    1988 BMW 325is S52 $8,500 obo Durham NC

    **Price changed to $6,500 **

    I have been sitting on this project for too long now and don’t see it getting finished fast enough to justify holding on to it, so the time has come to let it go. 9/87 build date 325isA body that has been stripped down for a track car, with a ’97 S52 swapped in (120K on the motor). Reliability was the top concern while building the car, and many items were replaced with new parts and hardware to achieve this goal. I have run the car at a few AX’s just to do some shake downs and so far everything has run very smoothly. It just needs someone who wants to finish what I don’t have time to, and it will make a great track toy or GTS racer.

    The Good Stuff:
    Fuel System – tank was cleaned and relined, all fuel lines replaced, new pump, and filter
    Brakes – ix booster, new E36 M3 master cylinder, new SS lines, calipers rebuilt,
    Clutch System – everything has been replaced with new stock parts, and a SS flex line
    OBD2 tune from TRM, putting down 240 hp / 245 lbft on the ground
    ZF Gearbox, vorshlag tranny mounts, new CSB, 4.10 LSD (still needs a better diff)
    Solid motor mounts, reinforced front subframe, M50 manifold with OBD1 throttle body, and silicone intake boot.
    Ebay headers with straight pipes into a single magnaflow at the rear end, custom hangers done by Technica Motorsports.
    All wiring has been trimmed down removing anything not needed.
    New tie rods, FLCA’s, and treehouse FLCA bushings.
    Gauges for water temp, oil temp, and oil pressure
    Stewart water pump. Oil pump nut has been safety wired , E36 328 Steering rack.




    The Bad Stuff:
    Needs a cage & safety equipment to meet your needs
    No glass
    Handful of small and medium dents, but the body is very clean and rust free
    Still on the factory suspension
    The Diff should be swapped out to something in the 3.25-3.45 ballpark


    Please email me with any questions, I have a handful of very random spare parts for the car that will be included, and a traq mate that I would sell with the car. I am open to reasonable offers.

    Thank you
    Matt

    Was this originally alpine? Why'd you pain it orange? (Not thread crapping)

        yup over the top college fan, and when its your toy why not go all out 8-)

        as time goes on i will strongly consider painting the car a normal color
        (and it was originally red )

        Also the price is flexible, don't be afraid to make me an offer, all i can do is say no.
        (also considering a trade for an NA miata + cash)
