Why the hell did "jelly" catch on... Who started it and can I punch em in the throat?

[fsmtnbiker]

M3 might be totalled... Kiiiiinda want to do an E46 4-door with my S52 in it. Kinda.

Thoughts? Objections?

[Bishop]

Totalled wtf? What e46?

[fsmtnbiker]

Damage from the accident a couple weeks ago is worse than they originally thought. I'm still waiting to hear from the insurance company, but the body shop's estimate puts it at more than 70% of the car's value according to them.

Preferably a post-facelift 325/330i zsp/zhp... With a blown motor. And a good 6-speed. And a black interior.

[Bishop]

Huh..... That's crazy. Would you catch much flack for an s52 in an e46 though? I mean, at that point wouldn't it be fine to find like a 92 shell, swap everything over and kinda rebuild the e36 from the ground up?

[fsmtnbiker]

I thought about that, but it's really easy... And kinda boring. I like the E46 styling, and the chassis geometry is a little better too... Not to mention stiffness.

I dunno, we'll see. I've got plenty of waiting to do.

I object. E36 4 lyfe!!! How much would you be looking to pay out of pocket if you wanted to fix the 36?

95 E36 shell would be best, but the amount of work he'd have to do to swap everything over would be rather crazy.

Whatever you do, make sure you fight them down on the buyout price.

That SUCKS!! Sorry to hear man, fight them on the buyout price.

S54 + cage = track car status?











shameless: if it is totalled, dibs on AA Race and headers?

True R3V fashion

No, it'd be r3v fashion if I offered $2 shipped.

[downforce22]

swap it into the e30 m3 rolling shell for sale? oh nvm i think you already have an e30 m3

[blefevre]

Sucks about the car.

But really, part it out and just buy a E46 M3. Or a supercharged ZHP. I will buy the mirrors :)

[iamsam]

Chris, why would you put an E36 motor in an E46 non-M? Just buy an E46 M3! You aren't married (I think) so you aren't broke...

Also, sell me your S52 drivetrain.

[Bimmerman325i]

or, obd1 s52 goes in my car, you get s-fiddy.
