    91 318i m42 $500

    First 500 takes it. I'm finally selling my car for good.

    Quick story on how the car got to where it is now.... Headgasket blew causing the engine to overheat and warp
    the cylinder head. I bought a used motor that was said to be a turn key motor. All i had to do was fill with fluids. I did and it ran for a few mins before the valve hit the piston. Then they replaced it with another motor since i had a guarantee, I actually got to drive the car with the second motor. It ran fine for 2 weeks then shut off on me one day. I took it to a shop and they diagnosed it with cylinder 2 being dead. So they were looking for another motor for me but havent found anything for me, so im selling it.

    The car still needs work. Has a 3.93 diff.

    168,258 miles on chassis
    100k on motor that is in it.
    5 speed
    Clean title
    Registered in CA until June 08
    Passed smog with no problem


    New:
    Fan
    Fan clutch
    Radiator
    Coolant hoses
    thermostat
    timing chain
    Timing chain tensioner
    Front cover gaskets
    Valve cover gaskets
    spark plugs
    IE motor mounts (yellow poly)
    IE tranny mounts (yellow poly)
    3.0 Z4 SSk
    UUC Delrin bushing
    O2 Sensor
    Catalytic Converter
    Muffler
    Clutch
    Pressure Plate
    Pilot bearing
    Rear Main Seal

    Fairly new:
    H&R cup kit suspension 1000 miles
    Falken ziex ze512(directional) 1000 miles

    The car now has ellipsoids and euro grills. I was in the middle of trying to find black vinyl interior, so the driver side front and rear door panels are black. The black rear passenger door panel is with the car but not installed yet. I didnt find a black passenger front. You get all the tan cloth panels. It also has smoked taillights now but comes with the taillights you see in the pics

    Interior is cloth, all the seats have something wrong with them. Fronts look like a fat person sat on them and they started coming apart. Rears look like a rat was nimbling on them. I will get interior pics up by the end of the week.



    here are some pics
    Replacing chain and tensioner and lower chain guide

    Painted Valve cover and Intake and intake runners black

    Took fan shroud off before pic

    Dent on passenger door












    Old pics the but car really hasnt changed much.
    I think i covered most of it. Just ask if you want to know more.

    edit: The car is at a shop in LA right off the 710 N where it ends at valley.
