    m20 needed in SE PA

    Hey guys. A friend of mine snapped his timing belt about 30 minutes ago. Assuming massive damage, he may be looking for a motor. Car is an 84 eta, but he would be interested in any m20 as he is a mechanic and can swap the necessary parts. Let us know what you've got. TIA

        Maybe give s52e30m3 a PM. He's got a few e30 parts cars that will probably have what you need.

            Thanks for the responses guys! My aforementioned friend is looking at an '87 to replace the '84. He is still on the fence though, so I will let you know which way he decides to go. Good to know there is stuff available!

              Hey man... I got my old motor that just got ripped out for the dinan turbo motor. I can give him all he needs to turn that eta into an "i." Talk to Connell he rode in my car tons of times and will tell you that it was a very strong motor with 144K on the clock. It currently in Jersey where the swap is being done... but i can either pick it up and drop it off at your friends front door step... or he can go get it and i'll charge him less for it. Let me know... If he is willing to pick it up he can have it this weekend!!!

                  Man you guys are so awesome I almost wish it was my motor that broke! The R3V love makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. Dave, how is the project coming? I am stoked for you and would like to request a ride upon completion. Good turbo weather on the horizon :D ...

                  My buddy's dead car is sitting in the street next to my apartment... I think I'm going to steal his weaves. And again, if he doesn't buy another car, I will take someone up on their offer. Thanks again!

                    The project is nearing completion. Haha... i've been saying that for a little while now, but as of now the intercooler piping and intercooler mounting is all that is left. I went the water/air intercooler route... so i'm having two oil/water coolers mounted behind the brake ducts. You are def. welcome to come along for a ride when its all said and done.

                    As far as stealing his weaves go... if you are somewhat interested in getting another set of wheels, my ACS's are going to be up for sale. I just bought a set of BBS RM's and would like to recoupe some money. Let me know...

                      Actually I saw that thread about you getting another set of wheels. I am rolling on euroweaves and have a set of 14in baskets I want to do in black so that when everyone says it is gay I can switch back to silver haha. I was just thinking of putting his car on blocks since it has been sitting for a week. You should be able to sell the Schnitzer's no problem. You are going to need some good meat in the rear to get that power down!
