I owned a Z3 for a few months, but I recently had to get rid of it for financial reasons (couldn't insure two cars, needed rent money). I currently own a 2004 bone stock v6 mustang (slow as $#@! :music-rockout:) This week I am starting a job as a car salesman for a very high volume dealership and have the potential to earn more money than I ever have. My living expenses are low and I plan to keep it that way. I have always been one to jump into the deep end when it comes to projects, however this will be on a whole different level.

The proposition: E30 3 series engine swap with something new. I was originally thinking an N54 but that may be out of my price range considering I would pretty much need a doner car to make it work, since there (to my knowledge) isn't a standalone ecu alternative. I would prefer to do something that is either very rare or has not been done at all (hence the N54 idea). The e30 has always been one of my favorite BMW body styles to date so I plan to stick with that platform.

List of potential engines, in order of preference:
N54 (likely wont happen unless I turn out to be a car selling machine)
S62 (probably also too expensive)
S38
S54 (most likely route)
M52/4 turbo IF I end up not making the money I plan to

I am willing to be extremely patient with this build. I want to take my time (years if need be) and make sure every single part of the build is done with as much precision as possible. As much as I hate driving around in my stock mustang with its 160 or so rwhp, it only has 55k miles and is very cheap maintenance wise and isn't horrid on gas. Willing to keep it as my DD until this project is completed.

Back to the build idea. The more I am thinking about it, the more I am realizing that to do the N54 would likely cost north of 35k for the whole project. Are there any complete standalone options for this engine? Or am I correct in saying that the stock DME is (as of now) required to run this engine. I feel like the E30 is too old to even consider swapping over all the electronics from a 335/135. Perhaps a 135 interior could be put into an E30 but I feel like that is way beyond my expertise. Im already pushing it with the mere thought of an N54 swap.

I know the smart idea is to do the turbo s54/m54/m52 but that has been done with the E30 platform plenty of times. The powerband of the N54 in the lightweight E30 body would make for quite the performer, if pulled off well that is. Initial thoughts with my idea? way to ambitious for my first build? ]]> 3 Series and M3 DFM http://www.bimmerboost.com/showthread.php?39128-My-potential-first-bimmerboost-build-idea-E30-N54-swap-testing-the-waters <![CDATA[E9X: Any E92 xi with Apex Arc 8 17" x 9.5" on all 4 wheels?]]> http://www.bimmerboost.com/showthread.php?38954-Any-E92-xi-with-Apex-Arc-8-17-quot-x-9-5-quot-on-all-4-wheels&goto=newpost Fri, 03 May 2013 20:01:22 GMT I have a set of Apex Arc 8 17" x 9.5" wheels wrapped in Nitto NT555 255/40/17 up front and 275/40/17 in back.

Since i have removed the runflat tires i noticed the car became very floaty.
I changed the m-sport suspension with complete hartge suspension(lower the car a little), but although the handling has improved it is stil much floaty.
So i consider in these modification and need opinions..

- Quaife lsd dif
- M3 front suspension parts( tension struts and wisbones)
- M3 E92 front sway bar
- M3 4 rear subframe bushings
- M3 rear suspension parts( wisbonesand quide arms)
- M3 E93 rear sway bar.

As my car is convertible and 200 kgs heavier i consider to install M3 e93 rear sway bar( which is 23,6mm thick) and not M3 E92. What is your opinion?
The roads i drive have a lot of bumping and i have a fear that the car will loose traction, because the one rear wheel will lift of. Have any of you any issues?
Should i go with m3 e92 rear sway instead of M3 e93?
Does it worth to do any other mode for handling?
What allignement settings should i use after M3 parts?(335 values or M3)? ]]> 3 Series and M3 chiefsotos http://www.bimmerboost.com/showthread.php?38858-Advice-on-E93-suspension-moding-(m3-parts) E9X: WTB F10 style side markers for e90 in gloss black http://www.bimmerboost.com/showthread.php?38854-WTB-F10-style-side-markers-for-e90-in-gloss-black&goto=newpost Thu, 02 May 2013 04:17:24 GMT Want to purchase a set of "F10 style" side markers in gloss black, smoked lens with amber lights for E90. ]]> 3 Series and M3 robc1976 http://www.bimmerboost.com/showthread.php?38854-WTB-F10-style-side-markers-for-e90-in-gloss-black <![CDATA[E46: Gaphix E46 M3 World's-First Product Teaser]]> http://www.bimmerboost.com/showthread.php?38843-Gaphix-E46-M3-World-s-First-Product-Teaser&goto=newpost Wed, 01 May 2013 22:39:11 GMT Here's a teaser of our upcoming World's-First E46 M3 product.

The times when I did hear a shift, it sounded like a full manual transmission as opposed to DCT. The time between gears was higher than with DCT - but it's very hard to tell. Who knows.

Definitely handles like an M - no doubt about it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaBFQHRuFCw
