swaping an M47 into the E30.

[Mister V]

i'm from belgium and i drive a e36 diesel, 318tds, 16xxcc and stock 90bhp and 190Nm
quite boring i here you say, indeed, but i've chipped it, now it runs a little better but its not a bomb

in e30series there wa the 324d a lazy 6stroker with appr. 110bhp

So I'm thinking of selling my 1992 325i.

Reason is, I've relocated to South Dakota and am only a walk away from work but some stinkin' long drives anywhere else.  So I'm also thinkin...

M47 into the 1992 325i?

M47 into the 1992 325i?

as long as the m50 is in the 318is

Anybody see this one?  Or know who this is?

Granted it's an M21 IDI, but he claims 50mpg and likely 10-sec 0-60mph.  That little e46 320d DI should be outstanding.  I wonder if it revs like a gas engine...

The half clip is a great idea...I was looking to buy a 180sx once upon a time and the JDM cuts were pretty cheap.  Anyone in Germany willing to source our parts?

Yeah, I've seen that website before.  Great inspiration.  No idea who it is, though.

Once in a blue moon I run across listing like this one also...

I thought about doing that to my e34...but then I bought this money pit 318i...

That looks like the real deal, too.  I wonder what kind of mileage an E34/M51 gets?  My E34/M20 does like 19/26.
