I do believe you mean something else. As that makes little sense. I'd suggest 'irony' as it fits better with what you're attempting to convey.

i wouldnt do anything like modify an M3

What i would do would be subtle small things, a different set of alloys depending on the conditions (big ones for summer, stds for winter) and the condition of the original alloys, i would most probably go for the alpina alloys... very nice they are.

i would restore the M3 to its original glory but with maybe a nice gear knob or nicer pedals... but nothing like stupid bumpers and that extreme stuff. I would only modify an already standard car...

And yes, in the above posts i was refering to the older M3, where they ar fairly underpowered...

also, dropping a big BMW engine into the 3 series os not a big big job, as the front end is already very strong... uprated suspension on the front is all that would be needed apart from different fuel delivery systems and driveshaft linkage...

As I've said before it would be utterly pointless sticking a 3.2 in let alone a 3.2 v12 in such a car. But hay its your car knock yourself out ;)

With a 3.2 V12 you would need uprated suspension, brakes, gearbox and clutch - and thats just the obvious things. There's no guarantee the engine diagnostics would work properly for example.

Without wanting to sound confrontational, do you even know if the 3.2 V12 M-Power engine will fit into a 318 (as in straight engine transplant)? If not you're looking at mounting reinforcements, possible cutting of the engine bay, etc. Either way it will not be cheap (figure £1000+ in labour alone) unless you know someone in the trade. And insurance will be astronomical. I would get quotes before even considering anything like this, I would hazard a guess it would push your quote up by at least £2000.

frankie is a pike, TUG is a pike.

I feel I must apologise to them again for being able to spend a decent amount of money on a car. Sorry guys.

Maybe one day you'll both find jobs outside of fast food joints.

My dad used to rally in minis in his younger days.
Says he could tune em up to be rapid of the marks but at about 60 cars would fly by.

ooh

im a pike

lol...

posh tosser, us pikes would give you the beating of your life... but i expect you get beatings every fri or sat you go out and people see how lame you truly are...



About the engine thing

The BMW V12 engine transplant is a big job... but its not as big a job as say trying to fit a 2.5 v6 cally engine into a nova...

a simple swap would be the 325iS engine transplant...

pretty god damned quick as that is...

I aint gonna say I'm some genius, because I aren't, I don't expect some amazing high paid, highly skilled job, because I don't class myself as intelligent.

What I *will* say though, is that I aren't an arrogant cunt, but you are my friend :)

That's one advantage I'll always have over you.

Cheers.

Arrogant people generally do better in life. So is it such an advantage not to be arrogant?

No, arrogant people just THINK they're doing better in life :)

No it's true. Why do you think they are arrogant in the first place?

No, you become arrogant because you perceive that you are doing better than your peers...

I dare say that there are arrogant pikeys too...

I avoid places that are full of mindless thugs, I don't like mixing with them. They are far too lower class for me.

Oh, and I've never been beaten up in my entire life, funny.
