That is bonkers! Color reminds me of the car that got me into cars.....a 1978 911 SC that my old man once owned. Much respect for going metallic brown!

What kind of power is that m60 putting down?

info on this:


side marker delete?

Look closer...the side marker is still there. Looks to be a tinted side marker. If you want the marker completely gone look into euro trim.

Car looks great! In for interior shots...

Amazing build.

So a few random questions - cause I've been to swamped to read all the m6x threads....but I plan to - I think this might be the next swap for me in a few years. I love-love-love my m30....but...

- don't they sell a supercharger for the m6x. Is there room for that on an e30 (I know it's like 6k for the kit or something(?))

- If you had to do it over again, what motor would you buy? Out of what model?

- Why aren't more people doing the hydro brake boost from an e28/e24/e32? Still not enough room?

- could you recommend to attempt this swap without a few years welding experience?

Subbed for future inspiration. That's a beauty.
