      Thanks for the compliments, it was definitely not a low budget build. Sometimes you gotta spend the money to get the shit right...

                Great rebuild/restore/swap. I'm more of a purist when it comes to special vehicles like the E30 M3. I would have preferred to see a 2.5l S14 in there, but the S50 is nice too.

                    He's tracked down a chassis to build his "dream" E30 with. So he's making it happen.

                      Hard to imagine what you'd go to from a widebody E30 and euro B32... S38? Gnarly S14? S85? Or what?

                        Would have to be an S54 or S62?! :)

                          I suppose the S62 is the next step in the power game... there's not THAT much difference between an S50B32 and an S54 though, I'd be surprised if he went that route.

                            well i am gonna a lil bit of research on doing the v8. the s50b32 is an awesome engine in the e30 m3. but yes my dream build would be a v8 e30 m3. I would have to call apex engineering to see what they can do. I would love to have the new m3 v8 in my car... stay tuned for my future build.

                              Do another car with the S50B32. That is the best looking engine you could put in the engine bay hands-down. The S54/S62 don't compare. Of course the S38 looks great, but it's just not my cup-of-tea.

                                looks like I might do another euro swap. Its easy and you are right about the looks. Project pics coming soon.
