Originally posted by EN318isPDX View PostI picked up a used block for 300$, the head isn't special, only the cams and valve train. Pistons on S52 should be replaced with forged ones because OEM rings are 800$ and Forged Pistons are 1000$. The rods are the same as the M52B28. Only thing you really need is the crank. Sorry to hear about your misfortune
One of my friends is hopefully hooking me up with a s50 head and m50 block. I'm just going to bore the m50 out to a 3.0l and all will be good.- S50 Swapped E30 1/1 Mineral White -@vaughnbannister on IG

I'm kinda in the same boat, I've loved the e46m since like 04 ish back when I was like 10 and they're really getting cheap. I'm gonna put that roof on my e30 And will need something to drive so I'm thinking I'll get this 36m and then in like a year sell that to get into a 46 once I'm making better money and have cleared school and stuff. I'd go right to a 46 but want a bit cheaper car for now... E36m seems like a decent compromise, and it's a vert, gotta have at least one vert in life!-Christian

Portland peeps! I'm driving down to Ptown tomorrow for work and know some of you have parts you're dying to sell. Thought I'd see if anyone has anything I need. Short list, will have cash with me.
Nice e30 sport seats in anything other than tan, will trade my refreshed tan suede seats for a good set.
Mtech 2 wheel in 270. However would also be tempted for 285.
Plastic bumpers!
Under "steering wheel" plastic cover
Rear plate filler
Hawk pads
BBS 14" weave center caps
Basic 6 button computer (mines bleeding)
I'd also be down to just hang and bullshit too if anyone wants to meet up and talk cars while I wait for traffic to die down.Last edited by e30_world; 03-01-2016, 08:04 PM.F80 M3 Alpine
