    FOR SALE - S54 / 6 Speed and E30 M3 Vert replica project

    FOR SALE - S54 / 6 Speed and E30 M3 Vert replica project

    Hey guys,

    Some financial obligations have reared their ugly heads my way (NYC rent kills me!) and so now I have to stop my E30 M3 vert project altogether.
    Currently the vert/engine/trans are at Azevedo Motorsports in Linden, NJ.
    Initially I was going to sell all 3 together but I want to give someone the option to just buy the S54 and 6 speed to swap into a different car.

    Having said that, here are the three options:

    1. S54 and 6 speed trans from 2006 M3 with 54k miles = Asking $5,900 - Tentatively sold
    2. 91’ white/black E30 Vert with S54 and 6 speed trans, with engine bay already prepped = Asking $8,500
    3. Just the vert with prepped engine bay = EDIT - $2,500

    My plan was to have Azevedo Motorsports build me a full on e30 M3 vert with the S54/6 speed, 5 lug swap, suspension and all the other mods I did to my old E30 M3.

    For those of you that don’t know, Azevedo Motorsports has worked on my M3 (Http://Joeysm3.com ) in the past. He swapped my euro S50B32 as well as eventually dropping in the S54, before I sold it 2 years ago.

    Here's a pic of the Euro S50B32 swap:



    Here's a pic of the S54 swap a few years later:



    He also built both of Vlad’s beautiful E30 M3’s.

    One being a Warsteiner rep with a Euro S50B32 and 2nd being the Ferrari Red E30 M3 rep, which I was using as a template for this build. Vlad chose to use the US S52 but having driven my m3 with the S54, the S54 was a must!


    Vlad’s Warsteiner rep build (Inspiration for my old M3) that was built by Azevedo Motorsports:

    Vlad’s Ferrari red vert build that was also built by Azevedo Motorsports:

    Pic of S54 and trans:





    Pics of the vert:











    Sadly, I just can’t justify it right now and trust me... It’s killing me. But real estate in NYC is a MotherF***er and I have to do, what I have to do.

    P.S. - Engine bay in the vert has already been prepped for paint and engine installation. No paint yet though. Who know what color the new owner will want.smile emoticon

    Please contact me directly if interested:

    Call/Text – 413-374-9481

    Cheers,

    Joey

        Comes with the original ecu which can be programmed to run in the E30 yes. Rui has all that done with the swap

          since you have experience here... how much would it cost for the shop to complete that swap?

            It deoends on what you have done, but years ago, it cost me like 2500 for the euro swap. You are best to give Rui a call at Azevedo Motorsports. He can answer those detailed questions. All of the gear is at his shop now.

              I gave the shop a call and figured I would share the motor info since it sounds like they've been answering a bunch of questions... Here's what I found out:
              • Motor and transmission are completely stock and untouched.
              • They came out of a running 2006 car
              • No compression or leakdown numbers since it came out of a running car
              • Nothing has been done to the motor
              • Includes all accessories (alternator, compressor, etc.)
              • Includes harness


              He said that he might be willing to ship it but would have to charge shop time to prepare it (drain oil, load it, etc.)

                    $2500?

                    That's a good price. Here is cali some shops charge almost 3 times that amount (yes, $11,000.00):



                    but that includes an engine (good or bad).

                    Might actually be cheaper to ship it off to Rui, especially if you consider the hassles from the followup lawsuit.

                      Last time I shipped an engine across country, it was like $500. BUt we're also talking engine and tranny.

                      I would prefer to have the buyer handle shipping. Get a quote from FreightQuote.com. They have always been super inexpensive and will pickup and drop off, wherever.

                      I will handle any shop charges for prepping the shipment for pickup.

                        Sorry I didn't catch this when I talked to the shop - Does the engine/tranny include other items from the car (gas pedal, and ECU)?
