actletpone 43 Report post Posted December 23, 2013 I sold my one a few years ago for just over 11k, 80km with full running gear, loom etc Sounds quite allot although I guess they are rare. I honestly have no idea what s50/s52's are worth. It's not a project that is starting anytime soon, basically weighing up options to get a reliable 240 - 280 hp out of an e30. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paragon 14 Report post Posted December 31, 2013 There is a S50B32 taking up space in my garage, out of a UK car. Complete less ECU. I would take $4000 for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoJoJoe 46 Report post Posted January 2, 2014 sh*t you did well. You can import a complete car from the UK for about 8k. Might have twice the kms but still. sorry for thread jacking but there is a decent S50B32 M3 on trademe for 15K. Not bad but I dont want to spend that much. Where are you guys getting M3's for 8K? does that include all the shipping and import duty charges? whats the condtion of the cars, interior/exterior? fill me in. i wont mind increasing my budget a bit more. few years ago when I was in the market for a S50B32 swap everyone wanted around 12K for the motors Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
euroriffic 607 Report post Posted January 2, 2014 Now that the early ones are 20yrs old you could probably look at starting to import them for road use if they're not rusted out... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
