    For Sale: 1991 325i with M30 swap with e32 parts car

    Here we go. I have no time left to work on the car. The car is a 1991 325iA with roughly 150k miles on it. I am the second owner, the first being a gentleman in the army. I bought the car with an overheating issue and decided to swap in an m30 for more power. The motor has roughly the same amount of miles as the e30, can't say for sure this is only hearsay. Every single gasket has been replaced on the motor (i.e. headgasket, timing cover gaskets, rear main seal, cam seal, crank seal, oil pan gasket, etc.). Yes the engine paint scheme is out there, but you can always repaint it. It ran and drove fine before the cam seized.

    M30 swap:
    - Funkmasta mounts
    - AKG poly engine and trans mounts
    - no a/c
    - p/s pump there, not hooked up
    - g260 trans
    - brand new stage 2 clutch
    - e28 front/e30 rear drive shaft
    - 2.93LSD
    - 3" single exhaust (will work for now, but should be properly completed). 2 1/2" dynomax muffler
    - 16" SPAL electric fan
    - M3 short shifter
    - brand new slave cylinder and master (clutch)
    - brand new cap and rotor
    - new timing chain guides and tensioners
    - new oil chain tensioner


    E30:
    - roof paint is faded. May be able to bring it back with a detail
    - Color is Schwarz (black)
    - never been in an accident
    - originally an automatic car
    - comfort seats - driver seat has some tears, passenger seat is pretty clean
    - Has an Alpine head unit. Can't tell if it's factory, but it's an older unit
    - tiny bit of rust where the rear fender meets the bumper. Hardly noticeable
    - one fog light lens is busted, but the fogs do work
    - sealed beam headlights


    PROBLEMS:
    - Needs a new head. Cam seized up on the one I just put on. Don't know what I did, but it happened.
    - needs a shift boot and a heat deflector boot for the shifter

    Kicker:
    You get a complete 1988 e32 735i parts car (head is no good) and every single e30 part I have in my possession. I can probably fill the 7-series with all the parts I have.

    A lot of blood, sweat, tears and money has been put into this car. I just cannot afford to spend anymore time on this and need a running car.

    With or without the parts car for $2500

            gots to. I have absolutely no more time to work on it. It'll be running nicely with a new head. I just can't afford to waste anymore time/money on it than I already have.

              OBO. I may be able to throw a junk yard head (with a 90 day warranty) in if the buyer chooses.

                          It might be crazy but I'm actually kind of considering this. In my current situation it would save me a lot of hassle. But the problem is getting it here...

                            ends tomorrow. Reserve is MUCH lower than the $3500 asking price.
