E30 M3

Hey am looking to get an M3 E30.. First off what can i do to them.. Looking to make it a powerful track car.

Next do you think the car i am looking to get is worth 12k. Its got 160k on the clock. The tranny was rebuilt 20k miles ago. Has new calipers, rotors, radiator, Quafi diff, upgrading steering column to a DTM thingy, all new bushings, upgraded full suspension... Any ideas... Its red with tan interior.

Dump an E39 M5 400hp V8 into it. Gut it and only leave a drivers seat, a roll bar and a steering wheel inside. A good set of brakes, coilovers and other suspension parts and you will have a car that will be sooo bad *** and fun on the track.

If you read the latest European Car Mag. they had a write up on a e36 with a top mounted turbo system creating tons of power...a real insperater if you ask me(first car in 14months)...
