Thanks to wibimmers for existing or I wouldn’t be building my dream engine ., as long as I continued to search ,I knew someday I’d find.

Decided to pull the guns out yet again ... snagged up yet another bmw ,this time an e34 m5 ..i only intend to use the engine and drivetrain for my dream project ..s38 stuffed’’ into an e30, the plan is to replace restore every single nut bolt seal gasket bushing bearing everything with extensive detail .. so far I began with the throttle bodies. top of engine working my way down, engine harness ..everything getting restored, .carbon intake in mind ...should be fun , enjoy!

Otis? Who chad?... lol
... , so I ended up purchasing a 85 325e  without an engine or trans and in pretty darn good shape , the underside amazes me the most it’s near rust free and the pinch welds are near perfect ! This is exactly what I wanted for the m30 engine trans swap ,lots of time to invest ,should be a fun adventure!.I am stoked😆..so here’s a few quik pics .🤪

most of the e34 chassis/suspension will be up for grabs when I am ready to disassemble yes , I’d like to hear it with a set of long tube headers first and have it running excellent before i take it all apart, once I am happy with it running good wich I am it will be ready to come apart ..,        not yet , I’ll probly keep the style19’s and refinish them again ...since I gave the last set away for an m5 e34diff on my last 535, I’d like to see them on a future’ bmw 
..prefer a e21 ,knowing the challenge and being slightly older, I know the e30 will be a better fit. Will have to see what happens it’s all up in the air at moment 

I am stoked !  I finally bought another e34 m30 manual getrag 260 equipt with lsd to use for my future e30 e21 swap..now I am in the hunt for my next non running bmw ,, I know this has been a common swap for years tho I have not done this myself yet I know they are tanks 540lbs with trans,I’ve helped with plenty others e30 s54 swap e21 m50 swap e46 s38 swap I am going to just enjoy this one every single nut and bolt one at a time ..off the bat it’s equipped with h&r lowering springs , spec stage 3clutch and fly, short throw shift, hydrolic ebrake kit, new rotors, caliper kits ,water pump, radiator excexc,bbs style 19’s, excexc,the car rolls ok itself just rusted out and beat ,interior trashed most missing , half the shiot works, only 168k so I thought to myself man this will be perfect donor runs solid shifts goood tho loud as heck with no cats no res no muff you can hear this thing coming with ease..so here it is and a few shots of damage control .,cheers to my bmw#25🎉
