      i guess out there lol. Its the other way around over here. We never got those cool jdm engine's. But we got everything buy the s50b32(euro dual vanos ) engine.

      I think you should find a cheap'o m20 and build it. Might be cheaper on your part.

        yeh there are plenty of M20's but this is a good deal on the M50 I can't let go on this one. I will be doing a very long term build so money is not such a big factor.

              Maybe, but if I am going to have a choice of engines then I would go with a M60/62 I am only going for the M50 because it is there and it is cheap.

              I have looked at Peninsula BM webpage before, I needed a fan clutch for the M42 they quoted me $280 for a second hand jobby, that put me off as I bought a brand new one for like $80 shipped from pelican parts. Maybe ill have to give them a go again sometime.

              looking at there web page. This makes me sad.

                  Yeh maybe, I have used AVS Euro Car Parts a few times I can sometimes get stuff cheaper then what I get them in the states which is nice.

                  But on a whole yeh we suck for parts, I order directly from blunttech these days.

                      well E90 M3 is about $160,000, and M5 is about $250,000.

                      Good news pulled the engine for $300 yay, phone is fucking up though so pictures to come soon. So if anyone is insterested it was at the local U PULL IT very uncommon to find a M50 there so this was a great find.
