Jesus craigslist is hilarious. I'm selling my 3" conforti intake (E36). Witness the hilarity:
Chucklehead: "I'm interested in the intake what's the least you'll take ?"
Me: "Thanks for the interest! I am asking $250, what is your offer?"
Chucklehead: "Would you do $100 plus a pair of vintage 12 channel world wide range walkie talkies ? "
fuckin' craigslist.

just drop off the m42 Core to rebello with 10k ++ and get back a 260rwhp monster
If you can't play then don't dream sorry. A s54 swap is 310rwhp at 8400rpm and 10k all in.

For $10k you could also do an LSx swap and make 500whp, so your argument makes no sense. As does your attitude...

I bought a cheap ($1000) car over the weekend. (It will probably be expensive after fixing everything...)
1986 325e Lapis Blue.
202K miles with broken odometer
Salvage title. And no title.
Automatic transmission with oil everywhere on the engine.
Some small dents on the hood and door dings on sides.
First thing is to get a brake and light inspection. Does anyone have a favorite place to get this done?
I need to check reverse lights, and there is a brake light on the dash. I have to figure out if it is brakes, or wear sensor.
After that I need to figure out how to smog it. Previous owner said in needs a cat. Car smoked under load going over Altamont pass.
Then I can start moving parts from my 325is.
The insurance adjuster came by Monday and said there should be a value by today. We'll see. I can buy the car back from insurance for $125. How much does it cost to send the remains to car heaven?
AAA can't help registering cars with a salvage title. :-( Spent ~2 hours at DMV getting paper work with my name on it.
Thanks,
Bob
