    Clean 1992 BMW e30 convertible with m30b35 swap






    Im selling my custom built e30. Its one of the more sorted and reliable engine swapped e30's you will find for sale. The engine was swapped by a previous owner but I recently went through and fixed a lot of issues the car had. Its now a sorted car that not only looks good but drives well. Car has a long list of modifications, making it really fun to drive. This is an aggressive car, it has a loud exhaust system, stiff and low coil-over suspension, convertible top and no A/C. When the mood is right though, this car is a blast! The exhaust and intake note is awesome, there is plenty of torque/power, and responsive handling/steering. Chassis has 76k miles, engine has 140k. Asking $6500 for the car, this price is firm.

    Modifications:
    - M30B35 engine swap from a 89' e24 635CSI with approximately 140k miles
    with Mark D Chip, estimated 230 Horsepower
    - Getrag Manual transmission from an e32 735i
    - 3.73 LSD rear end
    - short throw shifter using a weighted knob and an e36 lever (really good shifter, not notchy)
    - lightened flywheel with an e34 m5 clutch (heavier pedal feel but easy to use, I never stall)
    - e36 steering rack, e30 m3 CAB's and an M-Tech II steering wheel.
    - Ground Control coilovers with Bilstein sport dampers
    - Privat Remember 16x7 BBS RS replica wheels, quality replicas made by KONIG
    - European style bumper trim, front grill, license plate and smiley headlights
    - Custom exhaust system recently built for this car, dual 2" into a single 2.5" pipe with a high flow cat, resonator, muffler and dual 3" tips. Its loud but a good kind of loud.
    - Custom mounts for an e34 pusher fan and an e24 radiator
    - Custom cold air intake with heat shield
    - Custom Front Strut tower brace and a Race Skids Lower Front Suspension Brace

    Recent Maintenance:
    (Work completed this summer)
    - Refreshed cylinder head, resurfaced head, adjusted valves
    - New head gasket with all new upper gaskets, timing cover gaskets and oil pan gasket
    - New water pump, thermostat and radiator
    - New e30 m3 CAB'S, new inner and outer ball joints, new tie rods
    - New rear wheel bearings and center driveshaft support bearing
    - Lots of other minor bits Im forgetting
    - Brand New Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport Tires
    - Brand New Bosch fuel pump

    I've owned quite a few e30's and do all the work myself. I purchased another e30 sedan for an s50 track car project so Im selling this one.

    Seth's old cabrio. I was just thinking about this car a few days ago. Glad to see it's still around and looking good. A price in your ad might help your sale. GLWS

          Had a quite clean Late model vert with M30B35 and a LSD myself 2 years ago, must say, that was the coolest car I have had, and I have owned 20 E30`s. If someone is having second thoughts on this one, then stop thinking, just buy it! GLWS!

                            Doubt it. Check out that post date.

                            I wish you could still snag these cars this cheap. Seems like just yesterday.

                              available?

                              Hey, I know this was posted a while ago but I wanted to see if it was still for sale. Would be very interested in coming out to get it.

                              Thanks,
