This is preparation for my S85 into my E31 that I plan to pick up later this summer! The reason this swap is being done was a combination of happenstance and convenience. But hopefully when it's all done it will be a very unique car!
Yes this is difficult, but it is cheap. custom part buying is minimal due to all of the time spent in the welding and fabrication.
I've done a few engine swaps in the past so I have experience compartmentalizing the various aspects of the swap as to more easily break it down, piece by piece. Each aspect of the swap is a mini independent problem to solve, all the while keeping the end goal of efficient integration in mind.
Some more updates, but no pictures. Not many really to share on this one. Sort of a boring update. And that is.
PEDALS.
Accelerator Pedal swap from the old cable driven to the new E92 Electronic.
Auto to Manual Swap and discussing hydraulic clutch theory.
Not one of my best, but still probably my most educational
