Hey guys im considering selling the Engine ANd Gearbox off the car
the good thing is that you can actually see its a perfectly running engine
Im considering a V8 Swop, if i get my price
Ill make it my drift weapon......That M Diff can dirft very nice, tried it in the rain , its so predictable
But I really want a V8 car, if thisd M3 sells complete then ill buy another Sx and shove a V8
Engine And Box...R50k ..and if you think thats too much fone around
engine only Sell for R40k if you lucky to find one

You'd better be thinking of a BMW V8, not a Chevvy v8 or something ancient like that!
M60 out of a 740i will be very very nice!

or if you can afford, a S60 out of a M5

I have M62 (4.4 from 540i)in my E30, not so easy to fit, you have to build new header pipes, to clear the steering shaft. I run the header forward and the under crossmember.

Not running yet, just recieved alum flywheel. Wil run with gotech pro.

If I can give you some advice, buy a complete car, take out what you need and sell whats left. cheaper than buying engine only. I bought a rolled 98 540i for R15000. Was auto, so coulnt get a flywheel, had to have an aluminium one made. Fitted a borg warner T5 gearbox. Sold the car for what the box and f-wheel cost me.

Not to mention the small loan you need to take out for fuel for the JZ
