How much?

Post Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:56 pm

I have my heart set on doing a m52b28 conversion. Im thinking the best route for me is prob going to buy a 328i sport e36 and salvage as much as I can from it... What Im wondering is how much I need to budget for above the cost of the donor car? Also as a complete nub at mechanics, im going to have to get someone else to do the work... So, ideally I want to make it as easy as poss for whoever that is.. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks

2 grand on top of the pp of the e36? So all in i could be looking at around 2500-3000 for the conversion?
To be honest Im keeping the car so its not going to be how much much I have, just when I will have it...
I would like to have all the bits by the summer...

I'm in Rhoose and have done both m50 and the m52 in my own car.
You are more than welcome to have a nosey at my car to check the quality of work if you need to have someone else to do it for you.........

Danthe does some plug and play items to help greatly with this drop (modded manifolds, loom, fan loom ect ect), some of these I didn't use but he can make and supply them off shelf for you.

Highly recommended mate.

If you want to arrange to see the car and your interested in my offer give me a shout mate, I can meet you no problem - 07935 173588
