Blunttech / Classic Daily S85 V10 E30 M3 Swap

[e304me]

Aw man i want someone to do the s65 v8 from the m3

Parts are showing up for the Blunttech S85 Build.

Fortune Auto Coilovers are here.



The goal for this car is to have a fairly quiet exhaust system. So we are looking to the OEM world. This is a take off exhaust from a Dodge Viper. Before the resonators there will be a cross over pipe....oh yeah and electric cutouts.

^On point.

Didn't someone else do this, and the engine was so big that they had to cut the car apart to make it wider?

Pretty sure you're thinking of the E63 that was panelled to look like an E30.

The one being thought of was cut up to fit late model front and rear subframes IIRC.

The silver M3 with E90 subframes was only widened to fit meaty rubber.

Correct. I am fairly certain (without looking it up) that the car was not widened or stretched.

In because I must see this take shape. I really hope to witness this beast in person some day, at a gathering or something.

M3 E30 with S85

Sure it has been done before but this will be Jake's take on it and will likely differ a bit.

I'm pretty sure there an e30 overseas with the same transplant but I don't know the logistics of it.

[JRKOUPE]

Its really just Jake with Steves checkbook. All Jake skills though. Ill be flying in once or twice to do some of the lighter stuff but Jakes skills far outweigh mine.

tru dat...but it takes some kinda skill to have a proper check book.....and you sir appear to have such skill.........go BLUNT!!!!!

[our guile]

This is gonna be ridiculous. And by that I mean awesome.

sheesh......Jake and Steve strike again......Im in.

This might be doable....maybe in the slightly warmer months. Or have a winter time open garage....well closed with the heat on but....
