    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

    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.
