There a guy in Newton Mass that works for Dent Sport that has a Bimmermushi... BMW 318iS with a Mitshubushi DMS 2.0l Turbo from a Gallant or one of the other Diamond MotorSport cars. Eclipse what ever but it's fast and has big hp.

Damn for the price of an s50 swap, you can completely bastardize your car!!!! :D
Just playin' i wouldn't mind doing this if I had the change for it. There was a kid at UMBC (where I us to atend that was a huge nissan guy, but towards the end of my last semester he picked up an SCCA prepped 325is that he was building an SR20 for. Sounds like a hella fun car.Comment

Somebody in Tampa was going to put a SR20DET into a E30 or an E36..I forget..But he scrapped the project I think....In the newest superstreet theres a Signal 350Z with a SR20 in it...its ugly as hell.

sr20 is significantly cheaper than a s50. But who knows how much goes into actually getting the sr20 in. Overall if u just want power, sr20 could be a good route considering there's abundance of mods that can beef up that motor.Originally posted by Avus_325is~ Go Canucks Go! ~

Sport Compact Car had an article on a Miata with a sr20det under the hood..Now that is a crowded engine bay.
An SR powered E30 would be pretty sick, I would just be weary about having a Nissan engine and tranny in a BMW. Something about that just doesnt seem right.
If I had the money I would consider it though. It takes very little work to get a nice 250hp out of an SR. And with the weight of my 318is and 250hp, hot damn :P

I would have to borrow one of my friends jacked up Fords and back over that damn thing. I am very against using other engines in bimmersComment

Or you can boost the stock motor. A close friend of mine just put the twin turbo Greddy kit on his 2003 350Z. He's only running 5lbs for the time being since he wants to break everything in before he turns up the boost. Hasn't been dyno tuned or dynoed at all yet, but it's nasty fast and put about 2 car lengths on a C5 vette to about 60(was in down town on a main strip)Originally posted by RobComment

I was making the point that a heavy car with a relatively tiny motor would suck until boost comes on. and you'd have to boost the dick out of a sr20 to get a 350Z to be fastBEERTECH

Yes why would you remove Nissan's great V6 to put a baby anemic 4 banger. It just doesn't have the off boost Torque that the V6 does.Comment

to be Different. Not that it's the best idea, but hell, they will do it.
On the topic of a SR20DET E30, I'd rock one. Those are cool engines. And Bimmitsu or I forget his name has a 4g43 in his E30....they are good powerplants and people have been fucking with them for a long ass time. Maybe not as cool in my book as a turbo M20.......but still, cool.
Bastardize.....who cares. It's power.Comment

quote off the site
:roll:I want to buy my teenager a E30. Give me one reason why I shouldn't!
These cars are NOT toys! These cars are capable of pulling sub 9 sec ΒΌ miles, top speed approaching 200 Mph!!! 0-60 in the 4.5 to 5 sec, this is not a car for a kid...Think of it as a loaded weapon, do what you will, but choose carefully.Comment
