Riding on the coat tails of the Finale Video, I figure we'd have a bit of fun with the N54 E30 in this episode and talk about WHY N54 is so COOL! While this certainly won't be the last episode about this car, it certainly is my FAVORITE!
ENJOY

I love these engines, and thankfully they are plentiful. I put the upgraded 9 blade turbines/billet compressors on mine (no machining the housing). Running 16psi and it pulls all the way to redline now. So enjoyable to drive. I couldn't imagine it over 500hp like some people do, which is okay, just not my taste. If I remember correctly, BMW designed the engine to mimic a V8, which is also why they didn't get boost gauges I think.

I'm really liking this swap for my 91. Thankfully I live so close to kassel performance. I've painted 80% of the building inside and out. Yes that awesome dyno room paint scheme was me : ) 😃 Matt and Jim owe me a sweet build like this haha.

Amazing what you do Frank, and frankly (pun intended) Id love to see you keep up with these videos. I have an e46 330ci, which will someday see the track but Ive been doing some research on what I can do to liven up the m54b30 but it seems that reliability and long term there isint any good or cost effective options as its a daily for now. I would absolutely love if you could do a build with the e46 chassis as I believe it would be great and now im considering it more and more. Only major problems I see are the electronics, rear subframe and the transmission. I have someone I know who I will be getting a helical style lsd so that should cover the extra fun portion of the e46 but that more or less the research ive done and im sure there's tons more out there. If I was to have an n54 build id probably have a reliable 400whp to 500whp build that I would be able to track as much as I want to and not have to worry about anything but for it to most likely be a street car with insane potential and track-ability. Maybe you could kind of make my dream come true with a near future build in a similar style so I could follow in your foot steps once ive gotten enough money and out of college. Cheers m8 for all the wonderful and hard work you put into this amazing channel!

@Garageaholic
@Garageaholic Жыл бұрын
It all depends! What resources do you have. what are you fabricating as opposed to buying? what is your swap chassis, do you have an N54? You're looking at 8-15k if you already have the car. 1/2 of that is the drivetrain alone. Need a custom driveshaft which drives up cost a bit too

Hi Frank. Really impressive. I admire you. Have you looked into a crank seal plate/serpentine gaurd? Also i plan on doing this swap to my e36. Will probably take me 10 years but I hope to achieve what you have done. Ps have you considered doing a N54 with DTC swap into a classic?

Wow! Subscribed to see if you would make one e30 with a n46 or a b48. I want a e30 with a modern 4 banger( i know about that k swap package but, it'll cost a fortune thanks to our retarded customs). There was a b47 swapped e30 in poland but i couldnt find anything other than some photos and a dyno video. Everyone tells me wiring/ecu part will be near impossible :/ gonna check this series just to see if there are some similarities between a potential n46 swap and this. Anyways thanks for the good content, cheers

Just remember buddy - the more HP you push, the more failure modes are likely to be induced. There's a healthy balance between power and reliability.
