Well, after years of lurking on numerous e30 boards, I am finally starting out on my project. I thought those of you here whom have gone through this process may appreciate the start on a motor swap.
Here's the details:
1997 Z3 M52 <90k (torn rear body mount for differential)
5-spd
1989 e30"is"
Been mostly stock during it's life with me over the past 10 years.
Dinan DME chip
Eibach springs
Bilstein HD's all 4 corners
HID retrofit
Z3 shifter
I love my e30, dunno why some days, but I just love it! I've had both the Z3 and the e30 out of commission for roughly 6 months or better. I'm not gettting any younger and I want my garage back! So here I go, diving in head first.
I want to say thanks to all of you who have posted informative information over the years here @ R3V. It has been an invaluable source of information (albeit, sometimes more entertaining at times!).
I'll post pics as the swap progresses along if there is interest. Any useful tips and help are always appreciated.
