'99 M3 Engine in Buy&Sell

[Drake]

I remember talking to someone on here a while back who wanted to do an S50 swap. Anyone who's interested in doing an engine swap I thought I'd let ya know there's an engine and drivetrain from a 99 M3 in the Buy&Sell. If you're mechanically inclined and know a deal about OBD I/II, this could be for you(or if you just have a lot of money to spend on labour)

That would definitely be a sweet mod, but only 5K? Isn't that too cheap?

[rain0ne]

the seller list no mileage on the engine. ooohhhhh I still want it bad, not my time yet though.

[Mike 91 318ic]

I'm now thinking screw the motor swap, just buy an M3 and avoid the hassle...

[rain0ne]

Mike go for it!!!!!!! Your e30 would be outta hand!!

[Mike 91 318ic]

It's already out of hand, price that is... I've spent SO much money on my car, and another 10k isn't an option. If you guys new how much $$$$$ you'd shit. I'm doing my last mods tomorrow (famous last words) which is a LSD, & M3 rear sway... this weeks work is going to cost around 3k which I'd much rather save or use somewhere else. I can't do a motor swap anymore because it's just too much money. I'd rather just buy a slightly modified E36 M3 and leave it at that. The ONLY thing left I want to do is Euro ellipsoids once that's done it's finished. If I get bored of the car I'll just have to learn to be happy with what I have.

I wanted to ask is the new diff a custom ratio or did it come out of another bmw?

[Mike 91 318ic]

I'm not not even sure what ratio it is... The diff is from a E36 318ti, CG said it's a 4.44 but the etk lists it as a 4.45, I guess it'll be either one of the two.
