Gizmo - How much do m54b30's usually go for?

From Japan Auto R25-30k.

 

[Sabretooth tiger]

how much is it to register the new motor to the car?

 

[Gizmo]

Not sure.

 

[Sabretooth tiger]

Not sure.

I know the Nissan okes do this often, let me check with some of them.

Gizmo - Why no Lexus V8 :crazylaugh:

Hmmm because Lexus and not BMW

 

[Gizmo]

Just finished the X3, well almost, just have to re-gas the AC tomorrow evening. It is now back to its stock form of 2.5lt, started on the first turn and idles perfectly! Quieter than the 3.0lt motor thats for sure!

FOKIT! this is cool. I need to come visit soon to come pick up that part from you I wanted to buy, I want to see this in the metal!

Welldone! raise:raise:raise:

Any updates Gizmo.....

 

[Gizmo]

I swapped the black X3 for my sister-in-law's 2005 Alpine White 325i touring exclusive with 140 000km on the clock. The idea is to wash\polish, service and sell the exclusive and make a little more money off it vs selling the X3 outright.

As for my M54B30 swap into my touring, it is sidelined for a little bit while I sort out an E46 M3 and a 840ci that have been patiently waiting here by me for sometime. Will update the thread when I get back to working on my own car.

Hardware all done, now just need software to finish her off.
