        Next year I will be looking for a totaled e92 m3. The s65 is doable these days with APEX Speed Tech's standalone solution and tuning,

        S65 + e30 M3 = God Mode!

        If not then I'll be supercharging my s54 and running Race Logic traction control! :twisted:

        IMO the S50/2 and the M6X swap are the best options for the money for an e30. For big power I'd go m50 turbo, supercharged non-vanos m62 or LS1.

          I've looked for an S65, they are $12k+...unless you know I can find one cheaper. Already have the ECU to run it...

            I am leaning towards an s54 with standalone engine management atm. HPF is less than 2 hours away if I ever wanted to get really crazy with it. But I'm a year away from starting the project and have plenty of time to read and learn, so who knows where I'll end up.

                That's why I want to find a crashed e92 m3. I can part out the car and hopefully get the entire drive-train for less then $10k...

                  Copart cars seem to be unreasonable to part and get the motor cost down.

                    S85's are cheaper and more common on the ground than S65's - that would be my swap of choice!

                        I've been paying attention to the N20. Would be cool.

                          That would be going into my e34 touring if I come into a large amount of money.... :p

                          The s65 is worht the wait for me! It's around the same weight as an s54, sits around 4-5" further behind the nose, is a rev happy engine, makes more then enough power for an e30 m3, and with the right headers and exhaust, makes some amazing noises!
