Oh true, well that's good to know.

A manual box would unleash some more power no doubt

If all the mechanical parts are being kept then its just another wrecked E34 with some fancy trim so wouldn't be worth fixing at that point

It was more of a 'if i had 12k in the bank' situation rather than buying a M5 for less and having to fix it If i had won i probably would have just fixed it up and sold it to someone who appreciates it as i couldn't justify having 2 e34's.

I went high 7s and could of gone more but much more than 8 you may as well buy a straight one

Did anyone here get it. Went for 8.1k

Haha i remember this, looks like someone added a recaro as im sure it only had a recaro for the drivers side when Mark had it?.

I dont know for sure but at a guess id say late 89 to early '90, but Brent may have a better idea.

Are you able to get an RHD M30 headers the dont the earth?

hopefully whoever gets it keeps it as a m5.

Some have large ones(earlier ones i think) and some have medium(later) iirc. Ive a large in my '89 does and a '92 parts car with a med

I dont think that they are an expensive car just rare and not sold often. As much as i like them id rather turbo a 535is or do a 540i manual conversion with the change than buy one.

Most e34 lsd ive seen are around $800 mark and they they dont exactly sell fast, and its not too hard to get a 535i with one.

Im seen perfectly good M5's go from as little as 12k and a lot around the 15k mark. I wouldn't pay 10k for it myself but i think you'd need to see it in person access the damage better

I looked into it recently and like Tom said i found the only real savings were for mainly Michelin and Continental tyres.

Good thing probably because the wood trim looks wrong in E30's Didnt know M Tech badges were worth that much, i had one on my E30 rear spoiler.

Nice. Nothing beats an E34 535i for value for money.

Should be under the bonnet in the ecu box on the drivers side by the firewall. Orange relay is the fuel pump and white one is DME

I just noticed today that Turner Motorsport are now selling the E34 25mm front sway bar, this along with the 20mm Nurburgring rear is a great upgrade. Im currently using it and it gives a far more neutral car with slight over steer bias instead of the standard under steering mess For both bars it ends up being a little over $600 landed which i think would be money well spent if you own an E34 http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-20543-bm...-535i-540i.aspx http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-16594-bm...5i-540i-m5.aspx

If you going for hp numbers a M30 will be far better base to start with than a M20 ever will be

Id class it as a family car and i doubt many if any 4 cylinder family cars making 450nm

No idea about the suspension but its good value for the coin
