bmw330is Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Its much uglier now as i was preparing to have it sprayed, but I had to put that on hold (needed monies for buying a house). http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=404&pictureid=2927 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=404&pictureid=2926 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=404&pictureid=2925 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=404&pictureid=2924 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=404&pictureid=2923 Its a 1991 318is, but ive swapped the brakes and suspension from the same model year M3 and swapped the motor from a 95 M3. The motor has the usual bolt ons and made 223 rwhp and just over 200 in torque. Its pretty light so its a fun car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmw330is Posted September 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 you smell like aids. i hate your car. suck a fatty. Sharp car bud. How much did all that set you back including the car itself? I was always interested in going this route with an old model bmw I started with a bone stock 70k car that I didnt get a deal on. None of that really mattered anyways because I replaced everything mileage related. Motor-wise for a 3.0 or 3.2 youre looking at around 3k and if you start with a 325i/s you can use the stock driveline. What supprised me was all the little parts that added up (so i never did). Sometimes its best to just not know. The swap requires little/no fabrication and uses all bmw factory parts. It would be cheaper to buy one alreay done and sorted vs building one if youre just after the end result. Theres alot of variables that come into play with pricing the swapped cars so it just depends what you want with it. Feel free to Pm me if youre serious, i can point you in the right direction. and actually, the asshole above is about to figure all of this out!
