      bleh, just a stock M20B25 with 100k less mileage of my old engine.

      damn near perfect compression & leakdown compared to my last with ~30% leakage.

              Free Engine + Time constraints = another M20

              I would like to do the S50, but i'd want to do 5-lug first.

              All funds henceforth are directed towards a different project anyways. :)

                      Ok, I gotta ask because I was dead set on putting on M3 bumpers a few months ago. How does the rear fit? I see the cracks in it, so obviously not great, but what all was involved in getting the sides to pull in?

                        The cracks are there because the one I'm using I got for free and it had some damage from a previous accident.

                        The rear requires some modification.
                        The front require a lot. I'm waiting on doing the front for this reason alone. Its about a 1.5" difference of width on each side.

                        Wing is good, obviously not mounted in that pic.
                        Had some issues painting it, but it doesnt concern me that much...

                            yes, but the m3 bumper isnt mounted.
                            and my paint was ruined when it was repainted, so I wont be posting them until after that is fixed.

                              For some reason, I think that's going to be an amazingly hot car. Even with the unpainted bumper, etc, I think it looks hot. I don't know why ethier.
                              The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.
