lol thats being debated in another thread, but no i love my none power steering and i kinda have popeye arms

and yes it has been beaten to death and usual i just tell newbs to check the thread where the wieghts were finally confirmed but i was bored tonight and thought i would start shit.

anyway you are a happily swapped guy and i am a happily swapped guy, your car is prob a little faster then mine and i respect that. can we be friends?

Hahah yeah. I road in a m30 swap car not to long ago and it was just as fun as my car. It all depends on what road you want to go.

i really need to ride in an s50 car, a friend of mine did the swap and is now selling the car. i need to take it out for a drive before he gets rid of it.

$4000 btw for anyone interested

You need E32 or E34 pan.

[5ickride]

You need E32 or E34 pan.

would this also be an issue with an S5X/M5X? thanks

M5X/S5X needs an e34 pan.

Did not read the whole thread so excuse anything being restated:

Swapping any engine into an ix (assuming by your sn) is down right stupid. The transfer case and front axles will not handle any more significant power than what a m20 puts out.

I have a m30b35 in my e30 and recently went for a ride in a s52 powered e30, the s52 felt way faster.

m50 swap is out of the question for me. There is NO point in spending that much money/time on the swap. Sure you'll have a few more hp, quieter and better looking but is that worth it?
