Vložit
- čas přidán 27. 07. 2024
- This is part two of the manual swap on the E30. We will show you how to install a manual transmission, as well as show you the steps involved in installing clutch pedal and other required components needed for a manual transmission to work.
This process is shown using an E30 as an example, however many other vehicles will be similar and this video can be used as education/guidance to understanding the process required for the swap.
Good Luck on your projects and happy wrenching!

Guys, you are the reason I bought my BMW. Good to see you back!
wow, never stop make videos about e30s man. im learning so much from it! keep up the GREAT work.
Welcome back. Keep making videos [please]
Any tips on the wiring for bypassing the neutral safety? Didn’t really get to see it in the video
Awesome seeing content again, great video guys!
Glad to see you back
I know you’ve done it before but you should do an engine swap video, if you still have the old one than upload it, if you don’t, for future please make one.
New Engine swap videos will be coming back. Stay tuned
PART 2 PART 2 YEAH-YEAH-YEAH !!! Keep it up BOYS !(:
So glad to see you’re back.
Loved it! Hope you guys are gonna keep the content rolling with some future projects like this!
Awesome to see you guys putting out videos again!
Great to see your back Nico! And welcome Matt. What happened to the rally build?
You're back!!!! I've missed you!
Good work! Glad to see more content!
Congrats on another job well done!!
The video I was waiting for years! Great!
Nice how-to guys. Can you share a guide to the wiring mods please... which colours to jump for the Neutral safety switch and the reverse light wires? I’ve read conflicting accounts of wiring mods needed for the cruise control which needs to not redline the engine when clutching. Interested to know if this was addressed on your car? Thanks
Loving your videos!! Keep it up!
Could you guys explain how to do the wiring in more detail, which wires to jump and connect?
Really good video and the first part too!! Now I want to swap my A/T E30
Good vibes From Costa Rica!!
Keep it up brother!
Great video guys....had the swap done but did not know all the ins and outs involved.....had to buy two different year drive shafts to fit the 87 manual trans which we installed on my 91 325i...
So stoked to see you guys bringing some tasty E30 content again!
Can you link that dope magnetic flashlight?
Awesome video! Mat is a awesome dude and great addition to the channel!
Thank you Austin, I can tell you, Mat shed a tear over this comment...you made his day. - Nico
keep it up guys! thanks for sharing!
That was awesome. Thank you
Another very good video!
Glad to have you guys back with new content. I was wondering about the old transmission cooling lines from the automatic trans, are those still there and just left there or do those get removed? Sorry if you covered this in the videos I must have missed it. Welcome back and keep the awesome content coming
I LOVE YOU NICO
OH MY GOD SALT CITY EUROSSSSSSS YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Awesome video, i like mat hey´s a cool guy, more videos with him would be nice. hope you got some plans for you and us for the future.
Wenn du wirklich einen e36 wie du mir gestern geschrieben hast fertig machen willst, fände ich das super. Macht weiter so !!!
Greetz from Germany
Any more vids? This was very interesting to watch
Dope!
Nice Work 😁🇩🇪 Grüße aus Deutschland ✌✌
the pedals have an exzenter screw to adjust the Clutch
Nice video
I think more important is wiring
Can you tell what colors you did ??
Awesome video! Did you guys remove the pedal switch that's behind the gas pedal on the Auto cars?
I can't seem to find anything about it online. Thanks!
Question I did my swap but used the stock pedal assembly without the help spring. I bled the system (still need to add a little fluid) but the clutch pedal is not returning. Is it because I need more fluid or I have to used the pedal assembly bracket from the donor car. Thanks for the help
Curious whatever happened to the E21 build? was that scrapped? completed? shelved? Anyways, great seeing content from you again!
@First Name Last Name Yeah I meant E21, fixed comment.
@@colinstu The E21 was shelved for now. I still have the shell, we just gotta figure out the priority list and come up with some good ideas for it. So yes, it is still around, it will be back, just not sure when.
@@SaltCityEuros Cool!
Random question but do you have the Getrag Transmission Part number??? I need to confirm fitment want to tripple check. You're a legend if you get back thank you so much. I Know its a getrag 260 but a getrag 260.0.1346.90 for late model and Getrag 260.0.1270.90 for early model until 06/1988 BTW Thanks for the awesome video on a manual swap.
Do you need a different brake reservoir for the fluid to go into?
You guys have a link to those magnetic folding led lights?
The manual boot / ring I got was too small for the automatic console hole. Does anyone know if they're different sizes? I'm not sure if they are different or I just have the wrong ring.
What wires did you connect to each other to get the reverse lights working ?
What about the new rear main seal
The video was so long already, we cut out the main seal and will post a short video next week showing the process. -Nico
Hey doing a manual swap on my e28 super eta I noticed you didn’t show if the spacer shim was behind or in front of the fly wheel 😅 smh And or I didn’t pay attention
Akgmotorsport shifter the best
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great video! Did you still do the rear main seal? Ore are you saving that for another video?
Rein van Mill yes the video was already so long we saved it for a short bonus clip we’re posting next week.
@@SaltCityEuros Okay, cool! Looking forward to seeing how you did it :)
Hey guys what gearbox are u guys on ? Is it a getrag 240
Have you got a diagram for the wiring please
Is it possible to do this swap on an 85 7series?
Missing content. Like the spring on the back of the clutch pedal and what wires to jump for the neutral switch then how different the orientation of the trans mount is. Currently trying to get a swap done in a 90 E30 and having issues with some of the finishing touches
Yeah sorry it’s really difficult to capture every single detail of a process. Hope you figure it out, Good luck!!!
@@SaltCityEuros main issues is the neutral switch wires to jump I can't figure out witch ones to connect
@@ghostofhobs try this, bottom of the page has some details on the wiring

@@SaltCityEuros thank you very much
How much did the whole thing cost?
Hi there guys. How did you manage to attach the clutch master to the automatic pedal bracket without the threaded tabs? Bolts and nuts? Did it hold firm and stay in right position? Just seems a bit off to do it that way 🤷🤷🤷
We used a manual pedal setup, brake pedal and clutch pedal.
@@SaltCityEuros @Salt City Euros I understand that but in your video you swapped the pedals from 5he manual bracket back to the auto bracket but there were no threaded tabs on that bracket... Time stamp: 18:15
@@quickvictor Right, my bad. Yes nuts and bolts. We switched brackets because it was an older style sensor connector and the bracket was slightly bent. Didn't feel like a biggie to use the nuts and bolts
@@SaltCityEuros I was assuming the master would play a bit as the open tabs are quite bigger than the bolts. Thanks for clarifying.
What happened to all the e30 wagon content?? It’s no longer on here.
Josh Key The Channel was wiped by google a couple years ago. Started it back up earlier this year and trying to make some new videos here and there when time allows
Tried to be the first one😂
do you have a part number on the hard line?
Part # 34326755555
@@SaltCityEuros Thank you very much
Forgot to ask...What kind of 'trouble' lights are those!!
wot?
@@SaltCityEuros Those magnetic LED lights you used under the car for seeing what the heck you're doing!
@@bkupkee that's Harbor Freight lights. Highly recommended! Cheers, Mat
What transmission is that?
Getrag 260
You got a link to it
