You should buy it so i can join the darkside with you. If i can get everything sold fast enough, im buying an E36.
Well shows how much I know about SR's. If it'll pass emissions then that's all that matters. I'd be willing to buy the SR if Letze wants the shell. (if the price is right obviously) Currently researching SR into E36 swaps......

Researched: Seems like the main issue is clearing the steering rack (switching from bottom to top mount mani) and making a rear sump oil pan. Still looking into it for hangups but if those are the main things then that's not too bad.

Then I guess that shows how much I know about anything. (typical ignorant BMW driver stereotype shining through brilliantly, but at least I can change my own oil )

Honestly it's down to that or building a new M44. (have a new block waiting in the wings) PM me a figure and it'll really expedite the decision making process. Gotta consider every cost associated: custom mounts, wiring, all that jazz.

On a side note, it's fun driving my car with basicallly no P/S and speedo. Feels like a racecar.
what shop did you take it to? I know Hannabass & Rowe has a bit of a track record with screwing up electrical pretty friggin regular. And if it went through your insurance, generally you just hafta mention that you'll call the insurance company to get them to take care of it and normally they'll reluctantly help you out...that's what I had to do with my GTO back when.

Well my wheels have been at Wheel Works for 19 days and counting. Apparently the sandblasting is taking longer than expected. I'd rather have it be done right than fast though, but this means they almost definitely won't be mounted before year's end. Anyone know of a good place to have part of a car vinyl wrapped? I want the roof black gloss but I'm not ready to commit to black paint at this point. I'm doing the roof black and a CF sunroof patch. (getting rid of that heavy-ass, broken cassette assembly)
