S38 Swapped BMW M3 E30
This 1990 BMW M3 features a performance-focused build with a 3.6 L S38B36 inline-six engine under a carbon fiber hood, delivering 311 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a Getrag five-speed manual transmission from a BMW E28 535i, sending power through a limited-slip differential. The suspension benefits from Bilstein shocks and Ireland Engineering sway bars, while BBS LM 17-inch wheels wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 tires cover AP Racing brakes. Interior upgrades include Recaro Profi XL seats and a TC Kline half roll cage.
