#7: Re: E30 M3 sighting Author: ariel, Posted: Sun Mar 18, 2007 6:39 am ---- ...Ooowwwhhh!...nice!...very nice!
#8: Re: E30 M3 sighting Author: ognam, Posted: Sun Mar 18, 2007 7:05 am ---- S52? Really? Not too sure about that. What I heard is that it's an M50B25 stroked to 3 litres. Maybe berq can enlighten us all.
But I do know he plans on sourcing back for the original engine.
#9: Re: E30 M3 sighting Author: -berq-, Posted: Sun Mar 18, 2007 8:36 am ---- ohoho...just read this thread...yep,it my dads m ,im actually not sure whats the originality of the eng,was told it was s50,but after some time evaluating n researching about the eng,it seems that it was a m50b25,stroked to 3.2l using hiop kit,basically it is the same specs as the s50 us version which is basically a stroked m50(because of the us law),only the euro s50 is a different eng,s50 us uses m50 as its base eng...
the m just changed the whole wiring harness n its crazy...even im driving i got afraid of the power...n yes im planning to change to the ori s14 which is almost impossible to source here...

#20: Re: E30 M3 sighting Author: hamlyn, Location: Petaling JayaPosted: Wed Mar 28, 2007 2:09 am ---- bro where is the worksyop in this pic? seems there's some classic sport cars there.
#21: Re: E30 M3 sighting Author: buddy, Posted: Sun Nov 18, 2007 11:45 am ---- Yup,this M3 sure is a beauty. any e30 lovers will fall in love at first sight with this car. interior also done up immaculately...black leather with red seat belts...nice touch.
The mechanic is douglas,his garage at subang...i always lepak there when i'm down during my vacation. he is a classic car restorer. does a lot of jaguar e types. think there should be one red one in his workshop now.
there's also an Aston Martin DB9 sitting in his workshop,waiting to be worked on...and also a Maserati Sebring GT. Other cars done up include a 62 Corvette, an Alfa Romeo Spyder Giuletta and a few more.
A visit to his garage is like a visit to a candy store!!!sure drooling one!!!
#22: Re: E30 M3 sighting Author: buddy, Posted: Sun Nov 18, 2007 7:02 pm ---- Sorry, as for the post above,it's not an aston martin db9 but a db5...my bad!!!

#24: Re: E30 M3 sighting Author: tamade7, Posted: Thu Nov 22, 2007 12:14 pm ---- Bro berq before the previous owner, this car was owned by a japanese. He was not using the right engine oil and was on his way to Johor. Before he reached Johor the engine jammed and it was too expensive to fixed. He then changed to an e36 325i and stroked it. The kit comes with a new block so basically only your harness is from an e36 325i. The rest is from the stroker kit. I saw a few pics of your car when it just got its new engine. At that time your car was the only e30 with e36 engine.
Last I heard the s14 was bought by some mid east guy and was exported to middle east. Don't know how true is the story tho.
