[aztrackcar]

Selling our 1991 318 IS with M50 conversion. Built the car with my sons for track day events. The car has about 200 HP, is light and handles very well.

Car is an Arizona car with IS body kit and European headlights. Car itself has 157K Miles. Body is straight and rust free.

• Interior has been stripped with the dash remaining and a pair of Corbeau FX-Pro seats with Schroth harnesses
• 4 point roll bar

In Jan 2011 we swapped in an M50 (93/94 325is) with 96K miles.
• E34 motor mounts, oil pan oil pump and dip stick
• E36 engine mount arms, driveshaft and intake elbow

• New Behr high capacity radiator
• Spal electric cooling fan
• M3 headers to a 3in exhaust with small cat and Magnaflow muffler

• Getrag 240 5 spd manual with a 3.73 limited slip, medium case differential

• 540 brake booster and master cylinder
• Zimmerman drilled rotors with hawk street pads (I have a set of track pads as well)
• Stainless steel brake lines
• New front hub and bearing assemblies
• Ground Control coil-over suspension
• New Front control arms
• Powerflex urethane, front control and rear trailing arm bushings

• APEX 17x8 (BBSLM style) with good 235/40/17 NT-01 tires

Areas that need some attention:
Overall the paint is not bad except the roof where it is prepped for a respray. Still silver but no gloss.

Instrument cluster from a 6 cly needs to be fitted for the tach to read correctly.

Car runs cool, but the temp gauge is not registering

I have between 11K-12K into it, but need to move on and am selling it for: lowered to 6000.00

Can send as many pictures as you like.

Sweet car. I thought I'd help out by embedding the images for you below.

Any interior pictures?

Just out of curiosity, since this has had the engine swap how hard would this be to smog/register in CA? Anyone have an idea?

You have to pass the visual inspection inspection which means everything has to be either obd I or obd II compliant. This means everything from the intake manifold, to the routing of the exhaust (cat type and placement) has to be O.E.M spec. I was out in cali over the winter and went with to get a s50 m-tech II vert bar'ed and smogg'ed. It failed visual due to the cat placement/type, and failed smog due to the cats and the car having a chip. Pretty sure it went back and passed though.

Thanks for the info. Seems like this would most likely fail then. :(
