Re: M30 ENGINE SWOP
Using my box from my iS and a m20 fly wheel, could i still use my propshaft from the iS too? If i can thats a result all i would need to do or get would be a moded manifold. Can i buy these or does anyone know of someone selling one?

M50 ENGINE SWOP
Hi peeps,
I can get a 525i 24v engine from a e34. Now, what i need to know is what other parts are needed to carry out this conversion in my e30 iS. I can get the engine, gearbox, ecu, loom, manifold etc ect. But what other parts are needed to do the full conversion.
