    It´s a s50b32 with an ASA supercharger. Here is a pic of the engine in a stillborn e36 racecar:



    I sure hope it will be quick and alot of fun

      Well - he has a strange way of showing it.

      Maybe he´s just having a bad day. I´ll just ignore his post & give him a chance.

        He was joking

        I thought the euro motors didnt like boost? What numbers can you expect? 350whp?

        As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
        You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

          If so - thats good :)

          This motor was prepped by AC Schnitzer - different pistons & some more stuff - need to get better info.

          Its in the 450-500hp range (crank).

              Awesome looking cars man!


              Ignore these forum kiddies giving you shit. One day they'll have to move out of home and start having to pay for fuel for their eta's by themselves.

                  nice, but I really dont understand why you would go all the way to germany to pick up a great all orig. car, to ship it to you to rape it. I am no S14 extremist, but if you are changing the brakes, and pulling the heart (THAT GIVES THE CAR ITS HERITAGE-the reason you want an M3?????), why not pull apart a reg e30 with fiberglass M3 looks- it would be cheaper.

                  I am not knocking you, I think the car will be incredible- just trying to discuss.

                  BTW, where in germany did you buy the car?

                    This isn't knocking?

                    Not trying to be a dick Mike, but i'd be happy people were increasing the value of your car.

                      Just keep your S14 laying around in mothballs. That motor is what gives that car it's heritage, without it it's an E30 with some extreme fender rolling. Or...buy a car that has a long lost S14. Quit taking the child away from it's mother. Someday you'll want to stuff it back in.

                      Oh and when George Graves said you suck he was being sarcastic. The translation is= Wow! That car is really fucking awesome! I wish I had it.

                      And this board has more than one resident asshole.

                        I am happy, and in the end, my car is far from stock also.

                        I was just stating what he actually did, not in a negative way, but he did go to germany- he did buy an all orig. car, and he is going to strip it out. right???

                        Once again, I am not trying to be negative( I think too many people here take me as being negative) just wanting to have an interesting discussion over why. cause I dont really understand it... just like alot of people dont understand why I do what I do
                        maybe it does sound harsh the way I typed it out, but I wasnt trying to be an ass.

                            Haha, your definition of rape is in my view improving the car. Whatever.

                            To be able to drive on the Ring you have to have a registered and insured car. That is why I shipped it to Iceland - it´s now registered to me and insured. Now it will be shipped back to Germany to a shop that will do the install/rape. The shop is run by an ex DTM racer that raced E30 M3's.

                            I bought the car in Öhringen-Kappel, it´s just north of Stuttgart. At the time of purchase it could not be registered in Germany - was only for export or motorsport (without registration). And also - the car is not 100% original - was originally black and also has an aftermarket Recaro seat. So it was already raped. ;-)

                              Thanks for the compliments on the M5 guys.

                              It is such a beast :)

                                I sure hope that supercharger will fit into the e30 engine bay, the way you have it pictured in the e36 bay, it will never fit
