Lol. I haven't looked at this thread in forever. Simon, I will probably make a thread in the project forum soon about all of the changes to the car that have happened in the last 3 years. haha

Hahaha I read the whole thing and didn't realize it was that old until you commented that Nick.

Strange to bump a year and a half old thread. Oh well, I read it start to present. Some decent info in here I saved for my hopeful M50 swap later this year.

im still gathering parts and saving for maint. for the m50 while its out. im going to do front n rear main seals, oil pan, valve cover gaskets, water pump, thermostat, etc..

Very noticeable. I just got the thing legal on saturday. It took forever to get my exhaust all welded up. I had the 4.10 in it, drove it for a day. Then went out and got a 3.25. Way too high of gearing for my taste. I love it so far. Saving up for coilovers now!! How goes your swap? ^

what was the power difference from a m42 to m50 ?
