YEAHHHHHHH!!!!

[MidnightriderZ24]

got the engine and trans in! made the mounts out of 1/4'' cold rolled steel, kind of a bitch to cut lol. theres about 1/8'' clearance under the oil pan and the subframe. cowl hood is in order, which doesnt bother me at all. shifter sits about 3'' forward of the factory hole.

heres the bellhousing, world class t-5. still have to flip the lower intake and install rwd timing cover. for the clutch i picked up a conversion clutch from spec. hd pressure plate for an s10, and 6 puck stage 3 for a 94 mustang gt. more progress to come.

You sick bastard! I Love it! LOL

hah, yeah i love the old chrome bumpers, and the newer plastic...its always a toss up for me. a good buddy of mine has a 86 325, i built a small t25 turbo kit for the e motor in it.. its now a s50 turbo. u might recognize this car from e30 tech (the car i got). i found a few e36's but this fell into my lap and here it is. lol. it will be a fast car and i can really push my engine!

e30tech, bimmerfest, bimmerforums and r3vlimited are huge forums, hard to keep up with all but the locals and valuable members. Been a member at both for almost 5yrs, same usernames I always use with "Firebird"

I did the is top end swap, Motronic 1.3 upgrade and our custom chip. The eta made 134whp/145wtq, up from the stock 95/140.

Call me Mr. Fancy Pants, but I like the E36+. You two do have some sweet cars, still. I just wish a Beamer would pop up around here in decent shape at a decent price. Then again, if it did, I probably wouldn't be on these boards :/ Project GMW is a sweet name, though, lol.

[bob442]

go for it!

[ForcedFirebird]

Horrible plastic bumper swap on an early model. lol

I also have an 86 eta...

ive always loved these vehicles for years. have a few freinds with fast ones and said to hell with the cav! i found a 1986 325es that a buddy was selling, came with bilstein shocks/struts, bav springs, m3 control arms, poly every bushing. all it needed was a drivetrain...
