Is this legit?? Im about to order one of the OBDII--> OBDI conversion kits that Jilphan suggested....

[jrhaile]

I couldn't tell you, but I think it's all the parts that are needed pretty much... where is Jillipian!!!!

[NeverLeaned]

hell ya! there is a ~$1200 price difference.......

BTW>... if ya want it, let me know.... don't want to get in a bidding war with the person who deserves it more than i

[jrhaile]

You lost me? Do you think I want it? I own a 95 and thus no need to do a swap. I just posted it before I know people like to do this... btw, 1200 for 25 horse is crap

hehhehe, just making sure didn't check your sig.... nice ride BTW.........


and its $1400 for the conversion....

[jrhaile]

I don't know much about this conversion, but I would imagine you'd probably have to put another 2-300 into this kit with new o2 sensors and some other things, but maybe still worth it.. also I think you still need to do something with your software too.

When did bmw start putting in the OBDII in? in 96'?

[jllphan]

Sup, that looks like most of it. Like he said, there is no TPS, and it didn't look like you were getting the airbox. Didn't see a fuel pressure reg. either.


The beauty of the unit available from ZA is that the parts are new and complete. The fuel pressure reg. is one of the few parts that have to be relocated as there is no place for it to mount to the rail on the M52 cars. ZA knows this and provided for the relocation.

Deepending on how cheap it goes, IF everything is in good shape, it may be a good deal, as you could pick up the remaining missing parts and still come out cheap. Might be a hassle.

if you don't mind the extra work, and the auction goes for $500-$600, grab it. You'll save yourself a bunch of money.

As Jllphan said though, all of the parts are used though.

If it goes for $200-$250 would you say its a deal?

[wulley1]

hell ya, I've seen a lot of OBDI ECUs selling for $250. It would be a good project and well worth the money and the HP.

Are you going to do the swap yourself?

I would like to do the swap myself. Ive been working on cars and bikes for years now..... but a little unfamiliar with the ECU side of things.........

Could be an interesting project. 60mins to go, and the price still seems right

What I really need is to find some documentation on this conversion........ Im a little worried that Im going into it a little too blind. Im not afraid of purchasing the whole kit, still a little hung up on the price though....... the documentation that comes with the kit is worth its weight in gold to me

No matter, I got outbid
