          Over a GM V8? Why pay more for less performance?

            Werd. Don't argue, dozyproductions.

            Hilljack and Bowtie power go together like PB&J.

                        1. Get E30.
                        2. Start build thread.
                        3. ?????????
                        4. No Profit.

                        Go E30 or go home.

                          exactly what I was thinking

                          stock E46 wheels look good/sleeperish too

                            The Ducati 848 is 2nd best bike I've ever ridden, behind only a 1098. If you like bikes, you simply cannot NOT love Ducs. And as fun as cars are, you and I both know that the thrill of pushing a bike through a nice set of twisties is 10x as rewarding as doing it in a car :)

                              prefer the sound? i'm all for stuffing LS engines into anything that has four wheels, but you can't argue against the aesthetics of a proper S52 swap into any BMW.


                              same reasons apply for why a lexus swapper might go for a 2JZ or an old rx2 might be better graced by a 13B or a 240sx owner would want an RB26... it sounds, looks, and feels proper.



                              i vote for 600cc bike, trailer, and lots of track days
