    FS: 87 bronzit sedan M52b28 $2.5k obo, bad headgasket

    First thing first:

    Asking $3000
    Located in Lynnwood currently.
    Send me a PM.


    I've owned the car about 5 years, swapped the motor and drove it for 2.5 yrs on the swap. That motor met its end from the camshaft retaining caps either broke, snapped a stud, or were finger loose. (Previous owner swapped in M3 cams) I didn't trust that the cam shaft bearing bridge or the camshaft itself weren't damaged so I decided to yank out the motor and drop a different donor in.



    I just finished up doing that swap, got it running, bled the system and took it for a short test drive. The motor was running well, sounded great, but then unfortunately, a plume of white smoke indicating a blown head gasket came shortly into the test drive. Now I'm over it. My love hate relationship with the car is solidly in the hate spectrum and I'm done with it. I've wasted too much of my time, and inconvenienced my wife too much at this point to make it live again.

    So now it's up for sale. I've done a number of tasteful modifications to it over the years, so it would be a great car to part out, or make live again. It's an '87 Bronzit Sedan.











    It did suffer some minor nose damage as can be seen. The hood has since been bent back so a new kidney grill can be fitted, but currently doesn't have one. The rest of the body is pretty straight and clean, albeit in need of a paint job.

    See below for the notable pieces:
    H&R lowering springs
    Bilstein sports
    Control arms
    M tech I steering wheel
    ZHP Weighted shift knob
    3.46 limited slip diff
    Remanufactured driveshaft (mesa performance)
    e36 steering rack
    Crack free dash

    Newer battery (October)
    Brake pads and rotors Brembo discs, Pagid pads (front installed w/ less than 5k mi, rear pads and rotor brand new, yet to be installed)
    ellipsoid headlights (some adjustment screws broken)
    Plenty of tread on tires (bottle caps)

    -Modified engine harness (no AC)
    -Adapter harness between engine and body
