Ok, i read a little through the site, looking for engine swaps etc. I couldnt find anything explaining what engines are which, what cars they came from or what kind of power each engine has, mods, etc.
to be honest, I dont know really anything about bmws. I was browsing the sight and a e30 two door seems like a nice car. I am planning on buying a car in the near future, and was woundering about different engine swaps, and mods such as turbos etc for each engine. i do have mechanical abilities, lots of time, and a good set of tools so a swap isnt out of the question (though the costs might be).
first of all, wtf is the m50. i know its an inline 6 engine and it seems to be very common. did this engine come out of the early m3s? thats what ive come up with on that. also, how much power is this engine, and can you turbo it? also, ive seen the ITBs deal with one of the i6 engines too and it seems good but expensive.
what im looking for in these cars, is simply a budget track/street car. very low budget, over a longer period of time. was woundering what are the best engine swaps etc. the reason i posted in generic not engine swaps is because frankly im not sure which engine im looking for...and also, im not just worried about the engine swap, but mods to go with it. seems the i6 engines from the m3s swapped into a e30 chassis would be the best? i have no clue on prices for anythign either.
thankyou for your time, if this thread is worthless, delete it by all means, just trying to get it strait.
