    Next Project, please leave your opinions

    So finishing up the s54 swap, I'm looking for a new project. I bought an e30 for a n54 swap but I'm thinking about selling it. These are the cars/builds i'm considering, e63 m6, a 1M clone, an audi TT rs clone or an e38 740iL. thoughts suggestions? other ideas? Thanks

    I have really been thinking about what an e38 M7 build would look like for my next project. N54 e38?

          I've always liked the idea of doing the e38 with an S62 and manual. It's been done a few times. I also like the idea of:

          S62 e46m (why don't we see this more!?)
          S54 e36m (not particularly special but cool nonetheless)
          S54 e30 (think of the smiles this would create)
          Clownshoe
          S85 in anything! Especially an E31!

            I also like the E82 platform a lot. I just don't have a lot of love for the turbo engines...

              My vote would be a 1m clone with an S65 swap.

                    K24 swap the E30. I'm seriously looking at taking the S52 out of my track E30 and doing that.

                      Oh wow, looks like KPower makes a custom oil pan for this swap.
                      I remember a few years back clearance was a dealbreaker. Sweet!

                        Yup. Their custom 4 to 1 long tube headers should be shipping soon too. I'd love a small, lightweight motor revving to 8k reliably in an E30 chassis.

                        The only holdup right now is apparently there is a shortage of RSX Type R oil pumps (or something like this) that you need to both accommodate the oil pan and bulletproof the oiling system for hard use.

                          I always thought the SWB E38 740i Sport would make a great swap candidate.
