0 straight6pwr Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 feel free to come look at my swap whenever. i will be doing some maintenance in the near future (oil, ebrakes) so that day would be best i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest quillbro Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 yup i have an m50 swapped late model car. didnt do the swap myself, bought it that way. its an m50b25tu with the trans from the same car still attached. with the 3.73 it was super torquey, lots of fun but too high of rpms for the freeway. with the 3.25 it is still way better than the m20, but not quite as ballsy. i have no complaints about the car except i dont think the brake booster was done quite right, as it leaks and causes a lumpy idle at times. oil = so easy to change power = good 27 mpg, 30 if i drive like a granny anyone who tells you an m50 isnt worth it doesnt know what value is agreed.... they are much better engines for routine maintenance over M20's in my opinion. I have had a few swapped, a few M20's, a few m20 turbo's. The M20 turbos were the most fun but the most headache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest quillbro Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 oh, and I have an s50 e30... zf trans, rediculous clutch... didnt swap it myself. Looks clean as hell though. The engine bay is the best part of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
