    My M30 conversion completed

    Hi

    My project car recently completed. It took me almost a year to get to the way I want it to be. I would like to thanks this great web site and every member here for lots of helpful information.


    Again thank you,
    Shin

        Where are you located? Noticed the RHD, wasn't sure if you were one of the rare stateside-RHD owners.

        What engine position did you use? What parts did you fabricate, and which did you buy?

        I'm slowly convincing myself that this may be a more efficient and economical swap than an M50.

            :rofl: Just because you're on swap number....two...doesn't mean it's cheaper.

            I just don't feel like the gains merited from a stock M50 swap are enough for the money and trouble. I'm currently reading more though, so bear with me ;)

              That is the nicest fucking interior I have seen yet.

              As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
              You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

                I do love that swap. And my lord, that interior... those wheels... the whole car, unbelieveable. That is one perfect car right there. Fantastic work.

                  Very nice !

                  Like Bimmerfanatik said some more info/pics would be great, especially about that cooling fan set up.

                        now that you've all seen his swap.

                        somebody should stop by my house and pickup my M30, only fifty bucks!

                        hehe sorry about the thread jack, that is a VERY CLEAN swap!

                          One of the nicest swaps I've seen. What engine position is that?
