    '87 Track Car S50 Swapped and Lots More

    $9k obo

    I bought this car in 2006 as a very stock 325i and have slowly built it into a very capable track car since then. Build thread: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=161970 It has been an outstanding learning tool at the HPDEs that I've been using it for and its abilities let me surprise a lot of guys in their Porsches! I have lately been spending my track time and money on Chump racing and this beauty is just sitting in the garage. I don't have to sell it, so no reason to lowball, but I would like to let someone else enjoy it if the price is right. I'd also consider a trade for an e36 m3. Price is $10k obo

    Driveline:
    -late '95 S50 engine with approx 105,000 miles (odometer matches engine mileage)
    -TRM chipped
    -Rebuilt G260 trans by Drive-gear. about 2 or 3 years old.
    -3.25 limited slip rear end is an excellent match for the S50 and the gearing works beautifully on most autocrosses courses as well.
    -newer Spec stage 2 clutch
    -Massive sport kit brakes http://www.massivebrakes.com/brake-s...front_300x22mm
    -stainless braided brake and clutch lines
    -AKG DTM shifter

    Suspension:
    -Complete Ground-Control setup with adjustable konis, shortened housings, and camber plates
    -strut tower bars front and rear
    -UUC Swaybarbarians sway bars
    -all urethane bushings throughout (can be noisy)
    -corner balanced and aligned by Speed Syndicate in St. Pete, FL
    -TRM 15x8 wheels (available with either Continental slicks or Hankook RS3 tires)
    -e36 M3 steering rack

    Body/Chassis:
    -mileage unknown but very good condition
    -late model valences front and rear
    -paint recently buffed and reconditioned - looks nice!
    -2 Sparco bucket seats with G-Force harnesses
    -rear interior removed
    -VSR roll bar
    -front carpet is still in place and pretty beat
    -Pretty rare BBS rear heckspoiler

    Cons:
    -The wipers and headlights have recently become a bit intermittent - I'm 95% sure its a dirty contact somewhere
    -rear windows have not worked since I've owned the car
    -front and rear valences were spray painted when mounted on the car and could probably use a respray.
    -there is a slow battery drain when the car is off. It will kill a battery in about 3 days if you don't disconnect the ground wire.
    -Hood was repainted. Its not perfect, but looks 1000% better than what some of these pictures will show

    I'm sure I've left things out. Feel free to ask questions.

    Pics are in chronological order

        I remember following this cars thread for the longest time, and was even a huge inspiration of an old build I had (S50'd 86 sedan). Such a sweet car! GLWS!

              Great looking platform for racing, i do wonder if the g260 paired with a 3.25 is snappy enough for most tight auto crosses? Certainly shorter gearing would remedy that concern. Anyway, not the place i suppose for a 'for sale ad', all the best!

                I picked the 3.25 back when autocross was my main gig. It is plenty snappy! And on most courses, I'm approaching redline at the top of 2nd at the fastest parts of the courses. It honestly feels perfect. I pulled a 3.73 out to put the 3.25 in.

                      Cleaned up the headlight switch connection and they're working like new.

                              Will you consider a trade with a turbo Mini Cooper S?
