Tali's E30 M50 Swap

As a certified E30 hater since I was young I was always resistant to own BMWs in general. After I reluctantly took up an offer to drive an E30 just to try it out, my mind immediately changed. 80's cars in general have a distinct classic look and the BMW E30 is the epitome of that. After selling my M Roadster to fund the purchase of this E30 I got to work. This '88 325 super eta was slow, and automatic, albeit virtually rust free. Only 2 weeks after completing the manual swap a bad fuel pump led me to find coolant in the oil meaning it was time for more work. Already having an M50 bottom end I got for free the answer was obvious: 24v swap. The swap was completed as part of development of the Turner Motorsport 24v swap oil pan and the car has driven thousands of problem free miles since then. For me the E30 is a certified classic that is easy to work on, great looking, and fun enough to keep even the most skilled drivers hooked. Get yourself one before they have all rotted away!
