looks lit man! Loving the whole thing! The length of your work put into this is incredible!
Wonderful job Frank! Have never been more motivated to do something like this myself! Hoping that kassel DME flash becomes available to the public so we can bypass CAN! Kudos for being a literal pioneer and making it readily available for everyone else! Onto my binge-watching tour of your next series ahaha
Holy f... great job. Congratz on the final build!
Congrats on building something truly epic! Amazing stuff I love it
Thank you for that. Love the fuel!
Great UA-cam recommendation! My favourite 3-Series gen...love the E36! Top work!
Great job on the build. Thanks for documenting the process
You're very welcome. Hope this helps motivate/educate you in whatever way possible!
Cool build! Nice to see an E36 with something other than an LS swap. E30 wagon!! Long live the long roofs!!
Hahah thanks for the comment man!!
Awesome project!!! Love it.
Great vídeo as well. Congratulations
wow, absolutely amazing work guys.
Amazing and incredibly beautiful work frank 😮💨🙌
Seriously cool. Can't wait to see that e30 touring done!
Awesomeness! Can't wait for the e30! Keep up the great work
Wonderful job. Iwill wait your next video
Nice man, been watching on the forums. Awesome to see it finished!
Great content man. Wish you all best!
Thanks for standing by me as I work through this!
Congrats on completing an awesome project! Looking forward to that e30 touring!
Heck yeah thanks for your interest!!
I think you’re one of the first to actually successfully swap a N54 into a E36 with all the hassle of the wiring. I’ve seen a lot of threads online where people get caught up in the wiring and sell their projects. This is one of the first super documented swaps I’ve seen.
Thank you very much for recognizing that! I hope you learned something from this. Now on to e30 chassis!
@Garageaholic hay man I have a buddy that wants to do this swap I'm just now finding your page & of course I sent it to him ASAP...lol
My buddy is stuck on the wiring... how do I find that info & part's
Check out my website garageaholic.build, and you can first download free snippets of the guide and if you like it you can download the entire guide. The wiring section alone is over 100 pages of detail
dude literally done everything bro like just water pump, alt pws , you good
Great swap. Very clean. Keep up the great work.👍🏻
Thanks Joe
Well done guys, great job 👍👍
Such an awesome build, i would love to do this to my e36 M3. Thanks for the video :)
Awesome work Frank!
Well done gbalz, very well done
I felt sorry for the US in the 90's, because you guys got an E36 M3 with basically a 328i engine in, nothing like the European E36 M3 with the early ones making just under 300bhp, and the later ones making 320bhp.
This is a great project though, well done, and thank you for taking the time to document it.
Good comment - 100% agree!
Wow amazing work. Wish i had your patients to do this.
king of bmw swap soo far ive seen all over videos but no one compares to you god bless you for the good job ur doing for us thank you
Thank you so much for that! So glad to hear it from a fan!
Great job finishing the e36!
The n54 touring swap has got me excited. Seems much more powerful, and cheaper than the s54 swaps.
Can't wait for the videos and writeup. Finally something specific (IN ENGLISH) for exactly my car.
Hey! Happy to help Petar. Next project intro video coming out on Saturday!
What an incredible build! Really. I like the mission statement on the website which tells it like it is. When I see this crashed E92 I don't understand how the owner could have just sold it off and not repaired it BUT I'm much more happy that our wonderful host on this channel took said engine out of that crashed E92 and used it for all of our benefit! THANK YOU! I have a 2002 330CI swapped out with the entire drive train and interior suspension etc from a 2006 M3 Competition. However even though the drive train has fairly low mileage as of now the Chassis has 68350 Miles on it and the Vanos has been done catless headers have been installed and It runs like a deer. (It's an old person thing sorry) the chassis which now has over about 250,000 Miles on it and a few more years of salt and mud (which I did the rear subframe plates and all of the bushings) is not happy. The previous owner had decided to Plasti Dip the car white a few years before I bought it. Having seen a few tiny bubbles in the paint before he did this he scratched the paint away down to the bare metal right at the rear quarter panel where it meets the lower half and left it. This was of course covered up by the plasti Dip so it wasn't even noticeable when I bought the car. One day I decided to remove the PD (which actually took me over a week to do because he had not put enough of it on to make it peel-able so I was in a PD he11 lol) it was then that I saw the now rusted area of the rear quarter panel. It wasn't too bad I thought and I didn't rush to fix it so it wasn't even looked at for two more years because I just did the cosmetic temp fix of filler, paint and clear. It was after I decided to fix it right that I now find myself facing bigger decisions about what to do next. I opened up that quarter and it had eaten away the entire insides of the car on that side so much that the quarter has a two foot by three inch hole in it and all the way into the trunk! So to make a long story longer I am thinking about putting all the great drive train into an E30 or well I just don''t know. So thank you for the great inspiring videos!!! I am very hopeful now! Sorry for the long boring comment.
