That is disgusting. Whatever it is.

Haha yeah it was up as high as my jack would lift the car so if it didn't fit under I would have been screwed. It barely scraped through from underneath. Now just gotta lift it up and bolt it in. Was gonna have it in today but CBF.

^ What he said. Theres also 4 19mm bolts ontop too holding it to the subframe.

Are you talking about the 4 bolts on the input of the diff? Keep the car in gear or have the handbrake on to stop it from spinning and get a 17mm spanner and just whack it until they are freed. If you know what you are doing you can have it done in an hour.

Wow. m50 wuut.

Dope as F*ck. That last picture is awesome man.

Hah, I just use it to get the oil sump bolts out. I don't dare use it to tighten anything.

$420 shipped.

Gavin from Euro Italian can supply new exhaust studs. When I replaced mine I just tightened them in place without any loctite.

Getting started on the m50 now.. e36 Oil pan removed Oil pump removed. e34 (top) vs e36 (bottom) sumps. Comparing the pumps, they are identical and I would have saved abit of effort by just switching that long pickup tube that runs to the rear with the e34 pickup. Doh.

What?

No they didn't, Just put on from a sedan as they fit right up.

Throwing in some standard shock mounts you can drill out to fit these if wanted.. Any interest? Feel free to swing me an offer around $450 shipped and they're yours..

I agree lol both styles make me go nom nom nom, and I never nom nom nom at an e36

Sickest e36 I've seen. One of the only ones I actually do like. That stance is awesome.

Hah, In terms of my project I mean.. I already had a hoist sorted and your telling me not to use my 3 wheel trolley jack and use a hoist. Already there

Sweet will do, After a set of brand new ones though.

Haha of course not man, Already one step ahead of you. I have swapped in / out an m20 with gearbox 3 times. But not at my house though, cos we never had a hoist. My mate managed to sort me one that I can use for however long I want. Just sitting there waiting

Haha And one for Glenn,

Some Douche put a jack there and would have tried to jack the car. I bought it like that lol. Can't really straighten it up, I tried to but it is pretty hard. It's only the radiator support anyways.

He just didn't bother masking the subframe when he was prepping the engine bay. Not too worried. Can easily clean it off and paint the subframe etc.

After abit of 'evaluation' there is no way I would be able to lift the engine and gearbox in through the top with the car in the garage. Roof isn't all too high and yeah I can't push it out the garage either as our driveway is on a downwards angle. So I'm going to go with the idea suggested of going in from underneath. I've figured i'll def be able to get the car high enough the slide the m50 underneath. Also this way I will avoid messing up the paint this way (which I guarantee would have happened lol). So pulled the subframe now, while I wait for the front struts to be shortened. Oh and I learnt the hardway about fitting the steering covers while the dash is in. Top one wasn't too keen to fit with the dash in the way. Had to go back a few steps

$450 ono

Thats pretty sweet.. But have FUN moving it

Good sh*t man good to see it went well and I'm guessing you bought the 16" schnitzels? Should look sweet
