Took me nearly 2 days but while prepping the engine for the swap & OBD1 conversion the M52 for my e30 project is cleannn! Spray can degreaser and a scotch pad...

As soon as I'm comfortable with the car and get the suspension finalized she's getting a GT30R :twisted:

Patience!

Taking forever to get the best deals on parts. I'm still looking for a 10lb. flywheel. Really want a 8.5 though! Turbo lag? Hmff...I want throttle response.

These engines are really tight and I've seldom seen on with leaks. It's common for the seal on the remote oil filter leak but that's it. Surprisingly for a 13 year old engine most of the grime wiped right off!
