If you guys think that putting a M50/S50 motor in an E30 M3 upsets the balance of the car then you guys obviously have never driven one. Just give it a try. And if you are in the Atlanta area shoot me an email and I can take you for a ride in one. Yes the motor weighs more and yes it is longer but the balance is still there. My car was originally built as a track car and has since been driven strictly on the street. But at Road Atlanta, Roebling Road, CMP, or Little Talladega it handles just as good as any E30 out there and I can't remember anything even coming close to it. Yes I do know the driver makes a difference but the car is well balanced on the track. Just watch out in the wet. Car then becomes a little bit more tailhappy than with the S14
