yeah i love our security guards. the old back gate guy hated me since i didn't put the sticker on my truck (i was only going to have the truck for a month or two) and i kinda ran the gate over one night when he wanted to play 20 questions

astons on that side of walden lake if you go out the side the west entrance of walden lake you drive by the entrance to my neighbor hood. i might be moving to the polo's found out one of the guys back there is going bankrupt and i'm all about taking advantages of situations lol so by the time you figure out where that is i might be moving lol

 

Yea the black one.. Its a $800 ebay car I got it because it has a 5 speed.

Its needed a bit of work. the body had dings in every panel. Its good good car to take to Ybor.. I dont need to worry about dings scratches etc..

I pulled the front valence and bumpres off the car at Cophers. the valace was maybe a15 min job once the bumper is off.

Once you find a pretty one as a replacement.. If you go that route. let me know Im interested in the old bent one for my Lemons e30,,

Ill be taking it out to Zepher hills at the PCA auto x this sunday.

 

aston woods is the first left when you come in off of turkey creek. its like 1/4 mile down. i build custom cabinets and do home remodeling and we do lots of jobs in walden lake. we just finished one wednesday in aston woods.

yes the super eta piston maintains super eta 8.5 compression with an E bottom end and seta or i head. not a super desirable compression ratio but youll be able to run new motronic and rev to 7k and still make power. youll need all the new motronic stuff to run that though. the super eta also has a weak cam that isnt really made to make power at high rpms so you may want to look into atleast getting a stock i cam or finding a whole i head to use with the seta pistons. along with the bigger manifolds. with this motor youll almost need a different diff ratio too.

 

i was planning on doing the seta pistons and 1.3 motronic, with entire upper halfof engine. i was also gonna try the m30 afm cuz i got one so why not try it,

bam-i decided to hammer all i could outwards and bondo'd it, it came out pretty good for not being a professional.

 

yes thats what youll need. i wouldnt even bother with the m30 afm but thats me. have you got the pistons and stuff? i may be buying an m52 from a friend instead of installing another m20 in my car. if i do that and you still want to do the 2.7i, i have a lot of super eta/i/misc. parts, basically a whole 2.7i motor that i wouldnt be using. but im not sure if the m52 deals going through as cheap as i want it haha.

 

i was planing on less work as possible you know, so if you really want to get rid of a whole 2.7i engine, in good cond. then ill do it, but that is if doesnt need a lot of work, other than wiring and a few tweeks
, just lmk, as long as u dont overprize im interested,

does that 2.7i engine have the super eta pistons and 885 head , or is it the stock eta bottom and with the 323i head?

but if you are not going the m52 route and replacing your m20, you could sell me a few things for my build, i can decrease the m52 cost for you


man we gotta do another meet, i got two people from R3v interested.

 

the motor im referring to is out of the car and not assembled. i have e and i heads, and super eta and euro 11:1 e pistons. and assorted i and e parts. all the parts are there for a couple kinds of 2.7, but its far from a ready to drop in motor.

be on the lookout for old 328s and 528s for me. my pal with the 328 is sticking to a crazy high price. if i can get the motor/accessories/wiring for under 1000 i will go m52! ive even got the m50 intake manifold/m50 obd1 parts/bav auto headers and shit on a wrecked 94 325.

 

The FloridaGerman Lakeland meet is tonight guys, cut and paste from said site

----------
Chili's In North Lakeland
3980 US Highway 98 N
Lakeland, FL 33809
(863) 859-7350‎

We will be meeting here between 7:00 and 7:15 since they're open a little later.

for those coming from tampa and orlando, you'll take Exit 32 (N 98 ) from I4 and proceed north about 1/4 mile and it is on your left hand side.
----------

i'm not 100% sure if i'm going but if i do i'll be in the non german car as my e30 doesn't have suspension in the front right now

 

lennon there is an M50 in the cophers junkyard, the injectors were off but all the wiring was still there, i didnt look harder for im not interested in the swap, but for two bucks u mind find them and take them , also i keep telling you there is a bunck of wrecked bmws, with m50 engines in 50th a little bit after palm river man. check it out man, is called euro auto parts or some shit like that,

i dont care if i have to build the motor up you know, i just wanted a near drop in as possible, ill talk to you more then later, just let me find a job and we can start talking about what parts id be interested in, getting you closer to ur m50 swap,
as well as some advice.

 

yea we'll talk if another e30 meet is attempted. its a high possibility ill still use the m20 because it will be fully rebuilt with all wear parts replaced and no worries/swap hassles. m20 in m20 out is easy. but doing obd1 m52 has been in my mind for a long time and im starting to realize m52s can be had for pretty cheap.
