M30 vs S50 swap question

[BTP325ic]

Any s50s in the socal area want to race?
You must have a 2.93 rear end though!

70mph in 2nd ft w/L?

LOL2.93

and go M30!!!!!!!!

[Erick]

Well, Luis has an S52 and I have an M30. It's clear he's a lot faster, even though his gearing is MUCH shorter than mine.

But in the end, my swap was free :) The 535iS I bought was $300, of which I made my money back almost on the diff alone.

I still have the Mtech spoiler off it too. Debating whether to put it on the 318iS or sell it.

shit were did you get your e28 from for that price was it running?

[Erick]

Yeah it was running... barely. The chassis was completely messed up. Nothing worked in the car. It was pretty terrible. The only thing that worked was that the motor fired right up and drove forward great.

There were zero brakes. A shot power steering rack with tires missing chunks off the sidewalls. Hood didn't open, shifter was broken at the pivot (had about an inch of leverage to shift). Ebrake didnt work. No lights.

Pure f*cking nightmare.

BALLS well the M30 would be a hell of a lot cheaper i want to find a done car tho i think that why the guy i know car is not running PNP sold him a bad motor.

I'm sure you guys have seen this one, my B34 against a stock 335i from a 20 roll. Wheel spin owns me but not for long I love the sound of it..!!!! S5x guys you down to run against a stock B34 with some boost..????

[Lurker27]

S5x is clearly much faster stock for stock...but with an extra 3k to play with....:evilgrin:

[Erick]

Seriously. All the money you guys spend in putting your S52 in, the M30 will be stupid silly fast. :D

Otis, I need a ride on that M30!!! :D

[BTP325ic]

i am doing M30 swap fuck it. thanks ERICK :)

[RickSloan]

exactly for the price of an s5x swap you can throw a tcd turbo kit on an m30 swapped e30 and rape a s5x swap car...

m30ftw!

im only saying tcd cause there is an actual price an HP rating that goes with that for comparison. As far as im concerned with boost, home brew is the way to go!

otis sick sick video by the way. The wheel spin makes me laugh, what are you running out back?
