I wouldn't have the motor for a while, probably early/mid January, but would any r3v guys be willing to lend a hand here and there to do a swap?
      i would like to but salinas is far from the east bay... it used to take me about 2 hours to get to my army unit at fort ord, and that was when i lived in san jose.

      have you seen the e30dohc wiki? http://e30dohc-swap.wikia.com/wiki/E30DOHC_Swap_Wikia#

      none of that looks unmanageable, and it's actually easier for the two of us since we're starting with M42 cars.

      good luck man.

        I would actually be doing the swap at my friends house in Chico, which is still just as far away but I understand, yeah I've looked through all of that!

          i bought my set before they went up. and my tires cost more than the tails did. but mine are cracked too.

          speaking of crazy waste of money. B caps cost me $300 and 11 month wait. now i have to get my stupid wheels re-trued, welded, and fully refinished. but ya, that will wait until i have a job again.

            Thought I'd share this with all of you! My co-worker showed me this earlier.

                sup fam, almost bought a $300 e36 last night.

                94 325is, auto, appearance is beat to shit, no headlights, missing sunroof, engine runs very sound but P/S pump/pulley makes terrible banshee noises.

                would be worth it alone for the m50 and the diff, if I had a place to part it, but I was looking for one to keep, make manual, strip down to next to nothing and have fun in.


                Cheap AF but idk. merp.

                      I believe he may be referring to the borbet b center caps not bottlecaps.

                      But then again we cant really overlook it being bottlecaps lol.
                      SO MUCH MORE TO DO!!

                          But Eric is baller status, so dropping 3 stacks on some the bottlecaps is not completely out of the realm of possibility is all im sayin LOL

                          But yea most definitely its le borbet

                                It is cold AF lately. And the contractors painted over the living room heat vent, so I can't close the shutter and direct heat to the bedroom. Idiots.

                                Oliver, how can I get that shit unstuck? Acetone?
