    '89 324td

    E30 3.0 Turbo Diesel Project
    http://www.e30m57.blogspot.com


    7j 15 inch et13 RH rims
    original exhaust
    mtec 2 heckspoiler
    a crazydriver
    a smart mechanic
    And the engine from hell





    The idea is to put a m57 engine (3.0 diesel) and tune it to 250/280hp

    What i have:
    e36 coilovers
    5/120 16inch 8j et10 rh rims like my 15inch in the pic
    e36 compact rear trailing arms 272X10 discs
    e36 front nuckles 286X22 ventilated discs
    complete e39 530d for parts
    25% LSD typ 210 for the big case 530d diff 2,32 output
    325ix fender flares and side skirts
    mtech2 front fiberglass bumper
    big intercooler

    Right now i am taking care of the 5lug swap, rear is easy but the front needs 96/99 control arms and they are hard to find!

      There is a guy pushing 180 hp and something like 400 nm out of one of these.

          Whoa! That is some poke. I don't know how much that can be remedied with rolling and stretching. Should be a cool project. You don't see to many diesel E30s.

              Sweet project dude :up:


              I really wish the Americas had gotten more of the BMW diesels...
              I wanted to do an m21 swap but its hard to justify spending the money on it w/ so little payoff performance wise....but an m57, thats gina to be fun, I envy you.

                Best e30 engine swap ever. Take it a step further and install a heated veg oil tank and make taco shell smell while hauling ass.

                  m57 can´t use vege oil, but the m51 is a very powerful idi engine good for that

                  Original 5 series e39 rims 7j 16 et20
                  i really thougth those would easally fit

                  now it's 4.5cm off the fender
                  i will now be looking for original discs and hubs that i can fit to the front to bring the wheel back to the inside