WOW!!!! Glad I just stumbled on to your channel. Epic swap!!!
Thanks more to come!!
Big RESPECT Man! You built many BMW lovers favorite car 😊😊
you definitely deserve more subs your work is awesome man keep it up. its my dream to be able to do stuff like this for a living
Great example of passion and persistence. That evo steering wheel, contours, and those alpinas on the e30...wonderful. Maybe a Motorsport trim piece over the glovebox with a custom engraving. Great job!
Thanks for that! Yeah we’ll see what Ben does!
Amazing video got e36 1995 328 manual convertible also building e30 325 1986 2 door full restoration can't wait to see video of that next build !!
COOLEST DUDE EVER!!!!!! MUCH LOVE, MAD RESPECT
AMAZING JOB. plus interesting to notice how old BMW s look so much better than those of the 2000 era and today
You sir are a modern day magician. Huge respect to you.
Hey tHanks man!!

This video popped up on my recommended and I’m glad it did. Subscribed and can’t wait to see the e30 n54 swap!!
Thanks man!!!! Appreciate that
Amazing! An e39 n54 engine would be unique :))
Nice!!!! Great videos👌
14:06 Owner driving, tires peeling rubber as he runs thru the gears and says, "Liking That!"
Frank: gives his insane but very sane meniacal car guy laugh that only another crazy car guy would understand
Hahaha see? you understand! #iykuk 🤣😂
Great job, I Love it
Congrats Frank again, this is one of the most ambitious car project I have ever seen. Your videos were great, always accompanying my lunchtime at work. Clear, concise instructions and a very friendly face. I don't understand how you managed to do this while still having a dayjob AND writing the GUIDE??? What the hell where did you find the time?
I will buy it and I will do this, and will always give you credit in my videos. Keep it up! and THANK YOU!
Thanks Etienne. Wish we could have met. Maybe another time soon! I look forward to it. You are a loyal fan. I appreciate that. Let's meet up one day at some show in Syracuse, Buffalo, Rochester....whatever is in between us!
This is so sick!
Nice project !
Nice job bro
This is awesome!!!!
I'm so excited about your projects! Please do an N54 or S54 swap in a E39! :)
Yes yes yes
U a god damn legend. Jst watched ur e30 touring n54 swop
Thank you!
Subscribed! This is awesome
I shudder to think what the total cost would of been if you charged labour by the hour... Outstanding work. Blows my mind
E46 N54 swap next! Great work
Congratulations and I am excited for that wagon project. Ultimate sleeper driving machine.
You and me both!
@@Garageaholic Has it been started?
See my e30 n54 finale video.
@@Garageaholic I love ❤️ it. Such a promoter you are 😉.
Nice job 👍
Bro you are amazing.
Nice build luv it
Great vid, I'm subbed!
Dude you‘re winning at this!!
I’m really really trying!
Garageaholic🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
FANTASTIC , did u do a remap or stock map ?
I want to see how reasonable it would be in a E46 would love to see that !
I think someone is doing an e46 wagon rn
This... So much. An E46 with an N54 would be absolutely fantastic.
There is one on UA-cam.
As a 09 E90 335i owner I 100% support this
You guys are crazy 🤙🏻
Top stuff 👌🏼👌🏼
Cannot wait to do this! What is the difficulty level with the swap guide? And would the mhd tuner help the cat less downpipe issue?
Ahhhhh so stoked for this E30 touring project next, instant subscribe lol. Post these projects up on the N54 facebook group, instagram and the message boards!
I thought I did which ones am I missing!? Let me know!!
@@Garageaholic I posted it up on the N54/N55 tuning facebook group. Theres also an N55 group, general BMW groups, plus all of the E36 groups like E36 World
Need one on E46!!!
Awesome !
This video got my sub and like. Good job guys
Thanks Sam!
What a beauty. I want a e92 335i with the n54 but gas is to high right now plus i plan on swapping the twin turbos to a single. One of these days.
Good job 👍👍👍👍
I’m late... but Amazing dude!! Thx
You

EARLY!!!
Thanks for coming aboard!!!
Good job bro, love the music
E46 Next
U are smart u know every things in ur Car WOW
Beautiful
Bad ass swap and video definetly earned a like and a sub
Thanks bud!
Garageaholic would you ever n63/s63 swap something? I always thought that would be cool but a lot of people don’t like that engine family
@@RedDirtWrenching I have actually thought about it. It's got its issues, but if I can get my hands on a wrecked F10, could be interesting idea!!
That's so cool guys. I'm doing M30B30 swap in my E21 and it's a bit tough. I saw you have an E21 in the garage as well. Have you done swaps to it?
