    Ahh, he offered it to me and I told him someone from NorCal chat was looking. Glad it went to you. My only gripe was I felt it was a bit expensive. Jean was selling a full swap that had a damn near rebuilt motor for $1100 back when I first got my four door.

      Yea, I was getting tired of waiting around. I was looking for full cars to part out but this popped up and it came with the 5spd tranny. Plus gave me an excuse to have a mini vacay lol. Engine looks to be in great condition and came with some extras.

      So on an unrelated note. I still have a full euro bumper conversion sitting in the garage sans trim...but I can work out the trim situation out with someone. 700 OBO for non-locals/600 for locals

      Front/rear bumpers
      Hardware
      Euro valance
      Ill throw in my old eta lip to go with it.
      SO MUCH MORE TO DO!!

                      I am starting to feel like M30 might be the best swap option for CA.

                      I can't buy it, still rebuilding the nest egg after taking a couple months off of being an engineer, but someone should.

                        I agree.

                        That seems pricey for the miles on the motor. I would rebuilt it for sure.

                              eh, if the compression test comes out good... what would worry me is oil in the radiator, probably a BHG, but that's far easier than a full rebuild.

                                Hell no. Why would you ever want to swap in a motor with 235k miles. That is dumb.
