    CT: 2.7is with Hartge/Mtech

    9/26/2015 UPDATE: Kicking around the idea of selling this again as I'm putting together a down payment on a house. Has gone less than 2k miles since ad was posted last year, the only changes is I've added oem headlight covers and an M3 firewall cover to the engine bay. Also changed center caps in wheels. $9.3K. Will consider trades that net me at least 6k. Drives and looks awesome and it's my favorite car I've ever owned.


    1986 325es with slightly built 2.7is conversion
    158,000 on chassis.

    ENGINE:
    -1986 ETA block with 885 head by BimmerHeads. Ported/Polished with 274 cam. About 2500 miles on rebuilt cylinder head.
    -Full mototronic 1.3 conversion
    -Rebuilt m50 injectors w/2500 miles
    -Rebuilt AFM w/2500 miles
    -Valve Cover/Intake painted black/red
    -Sssquid 2.7i chip specifically tuned for 274 cam and m50 injectors. 93 octane.
    -Pulls like a mofo especially above 4k

    EXHAUST:
    -Stainless BavAuto style long tube headers. Great fit.
    -No cat
    -2.5" all the way back to a magnaflow that sounds beastly.

    EXTERIOR:
    -NO RUST
    -Front and rear european bumper conversion, painted to delphin gray
    -RARE Hartge front apron with mtech moldings
    -Mtech1 OEM rear apron, modified by filling in the ridge lines at the bottom for smooth appearance.
    -Mtech1 OEM rear deck spoiler. This is a real e30 spoiler not the e28
    -Euro Smiles
    -Euro Grilles
    -Rear plate filler
    -Has a small dent on drivers front fender. Has a couple small scratches nothing big. Trunk lid has orange peel.

    DRIVETRAIN:
    -3.73LSD differential
    -Previous owner installed a lower mileage original equipment Getrag 260. Mounts look newer as well. Clutch feels nice.
    -I installed a rebuilt drive shaft from Portland Drivelines about 3500 miles ago
    -New z3 1.9 shifter installed 1000 miles ago

    SUSPENSION:
    -Ground Control/Eibach coilover conversion, with Bilstein Sport inserts, rears have less than 300 miles on them. The strut tubes have not been cut but I did modify the front perches to allow for lower adjustment.
    -Newer front sway bar links.
    -All else seems tight upon a recent inspection.

    WHEELS:
    -ESM 002r 16x8/16x9, customized with black bolts and vintage motorsport style center caps. Center caps are fading a bit.
    -Yokohama sDrive 205.45.16 tires with about 1000 miles

    INTERIOR:
    -Houndstooth Door panels.
    -Passenger seat in pretty nice shape
    -Driver seat has a split bolster on the outside.
    -Has original ETA cluster with red needles.
    -I converted the dry bottle to 134a last year and recharged the AC. It blew pretty cool but the AC button does not work. I had use a small jumper wire.
    -Momo tuner steering wheel
    -OEM ///M 5 speed shift knob
    -OEM Leather handbrake boot, ///M stitched shift boot
    -Dash has a crack on the drivers side, and a small one just above glove box
    -Newer Pioneer CD player with iPod and pandora controls. Planet Audio 5 channel amp in trunk.

    Stuff that I consider needs doing:
    -needs the interior fabric panel for sunroof
    -driver seat bolster repair
    -Cluster. Still has the original 5k tach. Brake lining light and temp gauge can be temperamental at times, always works just a little sticky. A nice rebuilt 7k unit from Bav Restoration or Guten parts would be sweet.
    -AC button
    -Right front turn signal connector wire came off. Haven't had the chance to pin it back in.
    -Hood could use an adjustment to fit better
    -Driver door lock cylinder can be a little temperamental but still works. I have a brand new coded replacement already.

    Other notes:
    I removed the washer tank and pump but still have it. I removed cruise unit and I think I still have it kicking around somewhere.


    I put a lot of work into this thing, especially the body kit stuff and the 2.7i conversion. We all know how much it would cost just to find a clean example to start off with, then add all the goodies.
