s50 e30
got my s50 today. my friend at the shop nextdoor to mine got it unloaded from the truck and into mine with his forklift. when i got home, borrowing a hoist didnt work out and it was too late to rent one so unloading was a chore to say the least. it was storming and the power was out, and no homies were close by to help. i ended up getting it unloaded by myself with some good help from my girlfriend.
it was too late to do any work on the motor, but tomorrow after work ill start breaking it down. all gaskets/seals including head gasket are getting replaced. all vacuum and coolant hoses, sensors, water pump, injectors getting redone, maybe new coils, more stuff im forgetting. i will be using my getrag 260 transmission, stock driveshaft, and 3.73lsd. i have already made an adapter to plug the s50 harness into my e30's c101 connector. i have one or two uncertainties about the wiring but all will be clear as soon as its all plugged up.
should be fun! ill post pics of the motor tomorrow as i begin to get into it.
