    Sounds funny but if you can build a cool looking valve cover for the M20 cheap, that would sell.
    I'm getting ready to pay $800. for a Hartge valve cover..
    this is stupid money.. for a fucking valve cover... and I'm going to pay it
    becacue there aint shit on the market for an M20...
    Build I nice cover for cheaper that the remanufactured covers from that cnc guy who will cut your name into your own cover, and everybody will buy them...
    There isn't a guy here with an M20 would want to make the motor look cooler... there not the best looking motors...
    No matter which you look at it, it won't be cheap. The cheapest option is casting it from aluminum, with the top surface milled down. Even then it's going to be 200+ dollars for them. Foundry, casting, milling, etc. Even china can't do it cheap enough for us.

    Ask me how I know :D

        1) e30 spindle hub/bearing sleeves to allow for e36 5 lug hubs to bolt on

        2)e36 caliper brackets adapters to allow for e36 brake upgrade without having to switch completly to e36 strut swap

        FRONT AND REAR would be nice to have as a kit

          You know what a LOT of people would be interested in?
          OBC and cluster fix for M50 Injectors on an M20, and M50/S50 motor swaps.

            ^+1

            I would be interested in:

            E30 325i dual midpipe without cat, but maybe with a resonator instead.
            Either as a package with headers, using stock headers, or made to fit some aftermarket stainless headers. Other end to connect to stock catback location.

            24v oil pan setup with more ground clearance - create a kickout to keep oil capacity the same. Not sure what a reasonable price would be for this.

            Gauge inserts for where the e30 MPG/L.100km gauge is. Whether it is oil pressure, boost, etc. would be very nice to have options. Supposedly someone used to do this. And hell, any oem-looking gauge setup would be cool, I hate A-pillar pods, and storage tray pods, and getting rid of an air duct looks bad too.

                  Do some searching, multiple people have done it. a cheap plug and play doesn't exist. sleeves need to be pressfit or welded on, and calipers need to be machined, unless you run huge brake rotors.

                    why is this not posted anywhere on here?!??!!?

                    The only reason I don't want to put in M50 injectors is because it will alter my cluster and OBC...

                    Uggg. WHAT THE SHIT! $90 for $12 worth of electrical parts...

                      I want your interior, but I guess that's not what you mean.

                            Everything listed in this entire thread, someone sells, and makes.

                            But thses are some i personally think would be affordable enough to make and sell. Go to your local racetrack and see what people are using for a dead pedal.. a peice of steel they whipped together from the scrap pile.. after all its just a pedal.

                            Caliper adapter brackets- for all- e36 m3, cobra pbr's, front and rear.
                            The affordable harness bar, but then again whats stopping the average person from whipping one up in 5 hrs shop time..
                            Steel oil pans for m20, m50
                            Rear sump e30 subframe
                            And more adjustment in the suspension, front and rear.. dtm style CAB's in particular.
                            M/s50 itb brackets to adapt motorcycle tb's
                            maybe an affordable e36 similar chassis x brace.
