FS: '92 M-Technic II Turbo Hardtop-Vert

[M3 Ryan]

Hey guys-
As hard as this is for me to do, I'm selling my car. I recently started a new business and need the money to get on my feet. I now have 3 cars and don't get to drive them as much as I would like to, so the vert just has to go.
This car was featured in EuroTuner in January this year. See full article here: EuroTuner Jan 2008.
This car is highly modified and very fast. Dyno'd at 305rwhp before I went to full spark control on MS. It is currently running MS for spark and fuel with the stock wiring harness.
All mods can be seen in the article. I have more pics of everything here: http://ryan.tobinhosting.com/MTech2

I am asking $18k/obo.
The car will come with everything I have for it, including but not limited to:
spare turbo with ceramic jet hot coating (never installed)
painted hardtop (needs headliner)
new set of DPI gauges (boost, oil temp, oil pressure)
spare 885 cyl head
3 MSD Blaster coils for wasted spark (MS is built to use these, but they are not installed)
There are other spares that come with it that I can't think of at the moment. The car runs and drives well, but doesn't have an IAC so warm-up takes a few minutes to stabilize. Starts on first crank and runs hard. Currently running 13psi of boost, the car is very fast. Please e-mail me at ryangmw@gmail.com if you need more info or want to come see the car in person.





Thanks for looking!

Sorry to hear it man, but such is the price of future success, right? Your car is beautiful and is an inspiration to all of us who own cabrios. :D

BTW, I'm sure the car won't pass smog. Any ideas on how to get around that in CA?

No it is not smog legal in CA. I would prefer to sell the car out of state, but we can work something out for a CA buyer (return car to stock for smog).

^^^^^^
I'm hope it will pass smog. Ryan is very meticulous with everything he does so I doubt he let something like California smog become an issue with this car. He may have to tune it down to pass smog but I doubt it will be a problem.


I can't believe it Ryan!!

I hope you get every penny you're asking for it because its worth it. Your car's journey has been legendary. Beautiful car with a great owner. I hope all is well and all goes well with your future ventures. I may have to stop by sometime and see it. My company just got a new contract for San fransisco so I will be up there about once a month for servicing and repair.

Good luck with everything bro.

Free well earned bump.

There is no way you could pass visual...let alone the actual emissions test.

Good luck with the sale. My favorite vert.

Wow someone is going to get a really nice car here. GL with the sale

Good luck with the sale. My favorite vert.

I had tuned it to pass the tailpipe test back in november and it DID pass. It will never pass visual as turbo kits are not legal in CA unless you have a CARB legal kit, which there are none for an E30 (save for the uber-rare dinan kits).
Thanks for the support guys!

[Pull_Addict]

Speaking of dinan turbo kits... care to donate those wheels to mine... :).

This is a Factory M-Technic 2 "Appearance Package" car. I converted to black interior (it was lotus white), swapped in the 5spd (it was an auto) and shaved the side markers on the front. The rear is a new factory euro m-tech2 bumper. This car is exceptionally clean. I have driven it for just 7k miles since the engine was rebuilt and the turbo was done. I hate to see it go, but its time to move on.

who fuckin cares if its after market mtech2 or original??? i would be game if this was in canada.
