    5.3 vortec? auto trans or manual? you do know a used t56 goes for like 2k easy, 1k for a busted one right? T56 is more expensive than any the engine.

    why do you have so many fucking cars, just build one up proper and enjoy it then sell your sloppy seconds.

    Your buying shit left and right. Get your m20 running

    now you got a e30 doesnt run that has a m20
    another e30 m50 swap aka "being a bitch"
    5.3 vortec "awesome deal"
    stupid eta motor

    trying to run a junkyard?

    not trying to bash but your all over the place
    just take it easy a build a proper e30 with time and patience

    anyways good stuff
    Lol yeah i know the T56 are expensive... i gave up that for the time being i never picked up the LM7 vortec motor

    The one dedicated to this build was completely parted and gone, the M50 car i got because i really needed a car and ran and drove and motor blew, im guessing from all the abuse as a track car. but the M50 car is being parted and scrapped..

    Now for the new blue ETA car that is getting its regular maintenance, putting on the full suspension (swaybars/coils/mounts/bushings) from the black m50 car and calling it a day until i move out and am stable enough to build it all crazy and what not

    But thanks bud, i do miss the M20 i built :/ ill build another one day...

    Hey guys so i havent updated in a while and left everyone hanging...

    Unfortunately i never got the motor running, the chassy harness, and engine harness were completely ruined and the fuse box was melted in half.

    I ended up trading the motor for an 87 M50 swapped and parted out the shell and junked it.

    Dont worry, ill have that motor back one day and when i do.... this thread will be back up top every day!!!! and thanks for all the love guys, i spent ALOT of time and money on that car

    This is the single best thread on R3v (and I'm not being sarcastic at all). I just spent an hour reading all 13 pages watching your build and I can't wait to see the finished project!

    Subscribing to this thread and waiting for more awesomeness....
