You know how to post links? Its the little icon with the world and what looks a like a little paperclip underneath it.

Click that and then you can add what you want for the link's text and then click ok, then you copy your link into there.

It should be a nice swap, the 318 motors make ~130hp. Allspeed Imports in Peachtree City did a swap like this a while back with good results.

I like it, the BMW motors cost ~10K for a decent turbo kit. You could pull the 1.7L out and sell it to a junkyard and then install a decently modded SR20 for less than 10K overall.

Personally I'd say the exact same thing about the few 2JZ M3s floating around the world. Much cheaper and more reliable swap than turboing a car and leaving stock internals.

That's a pretty crazy sleeper...cuz the first thing I'd think is RICER for having a nismo sticker on a bimmer...similar to those gtr v-tec mustangs i see lol


i'm 50/50 on it


-50 for being a hideous 318....+50 for the sr20 :goodjob:

I reallyyyy wanted erin's SR20 for a '76 2002 I found but since decided to go the E30 route. Found a '97 M3 swap for $3,500 but looking for a '95 [OBD1] :)

And then you'd be getting beat by punks in turbo Civics because you wont have enough money to turbo it after buying the EDM motor.

I'd rather see an Ls1 in it. But hey whatever works.
