I wasn't asking.

[ohthejosh]

Neither was I Spence. I do not appreciate being spoken for. LOL

I has voice bro.

I did an oil change today. It was some nasty shit in there. Never seen my oil that sludgy before. It wasn't a lot but it was out of the norm for my car.

Contemplating a 2.7i build. Need to see the cost for it first. And maybe start stock piling.

I have a 2.7 bottom end that you can have on the cheap if you do consider it. It has like 170k on it. It is dirty, has sat for awhile. I do not beleve anyhting is wrong with it.

I am using the head on my 'es' right now.

That's awesome. Truly a beautiful car, the e28 m5.
Euro bumpers would help, but honestly, I've grown to like certain USDM bumpers,
like the one on my Peugeot - decided to stay true and go original showroom spec.

Am I the only one who thinks e28's are kinda average looking (not directed to hate on your M5 drummerchubbs)? Honestly e30's are my favorite BMWs made before the e46.

[Bimmerman325i]

Aside from the M5, yea, not a fan of them.

Probably because I grew up with one.

I was just gonna use my own bottom end and gather all the i parts.

This thread is so comprehensive it makes it looks so damn easy;

Ahh gotcha, makes sense. I figured you were going to do everything on the side then drop the motor in at one time. that would just create little downtime for your car.

I like euro e28s. They are tits.

I feel like e30s whether m3, euro, late, or early model has a sporty look to it. Whereas all other models were made to look classy especially the euro models.

Euro e21 and euro e28 are some classy looking cars when everything is properly put together.

Yea but I have the e90 to get me around if the e30 ever has issues. I believe with all parts collected, prepped, and ready for install, it should not take more than 1 week. Maybe more if extensive troubleshooting is needed.
