[pussy]

jaja : You got PM! Im looking for an M20 B25 initially....just wondering if your current engine needs a new owner

E30 of course

oh sorry, forgot to see the thread section..m50 is more robust i think.

 

[EEEE30]

If I were you, I will go with m50 to save lot of headaches. Also, m50 can breathe better than m52.

Tq pussy for pointing out so-called problems when swapping to m50.i will ask my mech maybe later this week.. i hope that there will be no such issues, as he already converted a few e30's to m50..

Ya, correct.maybe i'll go with the m50 route,after done a week of reading n research..

Ya, i heard about that also.the only concern now is about weight distribution.. maybe if my mech can keep my original current setup, which is battery located at the rear trunk, should've saves a few kg's..

auxoura, it's not that i don't want to sell u the engine, the thing is, my engine has many problems, burnt gasket, 5 of 6 piston rings already kaput, suspecting cylinder head crack (indicationil inside water tank), leak here,leak there, gearbox 'kasar' already, and the list goes on..

Im still hapopy with my m40b18..nimble and agile....top speed only 180 aja
