e46 m3 to e46 body swap

[GunMetalGrey]

What about EWS? 
It also leaves tuning.

No offense to Jay but I wouldn't refer to a standalone as easy for the op.  He just asked if it was like a Honda swap.

[Jay]

Can't I just swap all the wires and the dashboard? And computer and all that stuff easy?

[jc43089]

You have no idea how many wires are in the dashboard.  My obd1 e36 body harness fills 2 5 gal buckets.  Not to mention the newer ones have canbus type communication between different computers which need to be programmed rather than just splicing some wires.

I'm just saying for ease, just go standalone.

You don't need to mess with canbus and all that jaz.

Look into e46 lsx swap wiring. They have it figured out for sure.

You can buy a pnp unit and anyone can tune it. I bet jay could accomplish it.

Jay does not work on his own cars. He uses a trusted shop to do the work he needs done

[Bassboy3313]

Shouldn't jay be asking his trusted shop these questions then?

[Earl]

Now that's a thought

[Jay]

I know ppl who do Honda swaps out the shop just wondering how difficult would be

[Earl]

About 50 times harder

[Rowleym]

Hey the only harder part is wiring in the Ecu and there is plenty of material online to figure it out.

Bmws wiring is normally pretty nice for swaps. And the e46 is pretty well documented.

I can't wait to build one some day.
