    I'm new

    I'm looking into buying a e30 but don't know much about them and I found one with a m50 already swapped but I wanna make the car run 11-12s in the quarter and still autocross and still deal with the hardship of daily driving. I hope you can give me great advise and also place me into great vendors for products

    To do all that you want it to do, you'll have to spend quite a bit of money. A car that fast can be accomplished with either the M20 or the M50, but you will need to use forced induction (not exactly snap your fingers and suddenly you're at 12 seconds).

    If budget is not an issue, then TCD has some pretty gnarly stuff.

      Your also gonna need a good suspension set-up and some good tires. It will take a lot of work but can be done. TCD stuff is pretty good from what I have seen.

              What's tcd? I'm looking I think I found one here in Germany like I stated prior as soon as I get back from the field I'm gonna take a look at it and possibly buy it. I know I'll have to go forced induction. Yes it's a budget build but I will save if the products are right for the car. Now who makes good suspension parts for this car? Like coilovers control arms etc...

                besides all the advice you get through asking right here, i would just search around the site and find someone with a turbo'd m20 or m50 and see what/how they did it. so it will give u a little more of an idea of what you're getting yourself into.
