I am eventually going to sell everything on my car, but I want to start with the motor itself. It is currently in my e30 and wired for an '88 325, but does not have the oil level sender in it. I assure you this motor has had 10 oil changes since I've rebuilt it. I would go so long without driving the darn thing that I would just put fresh oil in it and drive it for a few weeks. There is nothing wrong with the motor, it runs a little rich because of the turner chip i have running it, but runs super strong.
I originally bought the motor on eBay in 2006, and started my venture with the swap, it took me months to complete the swap, and once i had finally gotten it done, i drove it for about a month and was showing off for my cousin and over revved the motor, dropping a valve and slapping a few pistons. SO I had to take the motor out and wait a few more months for it to be rebuilt with new pistons, bearing, rings, valves, a new vanos cuz it was broken, and everything else that goes with a rebuild. With the $4000 to get to my house on eBay and the $6500 to have it rebuilt, I was in crazy debt. The motor alone has cost me over $10000 not to mention all the other goodies i have slapped on it. It has the TMS pulley kit on it, 24# injectors, 3.5" HFM or whatever its called, the fan delete, no ac, performance water pump, 70 degree thermostat, and an ITG air filter. Everything else like the exhaust(headers back), The Clutchmasters stage IV clutch, the JB racing lightweight flywheel, and the PWR radiator will be sold separately.
Anyways, I know its hard to believe it only has 6k miles, but after getting the rebuilt motor back in the car, I wrecked it the same night in June of 2007 and waited 6 months before getting another car/shell. This ugly shell is part of the reason I want to sell the motor. Anyways, it took me until summer of 2008 to get it back on its feet and drivable. I had another car to drive daily so i wasn't rushing myself. Then I lost my job in fall 2008 and only drove the car for about 5 months off and on since its not really daily drivable with the stage 4 clutch in it(the car wants to be driven hard) and its not really drivable in the winters here, and was in serious need of new wheels and tires. I haven't made enough money to make this car what it deserves to be, and I just don't drive it, its been sitting the last year waiting on new tires. I finally said f it and got some bottle caps so i could enjoy it again.
Well now I'm leaving in November for the army, and its just not fair to the car or the motor to sit the next 2 years of its life. The motor deserves better than this crappy shell, don't get me wrong the suspension is pretty good on it, but the shell itself doesn't do the motor justice. And I'd like to have the car parted out before then
I would like to get half of what I have in the motor alone without all the goodies(the motor will come with all that is attached unless requested to take a few things off, which include the injectors, intake, pulleys and wiring harness.) I also have a spare harness, the e36 oil pan, or e34 oil pan, and a spare oil pan.
I will let you pick which oil pan you want, the oil pan gasket will come with the motor as well, but the spare harness will cost $120.
If you live locally, I am willing to take you for a ride to hear and feel the motor. I never got the motor tuned, and you may want to do that, but that's all on you. The ECU and chip are going to be sold separately.
