The Engine runs great, no smoke, and the car has been a 100% reliable commuter. The engine came from a running ’92 325iC and currently has around 70k miles total. The swap was done two winters ago. The new Hankooks are very sticky and the widest tire I could fit on the car. The car handles and grips like mad! The e36 M3 steering rack has transformed the steering response over the slow stock e30 rack (this is by far the best bang for the buck e30 mod!). Inka Orange is a great color and I always get asked about the car in parking lots. 100% disclosure, the paint is FAR from perfect (some orange peel and imperfections), it has some scratches, and a small fist size dent on the drives side front fender. This is not a concourse car. Comes with two ‘is’ front air dams with good fog lights. The Orange one has been scraped around and has seen better days. The extra one is solid and ready for paint. I will include some extra paint for touch up and matching purposes. I can hear a slight hum from the LF wheel bearing, but it has not gotten any worse in the last few thousand miles. Even though the clutch and throw out bearing are fairly new, the throw out bearing does make some noise. Push in the clutch, and it’s silent. The solid poly and delrin drivetrain bushings do transmit some gear noise into the car in the lower gears, but there is ZERO slop in the drive-train, very tight! Includes the 3.73 and ‘is’ clutch pack LSD diff. It must have been re-packed at some point since it still locks up really well and you can feel it in tight parking maneuvers. The car is about 98% worked out with mods and updates. Occasionally I get a CEL from the Throttle Position Sensor. If I floor it and then release the throttle, it clears. The tach sporadically works for a few days and then doesn’t work for a week. I’ll let the next caretaker figure that one out (the gauge panel was gone through, so I suspect it’s a cold solder joint). The rotors and pads are pretty new, with aggressive Porterfield street/track compound. I get some pedal pulsation from them since I don’t brake hard enough on the street. Once the pads have a little heat in them they perform very well.
