          Why on earth did you put an rb20de auto in there? They are totally gutless, but at least you can swap an rb20det in there easy!

          Sorry to sound negative, cars looks good tho! what sides skirts have you got?

                    Not usually. I think there were some italian e21 320is that had S14s or something along that line.

                      320i's are normal pieces of slow crap with shitty 2l 6's and usually autotragics.

                      The 320is is basically the Italian/Portuguese m3. Standard body with a destroked s14. Was built so they could compete in one of the touring car series there or something.

                        No it was the Italian E30 320is that had the S14B20 motor.

                          Yep. And I believe that the destroked motor was designed to put the car in a lower insurance bracket. Apparently cars with more than 2 liters were that much more to insure.

                          I think I read that in a European BMW specific magazine a while back.

                            previous owner swap it to RB20DE auto...now i want to swap to manual RB20DET...

                            my 1st plan is to swap to M20B25 turbo...but M20 is hard to find here...lot of japanese halfcut here...so i decide to turbo'd the RB20de...

                            now my power with RB20DE feels like E30 with M50B20...about same bhp...155bhp...tires just spinning in 1st gear..
