I was thinking $15k range... By the time I'm thinking swap, s54 swaps SHOULD cost less than the price they are today...

Poor college student can dream, can't he..? :)
Thanks goodness for $100k starting 2 year program jobs..

Friend want this to me just now.. He has a Lagunaseca Blau e46 m3 named Antonia that's his babylove-child.. Made me lol.. HARD :D

It would make meeting up for some canyon rides way easier.. I'll bring my Ms Babe Antonia e46 m3 and you could bring Mr Scoots. She has a crush on him, and has made her subtle hints, but he's too much of a battle heated warrior with a scarred heart to really notice.. Alas! He would have too little time to think about her, and the many battles with canyons, potholes, and cops to fight would drain his energy.. He would be swamped by the lady e36s cause he's a boss, but would never like any of them in return cause he's not attracted to skeezies. Eventually, out of desperation and fear of losing him, Antonia would spill her emotions the day before e30 warrior received the news he would require an engine swap triple-bypass surgery because of a headgasket failure and internal bleeding of coolant. Out of pity an fear she would never find a guy good enough for her, cause she was le lady and would attract ricers and e36 m3 douches alike and e92 guys with all bling and no substance, he would enter a relationship with her for a couple months. Shortly after going steady, Antonia would eventually take e30 warrior's back seat as he would be prepped for the swap. As time went on and the warrior scared e30 would have his warm m20 multipurpose heart ripped out and replaced with a purpose built all-suit:no-shorts business hardened s54, she would see how brave and strong he was and love him even more because of his new found power and spiritual connection due to having the same engine, but alas, he would have finished his transformation into a track beast DD cyborg bent on destruction of track lap records worldwide incapable of emotions, and therefore incapable of loving her. Eventually.. After long years of waiting, nagging, and long drives together on the beach-roads, the cold forged s54 would begin to melt in the e30 warrior, and they would eventually get together again, get married, an have a e36 m3 as a kid. It would eventially flip and become succumb to the salvage yard because the e36 never listenned to e30 warrior and attempted to drift everywhere like a rebel without a cause. Shortly after this major enginebreak, Antonia would then have her poor little fuel pump broken again as the mechanic would inform her of her infertility after her last child. After 2 years of trying with no luck, e30 warrior's mind would e blown ad they would finally have an e30 m3 with 000000 on the odo and live happily ever after. The end

Most BMW engines have a standard 14mm spark plug thread. The HF tester I got covers 3 sizes anyway, so you can do 12mm motors like S54s, too.

looks like I need to get out my 20% off coupon and wait for my check to come in :rofl: which tester do you have kalim PN? or link?

Which one do you have? I guess the quick connect would be better since it only goes up to 300PSI which would be more accurate than the 1000 psi one :rofl:
