    WTT/WTS: FEELER M/S50 swapped BMW 318

    Looking to trade or sell my 1991 318i with M/S50 drivetrain swap.

    Name: Theodore Palacino
    Contact: PM, email theodore.1959@hotmail.com, or text/call me anytime at (864)-373-1015. I can send more pictures and details upon request.
    Price: Asking price is $5800 obo, or straight trade/trade plus cash on your end. I'd really like to see cash, so throw me some offers! I'd be willing to trade for a stock m20 325 with suspension/wheels plus cash on buyer's end.

    Contrary to how the car was built, she has NEVER seen the track! It was built to be a fun daily (that could go on the track if you're feeling adventurous)

    Suspension/Wheels:
    > H&R OE Springs
    > Bilstein Sport Shocks
    > Poly eccentric rear trailing arm bushings and subframe bushings
    > Motorsport front control arms and bushings
    > Poly sway bar bushings with M3 rear sway bar
    > Cross drilled rotors and Hawk pads, rear bronze slides, braided lines, including clutch line
    > Stud kit and 4mm front wheel spacers
    > Dforce LTW5 Spec E30 wheels with NEW 225/50/15 tires
    > Euro manual steering rack, solid steering guibo, non airbag steering column conversion

    Differential:
    > 3.45 built differential, 40% lockup, polished gears and spiders
    > cryogenically treated internals, Motorsport cover.

    Misc:
    > Poly engine and transmission mounts
    > Complete Air Conditioning delete
    > Factory keyless entry
    > Rear headrest/armrest leather seat
    > Sans OBC display from early model.
    > Sans rear window and lockout switch from early model
    > 4th "woah nellie" grab handle for driver
    > Motorsport lighted shift knob
    > Airbag delete with Motorsport 1 wheel
    > Euro side trim
    > Factory plate frames
    > Hella smoked headlamps with 100W bulbs
    > Smoked turn signals

    Motor:
    > 2.8L bottom end, new BMW OE with approximately 60k miles, 2.8L engine is under square and has forged crank.
    > 3.0 cylinder head, approximately 30k miles, fully redone by Turners' machine shop in Dover NH.
    > All BMW OE hardware and gaskets
    > Complete OBD1 harness and peripherals, my preferred for the E30 as it is
    > simple, reliable, easy to repair and never breaks.
    > Euro HFM, big injectors, Turner Motorsport tuning.
    > Top quality fluids used throughout drivetrain at all times.
    > OBD2 exhaust manifolds ceramic coated
    > Under drive pulleys
    > Short shifter, custom made from a bunch of kits, custom upper carrier
    > length.

    Drivetrain:
    > ZF310 manual five speed, new BMW OE with about 50k. *
    > BMW OE M3 drive shaft, 50kish.
    > EVO3 E30 M3 clutch and flywheel, 20k miles.
    > No leaks on any assemblies.
    > Dual engine grounds.
    > Custom exhaust, dual 2.5 inch pipes with resonators back to a Remus muffler

    "NEEDS/WANTS":
    > It's not perfect. Ideally it will require a paint job as it is a solid 10
    footer, the clear still shines great, but the paint is tired; the body MINOR dings here and there.
    > I still maintained the finish as if the car was mint, with regular detailing and wax.
    > The car has 3 rust spots, one on the passenger door jamb, the rear tow hook location, and the passenger front fender location. *All are normal E30 rust spots and can be repaired. That is the ONLY rust on the car.
    >passenger door handle needs to be replaced

    >the fuel tank, lines and clamps were never removed when the swap was done, which is not necessarily critical work. *I have also never serviced the heater box - they never break, but I am disclosing it here. The heater box is also original.

        If I had a nickle for every time lol. It's a bucket of chalk, for people to write on the hood...for instance I'll park downtown, write "draw on me" and draw and arrow to the chalk bucket. I had a meeting downtown one afternoon, came out to my car and she was covered.

          I LOVE that hood idea. I couldn't do it though, I freak when people are hanging around my car. GLWS!

                  Indeed, I actually came out the the car one time to 3 chicks writing on it...I said "if your bold enough, you can leave a number"...they giggled, then left their numbers! :pimp: .....I never called though, I figured that'd be an odd one to explain "hey, uh yeah, I'm the guy whose hood you left your number on :|" lmao

                  No, never been put on a dyno...I may be putting it on a dyno here in the near future to satisfy my curiosity, but I'm going to guess it's between 230-250?

                    **update, the heater started making an odd noise, and only works on 4 now...I'm going to look into fixing it, but will go ahead and do my first price drop. $7100, or trade for a 325e or es plus cash on top of "buyer's" end
