Trying to move this car, I found a 4runner I want, so the time has come.
1991 Brilliantrot 318is
lsd, crank sunroof, power windows
~200k mile, broken odo this spring (according to po)
Motor:
Every seal from hg up replaced in October, oem hg, vr gaskets
(hg wasn't actually blown, ended up being a worn coolant hose causing mild overheating)
oem head bolts, new exhaust studs and nuts
New thermostat and water pump
New coolant hoses
fresh spark plugs, oil, and coolant
The motor still has all of it's original cross hatching in the block, this motor is in pretty stellar mechanical condition
Suspension:
Ground control coil overs
GC camber plates
Garagistic front strut brace
Coil overs ride good, no squeaks. I drive it from Yakima to Seattle quite often, even my 60 year old dad finds it bearable.
Brakes/wheels:
15x8 trm motorsport wheels ~3k miles on them, super lightweight, makes a noticeable difference in acceleration and handling
225 Kuhmo Ecsta AST, same mileage as the wheels. I was pretty impressed with how well these handled. It was a surprise to me.
Garagistic braided brake lines, i have a matching clutch line i could throw in as well
Brembo rotors and Bosch pads all around. (actually rear set might be on the shelf in my garage, but they will be included for sure)
Cons:
wear on drivers seat
broken speedo
black rear bumper, no cracks in it, idk why it's painted black
damage on rear passenger qp below taillight
mismatched front fenders one is zinno red, other one is a German
no is spoiler, I could source one for you if you're interested
loud exhaust, not unbearable. It sounds very much like an m3 (s14)
That's about it. I daily drive it and it's been plenty reliable. It handles like a Miata but you won't ever be questioned where you dress hair at. It's a fun car and I really love it, but it's time for me to take a break from BMW's. I think that 3k is a hell of a deal for this rare of a car, but you could shoot me an offer and I'd consider it. Pretty firm at 3k though. I'll see if I can't get some pics of, but I hate flicker so I might just link a cl ad. Or you could text me for pics. I had this car at e30 picnic and a 4 year old told me it was his favorite car there, so there's that lol.
