Looking good man, I actually took my first ride in a m50 swapped e30 and it was epic compared to my eta lol

Man, I gave up after a summer. Maybe if I had waited a little longer, I could have bought a 24V too . :(

Needs more low and more wide. However, I'm sure you'll be on it in no time. Nice car.

I honestly would have completly done the swap if I had the time and money. But this deal came up and i couldnt pass it by. Car is no where near finished in my books, car really isnt "mine" yet.


But really, who here worked in germany at a BMW factory making e30's back in 89?

I guess we all bought ours didnt we.

That is perhaps the dumbest rationalization I've ever heard......

Bottom line is it is almost always cheaper to buy a swap car than build one. you can tweak it and make it your own. Ive built a ton of cars and lose my ass on everyone because i put too much into them. Its perhaps not as fun but financially it makes more sense in most cases

I know that Dude can put an M50 in his E30 without a doubt.
But if he found one that's already done for him, saving him $2000 or perhaps more, and a bunch of hours, then why the fuck not? It's not even finished yet either.
