[QUOTE="Equalizer, post: 63785, member: 151"] Hahaha!!! Thanks to everyone - you guys are real gems!! :D I am looking forward to all the thousands of words ..... Fabian sifu - the fact that I am keeping a 20 year-old car and now planning to put even more money into it is a show of passion, huh?? Let's see how much passion I can be capable of ..... depending on how much you guys can racun me-eh??? Hahaha!! Alvin - I really dun have a budget in mind but when I first bought my car back in 1997, I had paid RM30k for it and spent another RM18k to do it up. Most of that money went into a half-cut with 2.7eta engine and autobox, paint job and complete cabin works including carpet ..... of course, in those days I think there was no BMW Club yet and hence I did not even realise I was buying an eta engine!! Right now, the car is immobile - it would not start and I really dun have the time to fiddle with it ..... I spend too much time away but that's gonna change real soon - I have a new job and hopefully that will mean I get to spend more time in KL and hence I am now itching to get my e30 up and running again :rolleyes: I like the 2.8 engine in the e36 - I dunno the code number but it is the 1995-1998 model, like WKWoo's ..... I am unsure whether this can be made to fit into an e30 but I guess if you, Alvin, managed to shoehorn that monster 3.0L engine of yours in, what's a 2.8L eh???
