Had it, nearly 15 years ago. It was a show car imported into the Caribbean from Canada with tons of 2002 mods.

This one closely resembles it.

Holy crap, The M30 in the boat is an awesome idea! Perfect timing too, cuz I blew the OMC engine in my boat this season.

Adam you got a boat?

Wow, never knew that. I would love to help you with an m30 transplant

Klaus, did the translation of the page for me. It would be awesome if your buddy can come here so we can look at some more information I have here to go through.

Lemme know please. Are you still willing to do the diff swap? You wont need it for your boat

Call me please on my cell.

Raph.

yeah...it's an old Doral with a Big OMC V8. I'll probably just end up rebuilding it.

I'll check with my buddy and see if he can do it. I'll let you know

as for the diff swap, it looks as though the 3.25 that's in the e30 is going to be sold to Rob along with the car, since I got myself a new toy

. However I still have the 2.93 LSD that's yours if you want it. Just need to clear it out of the garage.

Striker · 11-15-2006, 07:40 PM

Wow a new toy, a 540i? Who is Rob? I will take the 2.93 LSD

Raph.

oh yeah sorry, Rob is my German buddy

And yep 540i6 sport

I'll try and get the diff to you sometime soon, maybe this weekend, any particular time that's good for you? Or if you want, just swing by Merivale on Friday night and I can give it to you there. Just one thing though, the back cover is a 5 series cover, cuz I had to use the 325 one to mount the new diff. But I figure you can do the same (just swap covers)

Let me know

Wow Adam, you hunted one down and got it, I am happy for you Bud

Please email me some pics.

Not too sure about Friday night as yet, will see. Back cover is not a problem, I have those.

Nice that Rob is getting your car, at least you can still see it around.
