hey everyone! a awhile ago i told all of you i was planning on swapping sr20det in a my e36. Im sorry it took so long, money is always a issue when building stuff! Well im happy to tell you im am starting the swap! As you all know swapping engines from other makes is fairly difficult and i will be posting pictures up through out the process of the build. I hope you enjoy following me though this interesting and fun build. Let fun the begin!
Of course when swapping the engine out of the car you have to remove the original engine and trans which is shown below. ( i removed the trans before i removed the engine to make things easier).




I received the engine and trans yesterday!!! all nice and clean got a great deal on it its a s13 black top with only 38000 miles on it!

hmmm now the really interesting part... making this thing fit? o_O ha thats what she said... anywho stay tuned and the build will continue, i have a truck load of parts coming in and im currently working on the engine mounts tranny mounts and what im going to do about the prop shaft

Its funny how in less than two months people on this forum have associated floridians with being idiots.. You live where you live, you do what you do, haters gonna hate, etc. The stereotype of california is that everyone drives a prius, but the majority of people who drive "illegal" "gross polluting" sr-swapped cars on this forum live here. I bet if broadfield were to put a sr in a bmw no one would mind...

I don't understand why you want an SR in a BMW? Dont these cars come with a V6 or something already? Why put a 2.0t in it? I mean do what you want I just don't see the sense in it.

Crondy

well this is awesome.

comablack783

exactly, Idiots are coast to coast, they are not just local to FL. I think the tards who started this rag on Florida campaign are just hating because we do not have to pop our hoods or pass emissions..

OP, I like where this is going, are you going to try and retain factory instrument cluster or using the nissan one?

inline 6 or 4...look all over this site ull c alot of swaps u wont agree on, but imo i likes it, im not a fan of sr but i am a fan of a different swap/build...also bmw parts are expensive as shit compared TO AN SR...glwb

OzzYNMotioN

yea the reason im doing the swap is to do something different, but the e36 came with a the m42 which is the 1.8L with maybe 90whp ha.

at least i have some supporters!

OzzYNMotioN

ok while i am waiting for parts, such i decided to get some other stuff done. sense this car is going to be drift car so i decided to start stripping the interior and getting rid off all the unnecessary access weight.



and the end result!!!!(ignore the radiator idk why that's in there o_O)


sense i had more time on my hand i also started stripping unneeded wiring, and ran some conduit to making it look more organized


I just received my top mount turbo manifold.the reason i had to go top mount was with the stock SR bottom turbo mount was to bulky and when test fitting the motor the stock turbo set up hit the steering rack. So going to top mount avoids the steering rack to make the car steerable. also i had a godspeed wast gate laying around so i installed that with a 11 pound spring to start with.


this is all i have for now ... but im currently working on the the engine and tranny mounts so i should have those done very soon.
so stay tuned!

OzzYNMotioN

Build Threads
Almost everyone enjoys building their cars and sharing that experience, as well as checking out others' builds for inspiration. Sadly, far too many users have a tendency to do half-hearted builds and either rarely update or update with trivial progress. In the interest of keeping the Chat forum clear of three hundred 'Install SR, ziptie aero, rattlecan paint' threads, incomplete, or in-progress build threads are not allowed. If you have completed your build, wrangle all those pictures into a post and tell us about it, but make sure the build is finalized. If you insist on having an in-progress build, Premium members have a specialized subforum for that specific purpose.

OzzYNMotioN

and where is said build thread??

Metal Angel

Even if it had been the 2.8l I6, that thing only makes like 190hp so he is upgrading to a better engine. I think it's cool. E36's have a cool look, and the SR is a cool motor.

OzzYNMotioN

thanksim glad you find the build interesting, but according to ping its going to get lock out, but ill keep updating untill that happens

s14unimog

Don't you think BMW 320T would make more sense than SR36? Either the case, cool idea but definitely wrong section.

This is an S-chassis forum not an SR20 forum.
