    1988 BMW 325i 24v m52 swap.

    1988 BMW e30 m52b28 swap.
    Somewhere around 222k on the body.
    No rust.
    The motor has 174k right now.
    Transmission has 112k. Fresh install with warranty last month. The transmission is a zf320 manual from an e46.
    I have had the swap completed and driving regularly for a little over 2 years now.
    Engine and transmission had all gaskets and seals replaced. I have run only high quality full synthetic fluids in every system.
    Clean title.
    Engine details
    M52b38 from a 97 328i with 174k
    M50 intake manifold swap
    Custom built 2.5 inch single exhaust. Sounds amazing, is not very loud, and it doesn't drone inside the car.
    New guibo
    New center support bearing
    M20 lightweight single mass flywheel
    New stage 1 clutch with Sachs hd pressure plate
    All new shifter components
    Uuc dssr which is really nice no shifter slop at all
    Ka motors CAI
    New injectors
    All new hoses, water pump, and thermostat
    Ac system is 100% done. Colder than new car ac.
    Running OBDII on a Markert Motorworks tune. No check engine light or codes

    Suspension details

    All new bushings throughout the chassis
    New control arms
    Brand new e36 rack and pinion with new tie rod ends
    Just completed full brake overhaul. New pads, rotors, rubber lines, fluid flush and rebuilt calipers.
    H&R oe sport springs and new spring pads
    New shocks and struts
    2.93 lsd rear differential

    Interior details

    This car has a very good interior for a e30 I would say an 8.5/10
    2010 Mazda 3 seats. Super comfy and also very supportive. Perfect for long drives and spirited driving.
    Rare black houndstooth door panels. hard to find in good condition and they look great.
    Black leather armrest rear seat
    Sport steering wheel
    Working maplight rearview mirror
    Working cruise control.
    Dash does have cracks but I have a dash cover over it
    Brand new blower motor. Works on all settings and does not squeak ever.
    Sunroof works but is kinda slow and needs help popping up. The sunroof seal looks bad but it doesn't ever leak. New seal is in the trunk.
    Rear windows don't roll down. Passenger window rolls sometimes when it wants to. Driver window just went out last week

    Exterior details

    Maaco paint job from previous owner. Maybe 7/10 recent touch up done.
    Rear bumper has a small crack in it.
    New euro smiley headlights with hid low beams.
    New mtech replica rear spoiler.
    JNC wheels with new(14k miles) tires

          Apologies for the formatting issue. That's a Tapatalk problem. I'll go back and add line breaks when I have a chance.

                              Interested. I crashed my e30 and need to start over. More details and pics would be great. I think yours is silver with a blue respray. Really just want rust free, reasonably bondo free body and a sound drive train. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
