SOLD for asking price.
I've decided to sell my e30 and am going to update (notice I didn't say upgrade) to a newer car with 4 doors.
I can be reached at 801 403 6111 by text or call for more information and to answer questions.
UPDATE:
Fixed the wiper washers. Put a new control unit in and cleaned switch contact for washers.
Fixed drivers side window switch and cleaned window tracks for drivers side window.
Replaced roundel on trunk with new one.
New left front caliper and brake disc. One on there before worked, but stuck a bit.
I've had this car for about 3 years, and for a year and half of that, it sat on jackstands. When the fire under my ass finally got lit, I did the following work:
Pulled engine and inserted different healthy motor after refreshing. New motor I believe had about 120k on it.
New cam seals, rear main seal, front seal, timing belt, tensioner, pulley, water pump.
Engine runs great, will pull 80+ going up Parleys to Park City (I actually live at the top of Parleys)
New clutch, tranny input seal
New control arm bushings,
New control arm ball joints (all 4 of them, I found the long ones new in Canada)
New sway bar bushings
H&R springs
Bilstein HD shocks
All front suspension parts were cleaned, wire brushed, and painted black
Front driveshafts were taken apart, cleaned, greased, and new boots. No clicking, they are in perfect shape.
New inside and outside tie rod ends, (no play in steering)
New Ebay stainless exhaust, much quieter than the rusting pos that was on there before. (fitment isn't great, but it works fine)
New IS style lip (flat black)
New Yellow fogs, (knockoff chinese ones, work well though when it is pounding snow out)
Repainted IX weaves with all 4 center caps
See my thread on painting wheels here...http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=286161
Sport seats in FANTASTIC condition (vinyl)
Mtech 1 wheel
This past winter:
Rebuilt transfer case, swapped out the bad VC. Passes jack test with flying colors. This car kicks ass in the snow with 4 snow tires (which incidentally, I have on a set of bottle caps and will toss into the sale!)
See my tcase rebuild thread here... http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/show...=transfer+case
New seals on Tcase. I'll include some Molykote br2 (or whatever the hell the proper grease is for the output shaft.
Output shaft splines in great shape, no wear visible.
AWD is working at 100%
That is the good.
Here is the bad
No A/C. Never worked, never tried to fix it. All parts are present.
Sunroof doesn't work, Had it all pulled apart, and cleaned, but the used motor I put in only lasted a couple weeks. Mechanism is pretty smooth.
FIXED: Currently the windshield washer jets don't work, I think it is the switch on the steering column that died. FIXED
FIXED: Left window switch is intermittent, I haven't fixed it because I know the right spot to whack on the center console to make it work, should be an easy fix. FIXED
Some idiot cut out the door panels for speakers. Currently has grills over the holes.
Antenna is broken.
So a couple rough edges, but overall the car is a satisfying daily driver, especially in the winter.
Odometer doesn't work. Shows 143k on it. But really, with that many miles, it is more about how the car has been maintained that the miles on it.
Other stuff:
New Pioneer stereo with bluetooth
New Polk speakers up front
Boston Acoustic speakers in the back.
Stereo sounds very good.
Check panel works
OBC works
NO CRACKS on the Dash. Dash is like new.
This car, once the work was completed, has been supremely reliable. No breakdowns. Good reliable, car.
Makes me sad to sell this car, I have enjoyed fixing it up and driving the last year+, but with a new baby, I need 4 doors. Hell maybe even a wagon then I can fit the dog too.
