What in the fuck. Amazing price...

Yeah I don't have paperwork for the engine rebuilt cus the guy and I lost contact so I'm just trying to pass it on and get a Tacoma lol

I'm guessing $10k to completely finish - but that would be an incredible machine finished.

Someone like Vlad should take this over and complete.

[Frenche]

For 10k you would have a sick ass car.
I was only budgeting like 2k to finish.
Of course flat black no paint job nothing fancy just drivable.

Frenche - You should post this on bmw2002faq.com. Someone may only need what you have to complete their current project. Just a thought.

Hey now. I have dibs on this car already!

Yeah this guys got "dibs" . He seems to be really motivated and getting a budget together so sounds like this car could be getting finished up!8-)

[leadphut]

In my book, until the seller has the money, the car is still for sale. I've had a few buyers back out or have had trouble "putting funds together." I won't hold a car for anyone any more.

Good luck Frenche!

[Frenche]

Thanks Leadphut. Right now whoever has cash gets the car! :)

Just FYI for everyone. Stock E30 325i driveshaft will fit(the motor mounts are my version, similar to dan williams'). Pedal box will need a boosterless mastercyl setup, massive lee makes a weld-on kit, shift linkage from a stock getrag 260 will work if you cut a new shifter hole and shorten the e-brake(easy to do), interior = simple, get a $500 Maaco special and you'll be good.

You may even be able to fit a stock pedalbox/booster setup back in to simplify things.

The stock diff will not handle anywhere near the power you'll be able to make with this so plan on either running low boost(6-8psi) or building a custom rear end with E30 medium case diff(2002 haus makes one and it's ~$1000). Then brace the shit out of the chassis to handle the power.

$<2000 is a realistic budget to get it driving, maybe $4000 more for the E30 rear end, some 15's, coilovers, and massive lee's 300x32mm discs w/wilwood calipers.

Who ever buys this is going to get a sweet deal! If I didn't have my turbo M10 project already I would be all over this.

Always a good idea to provide compression #s and leakdown if you don't have paperwork for a "rebuilt" engine.

Manimal its confirmed it will fit with your mounts? I gotta go grab my friends shaft... and try it out. No pun intended.
I think I might just suck it up and finish it because people are being hesitant. Im just very very low on cash until summer!
Plus for me I have a coil over big brake set up on my DD 2002 so my budget wont be very $$ to finish . I got cool seats ill transfer over nice mom wheel etc. The problem is that my dad is on my ass about the car in the garage adn when I dont have money its hard to make progress.


PANDA- Thanks thats great idea. Appreciate the feedback.

[kronus]

Oh my fuck. PMing.

[getouth]

You will hate yourself when it is gone!

[Manimal]

Yeah it fits, you just need to move the center bearing support 4" backwards or make a new one which can be done with out any welding. Tinkwithanr on the faq has the mounts and bolted the ds up, that's how I found out about it. I'm currently in the low cash flow area myself as is Aaron so his M20 project is stalled for a little while. There's a ds in a junk yard near me, hopefully I'll pick that up soon so progress can continue.
