Moving to the west coast and have to sell her. Located in Columbus near OSU campus. Pick up only. As of last year, this was an unmolested automatic with 200k miles and a blown head gasket. I have service receipts form 2002, 2005, and 2006. I got a good deal on a wrecked '97 M3 with 170k miles and swapped the engine, transmission, radiator, exhaust, and steering rack into the e30.
Overall condition is good, but it has a few minor rust spots starting to for (pictured), and the drivers seat is torn. It runs and drives, but has a few issues (below) that will need to be addressed before it is ready for longer trips or daily driving. I would call it a 90% finished project that just needs completed.
What it has:
-H&R sport springs
-Bilstein shocks
-Eibach sway bars
-BBS RA 15" wheels
-S52 from '97 M3 (should be good for close to 270 crank hp with the
mods)
-m50 manifold swap
-3.5" maf
-bimmerworld silicone intake
-cone filter
-24lb injectors
-Conforti tuned ECU
-e34 oil pan
-ZF transmission
-e36 M3 steering rack
-relocated stock brake booster
What it still needs:
-LSD - hast the stock open diff (4.10 i believe) which is way to short for the LS tranny and shorter tires. Needs a 3.23 or something similar.
-4 wheel alignment - Has not been aligned since the suspension components were installed.
-Exhaust - The m3 exhaust was pretty rusty, but I got it hacked on there just to have something. It leaks and is held on with strap iron. I would highly recommend a full custom exhaust before driving the car much.
-wiring - I made a custom pigtail to connect the e36 and e30 harnesses, I'm no electronics expert. It's getting a check engine light and an oil light (even though oil level and pressure is fine). Also, the battery terminal block needs to be mounted, and the wiring could be tucked/routed better.
-convertible top - The fabric itself is in great shape, but the rear window is hard to see out of. It leaks (almost inevitable with an 80's convertible).
-some general detail work - I just haven't really had the time, but it could use a good engine bay degreasing, carpet cleaning, wax job, etc.
-oil leak - It may just be because I overfilled it, but I'm going to recheck the torque on all the oil pan bolts, which will hopefully take care of it.
-Cooling fan. It has been fine recently, but summer is coming.
