New e30 1988 325 zinnoberrot MOTOR QUESTION

[InuFaye]

part it out and set the shell on fire.

That POS isin't worth saving.

[jute91]

well in that case, send it to me ^ :D

[slammin.e28]

Buy it, yank that fucker out and slam a good engine in there. Good time to roll in a 24v or M30B35.

Me being me, I'd slap it together and see if it ran. If it doesn't, you have like new spare parts for your other e30.

Not sure what pics you're looking at, but I see worn out fronts, and a rear seat that was recovered by a 6 y/o blind kid with plastic????????



I would plan on a headgasket at the minimum too, and be surprised and ver happy if just the water pump is the problem

Hahaha. The Interior is near perfect! It was raining and dark = bad pic. But my eyes still work fine :)

The oil and stuff was good! It's like the oil is brand new! Not even close to dark/black

I'll try with my radiator and I'll try a water pump..

Thinking about a m50 motor swap! Any tips?

[jute91]

google is fastest way to know.. :D thats where i find everything

[Norwegian]

Why are y'all hatin?? It's A e30 that needs a little bit of loving!!
Are you for real when you guys are saying don't bother with the car and just let it sit there and rot??? I am willing to spend a little bit of my time to give this car a little bit of TLC!

Shame one y'all if you wanna se this car get crushed...

Spend a couple hundred and pick up a new project! Worst case you can part it.

It probably needs an oil pan gasket and possibly tranny too, check the tranny seals.

i talked more with the guy, and he said the women drove it hot.. and the car stoped driving. that can be alot of things.... worse case i do a engine swap! :drink:

[tcvd]

500 realistically max 6 its vert so you can pb swap and the body looks clean as hell

[tcvd]

But ide buy that forsures

[Norwegian]

body is clean and the interior is awesome to!!

thinking about a m50 swap.. but i don¨t know if i'm up for it yet.. swapping it with another m20 is a peace of cake i guess :)

[vert_this]

I'd just drop another m20 in it if necessary. I'd focus more on getting rid of that automatic transmission for a manual. The M50 is more work that its worth unless you later plan to hop it up. Its much easier and cheaper to just drop a m20, spend the money on the manual swap. IMO

or if you just want to spend a bunch of money than in that case put an s50 or s52 down in it.

i like you dude me and you have the same idea!! :) i think the m50 is to much work for me.. and yes the m20 is cheaper.. and YES a manual swap instead would be awesome! less work and less money i guess!? :)
