    CL find: '87 w/ M90B35 euro swap

    Hell of a deal, I talked with the owner and it seems to be a clean swap. The interior is shot, but you could put the motor in your early model and part the rest of the car and come out way ahead:



    some pics he sent me:

            ^ Seriously? Who the fuck do you think you are. I hope you know Corvallis and you're just busting his chops. Cause if you're just some random guy being a douche...

              This car has been on and off CL for over a year, i've talked to him before. "there was wiring problems between the two harnesses" no speedo, tach, heat, i think it pretty much came down to the car is fast fun and cheap but not that nice.

                oooohh I did not realize this. He said in the email that everything was in pretty good shape, but I didn't ask for any details. No instruments or heat is a big thing to not mention, but I should have guessed something was up when he only wants $2500 for it.

                  I am the R3V PNW e30 swap sheriff.
                  Therefore I have the right to "bust chops" on halfass m30-FAIL- swaps. now don't get me wrong m30 are some peoples cup-o-tea and can be done "nicely." *cough* alpina 25 years ago *cough* but lets be honest they suck when compared to a e30s52 swap. This is a case of is the worst of both worlds a sh*t motor, and the workmanship of a 17 year old who "tried" to swap in during his high school spring brake.
                  oh BTW when I got flamed for posting one of my swap up for sale its tack and speedo both worked

                    No one here gives a shit if you like the swap or not. If you like S52 swaps then go help people in the 24v thread.
                    And just because you got flamed once doesn't give you reason to be a flamer.

                        90% of the replies to this thread are from people who have been here longer than you. Hate is not the point of a forum. Lay off the mescal a bit?

                          Dude, fuck off. Flaming is not the point of a car forum. The point of a car forum is fucking cars. You don't like my post? Fine. Then STFU and stay out.
