Take the m30 out of that and put it in your other e30 haha

So you'll have the swap done before the picnic, right? ;)

Uhhhhh.

Traded for motor and swap stuff.



Got the tranny off, got the motor moved to the new place and on a engine stand. ECU came and doesn't have corrosion. iS skirts also arrived. Won't have those on for a while.

[lambo]

ugh... I need skirts.

Keep an eye out for a Dinan chip online... I think I picked one up for $60 second hand eBay :)

wow you put work in that car. You should show lambo how to do a build thread

thanks, you've been my largest inspiration. Lambo leaves everyone feeling dissatisfied, and i don't think i could change that about him, no matter how hard i try.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Started in on the breaking down of the s52. Got the engine harness, and valve cover off.

I'm trying to decide what to do. The spark plugs all looked good except for cylinder number 3, it had lots of oil around it. Looking down the spark plug holes I can see what looks like some pretty good carbon build up on the pistons. There isn't any build up on the back of the valves, and the intake is quite dirty.

I'm not sure if I pull the head and go through it and clean the pistons of carbon, or skip it for now. The engine has 160k.




All the intake ports look like this.



You can kinda see the oil down in cylinder 3, I'll try and get a better photo.



Valve train looks pretty good.

I'd pull the head to see what the bottom end looks like

Maybe if you remove the "m60" bit this sentence will work better.
