To be clear and upfront the car does not start/run. Two rockers are broken in the head. I have another 885 head to replace it but I'm hoping to move in the next few months and I just don't see myself having the time or wanting to tow it with me. I would rather take a loss and see this car go to a good home. Odometer is at 17*,***. The motor was rebuilt ~15-20k ago by the PO shortly before I purchased it. Somewhat irrelevant as the head will be coming off anyway.
The Good:
M-Tech 1 wing
IS Lip and Splitter (lip has a crack and could definitely use new clips)
OEM Anthracite Floor Mats
Supersprint Exhaust
Maplight Mirror
US Ellipsoids
George Graves SI Board Voltmeter (I’m a dork and this is my favorite part on the entire car)
Gregs///M Ground Cables
Gregs///M SI Board
Gregs///M Hood Ground Strap (not installed)
Odometer Gears replaced
Eibach Strut Bar
Vogtland Springs (not sure how # as they were installed by PO)
Turner Chip
Sunroof/Windows work flawlessly
No lights on the Check Panel
In the past 5-10k miles the following has been replaced:
CPS
Coolant Sensors (blue and brown)
Main & Fuel Pump Relays
Oxygen Sensor (the car was running rich before the rocker snapped so this may need to be replaced)
All eccentric hardware
Fuel tank
Fuel Pump (TRE)
Fuel filter and soft lines/breather hose (this was a PITA)
Fuel Pressure Regulator
Ignition Coil
TPS
Redline Fluids in Diff and Tranny
Input shaft seal on transmission
Guibo, CSB, and Driveshaft Guide Bushing
Fan Clutch (will include fan clutch tool)
Alternator, Voltage Regulator & Belt
Hood Strut
The Bad:
Two broken rockers in the head
Typical rust in battery tray and around trunk lip
Cracked Windshield
Small crack in dash
Seam split on drivers seat (no tear in leather it’s just the stitching)
Factory Radio stopped accepted its code. No longer have the code and removed the antenna (will be included)
The It Depends:
The car does not have a catalytic converter.
Factory CD Changer but the face plate is broken (PO had attached with electrical tape and it worked fine)
No PS or AC
Wired for heated seats w/ switches but PO appears to have cut the wires. No idea if it's as simple as splicing the wires back or if there was an underlying issue.
I apologize for the dirty pictures. I had it towed to my house and it’s too far for my hose to reach. Lame but honest. The pictures I was able to take this evening aren't great but I'll snap better pictures this weekend when the weather is better. Happy to take detailed pictures of anything not shown.
I’m looking for $1750 obo. This may seem high for a non-running e30 but it’s a relatively simple fix (with a second 885 included). It’s worth a ton more as a part out but a)I don’t want the blood of a perfectly good e30 on my hands and b)my HOA wouldn’t like me tearing a car apart out front. I don’t want to have this thing sitting any longer so I’d rather take a loss and have it move on to a new owner that can restore it to its former glory. Feel free to make offers, I may say no but I’m not going to be offended by low balls. Before anyone asks I'm not interested in splitting anything at this time.
