OK, I was searching for pics of the BMW 350 (M5 engine) conversion to show a mate and I got this link from google..
As you can see the M5 engine conversion is there at the top and looks mighty sexy... i then scrolled down to look for better photos and OMG...I found yet one better. This has to be the best conversion yet.
7 series V12 in an E30, thats right, a whopping great big 5ltr BMW V12... in a tiny E30 shell. If thats not mad I dont know what is - but I love it. its so mad its almost perfect! And nicely rebadged with 'V12'. might as well cos you aint going to fool anyone with the exhaust note that would be making!

I'd be happy to have a crash in one of them. I know a guy who wants to get rid of his 750 too 
It's in too good nick though, to split. Oh well if he keeps it for a couple of more years it may be tatty and cheap right when I want to build one

Na I'm still at uni till the end of May. I'll have to get it done in the hols, might try doing it my self. Cos I've done spray painting before just don't know how all this metallic/laquer stuff works. I think I'm going to go for a budget 2.7, do a V12 in 2/3 years time when the insurance company won't just point and laugh. If I'm going to bother going to the hassle of putting in a different engine it might as well be the big one
Go for the 6 series interior mate, it'll be a bit of a hassle but you'll be the only person with one, t'll be a unique E30
and fukcin comfortable.

Dunno about leather in Leeds. Don't bother telling the DVLA just as long as the seat belts are up to MOT standard it really dosen't matter, which car are you going to put them in? Cos you 'd be selling the cream leather would'nt you? Dunno about the 2.5 might have to take it to bits to make the 2.7 but I'm sure we can find you a pukka 2.5 if you want one. Might get a scrapper in the hols for some money, so I can make money and work on my car at the same time. Dunno about the mud flaps don't you have a set on one of those 24 cars out back
I'm doing Marine Biology, it's ok but there is always somthing else I'd rather be doin.
Tis quite addictive, I should be writing an essay now.
Oh just looked at the pic, didn't realise the rear set broke in to 3 peices, have you got door cards, can't you put them in and just have the cantre bit modified so it's the right width? cos I'd imagine the 6 is wider inside than a 3.

Sounds good the car I mean, you cant beat good clean BBS's, I might get mine refurbed at some point, say over christmas, I'll give you a call closer to the time maybe get a discount for doing 2 sets wat ay think?
Get the 6 series seats in! Stop procrastinating They'll be awesome, pleas tell me the front are the electric ajustable ones? Oh no you said you were going to have to shorten the handle oh well.
Hey all the eleccy sh1t from a 750 along with the engine would make an awesome 3 series, Hmmm as you say I may have to start collecting parts.
I think I'm just going to go the get it sorted externally and leave it SE spec, then spend some time on the engine and arbs cos I'm quite happy with the height, do the MTech springs drop it or are they just stiffer?
If I'm going to change the springs I only want to go -10mm/15mm max.
Stop pissing around in the kitchen, and get the bonnet on and give it a polish, if it's arrived. Was any thing else dented?
PS when are we going to do the northern meet? Hey just had alook 15 peeps for the meet that's pretty good
