Looking forward to this!

Me too; it's fascinating to watch the engineering (and backwards engineering I suppose) that goes into conversions like this. I'm also interested to see the work that goes into the electronics side.

Watching with interest Often wondered what a Z4 with the V10 would be like, I know it's been done but if the OP is looking for another project after this one....

[xjay1337]

Yes!!! Should be a good build.

[aspirated]

Looking forward to this, shame there is no dual clutch gearbox option as that would be best imo

My thoughts exactly!

[Truckosaurus]

Excellent.

[Croutons]

Look on M3 cutters for "V10 Now" the plate of a converted one. Not sure if there's a build thread, but it has been done.

What happened to the touring idea??

[Amirhussain]

Ooh this sounds exciting

[dom9]

Nice one, Croutons - Reading this now (albeit e46): http://forums.m3cutters.co.uk/showthread.php?t=123...

[warsteiner///M3]

Not much to do then ! Lol

[xjay1337]

Very complex but you seem to have a good grasp on it and access to the data so I'm sure you'll be fine. Hopefully some major progress starts soon as this is one I want to see

Looking forward to your progress on this, especially regarding the electronics... i started making my chassis for mine last week, steering rack is one of the biggest obsticals for me as well I decided to move the engine back so the rack goes in front of the engine rather that under it lol

Every time I have the engine out the car Im stunned by the sheer size of the lump lol

[sagarich]

Fantastic, following with interest.

How long till you start the transplant

When I picked up my E63 in 2006 I had it delimited at Hartge in Beckingen. They had fitted a V10 into a 3 series and it was even modified to have a dipstick..apparently amazing performance at the time............
