It would be cool... if it wasn't a rotary

What I have been told you can do, and what i want to do to my M50 is this. By the way mine is vanos. You get your inlet cam reground ( might cost a few hundy ) and get the INLET cam from a non-vanos m50 and put it on the exhaust side of a vanos m50. I am still doing research on it, but from what I have read that is the best idea, and cheaper than finding US S50 cams..

Yep. Been in palmy the last 5 months though, but now back in Tauranga for a few weeks now, until I find a flat in Hamilton.. I live a lot of places lol.

The good old days.... that commadore got a beating. Here is a pic of what it looks like now, I took this just the other day.

Bogan ass video of you coming right up! And more of some notorious limp mode automatic skid attempts.
-
The e36 had a m50b25 nonvanos in it, he wants to put it in his e30.
-
Yep turbo m42. 300rwhp.
-
Thought this was rather funny. A mate of mine in his $500 e36 thinking he's the mean rally driver! Dont worry, it had already been crashed, he just wants it for the engine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DdTOvDBFdc...re=channel_page

This is one of the few cars I'd wouldn't want to be seen dead in more than a Mx5 itself!

m50 turbo m50 turbo m50 turbo! on a serious note, if you wanna put a rotary in it, heaps of people have done it before, but i dont know if any of them are on here. And when it comes to "rooting for the underdog," having a old bmw in the first place that goes fast is basically the definition of that =P

I blame rap music
-
You dont need a cert if it's a factory gearbox. You probably should just ring and tell them, when my mate converted his e30 to manual he did and they just said "ok," when i converted mine I didnt even bother lol. Probably should of though.

HDR'd for extra shine
-
This. I have been told that because of the weight difference they are about even off the line. I'd say the m20 would have more pull up high though.
-
I've been told it's pretty even.
-
I think it depends on how much of a bastard you are to the car. One mate of mine has blown a fair few diffs in his e30, he has 220rwkw, he has gone through a few gearboxs as well if i recall properly. Another mate of mine has a m50b25 in his 320i, and he blew the diff up the other day just changing harshly into 3rd. Bigger axel and bigger diff and ya should be alright I guess, i have no idea how much power a standard driveshaft can handle though.
-
Lol he put up a new auction exactly the same only the "M3" part is gone. I think he got the idea.
-
My old e30 had a crackless dash, used to cover it with newspaper and other garbage i could find in the car whenever i parked it outside for anything longer than an hour on hot days.
-
http://vimeo.com/3434096 another good vid from the same guy, with a few more bmws this time.
-
Had my old 325i up to an indicated 220kmh going down a hill with a tail wind
-
thats gotta hurt
-
My mates e30 has an open diff that thinks it's a LSD sometimes, I wish I could say that same about my e36 but it is certainly a one wheel wonder.
-
Funny you say that, it was at the Kairua road intersection, just down from the Papamoa roundabout. Heh!

Tauranga is full of retards. At the start of the year I was walking down the Mount in the evening with my arm in a sling, I had a broken colar bone, and out of no where this dark fella comes out and stands in front of me waving his fists wanting to have a fight. I said "Are you joking? I have a broken colar bone for Christs sake" or something a long those lines, luckly his mates, who actually looked just as thick as he did, had a little sense and pulled him away. MORONS.
