Gus 5 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 am using this thread to gauge some interest in my car...am semi seriously thinking of selling...am in no rush so would only sell for the right price. thought i would offer you guys first. price, asking 13k, am in no rush to sell, so see what happens. offers may be considered. anyway, heres what i have done (not including plate obviously) 1988 BMW 325i Motorsport Engine Pre FL 9.7:1 Compression engine Lumpy cam (c.288’?) Urethane Engine and Gearbox mounts 2.25†Exhaust single (DTM style tips) Fresh Head Rebuild, with valve seats recut 107rwkw at last dyno at Torque Performance, normal 325i around 90-95 Drivetrain 3.64 LSD Sport Getrag 260 Lightened Flywheel Heavy Duty BMW Clutch Bavarian Motors Short Shifter Maintenance New Fuel Pump New Slave/master clutch cylinders New Cambelt New Waterpump New gaskets All fluids new New radiator Hoses Clutch Suspension 15x7 “Basketweave†Motorsport wheels 205/55r15 Dunlop Direzza DZ101 (all new) Rear strut Brace Urethane Control Arm Bushings (powerflex) urethane diff bush (powerflex) urethane trailing arm bushes (local, stocks) Urethane Subframe Bushings Bilstein sport Dampers H&R Sport springs 33mm drop Motorsport rear 14.5mm sway Brakes Braided Stainless steel brake lines Slotted front discs, all new genuine BMW Pads discs on the others, all <5months old Interior Black Leather Black headliner Mtech 1 wheel Exterior Full Mtech 2 body kit Smoked indicators, side markers, Red Tails Black Kidney grill (can chuck in a chrome one) Tints ICE Sony Headunit Front Infinity 6.5†components can include a 12†Pioneer Sub if buyer wants 400W? Sony Amp, Lilac edition Mechanically its mint, has been maintained hardcore by myself, regularly serviced. Happy to help out the buyer in the future too (as Jock can attest!). Lots of fun on the road, Cosmetically its well loved...it has been my daily for ages, so is why im taking the paint job off a mint ones price. If you wanted it mint i would recommend repainting the front kit, rear kit, probably the bonnet and maybe the rear quarters. It is not stock standard but is much quicker than a stock 325i, does a 1:16 around puke...a wee bit slower than David Braces motorsport around the track with him on race rubber and a few suspension bits n pieces, but not much slower! wont put pics up yet at most of you know what its like, and waiting for better ones anyway have probably forgotten a few bits and pieces, so if you want to know anything, ask El Gusto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dc2r 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2007 Sounds like a mint example of a msport, btw outta curiousity, how much do basketweaves usually go for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted May 31, 2007 800-1000 for a decent set, most 2nd hand ones usually need to be refinished and re tyred...starts making sense to buy them new...i think maybe 350 a set? mine are painted graphite, as you will see when i eventually put pics up, tyres are mint. its not super mint, but nice enough and 10x cooler to drive than a stock one =D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gus 5 Report post Posted September 14, 2007 considering selling again, as i won't be using her for some time Currently the car is in storage with rego on hold, so the only thing to organise is re activate that, really easy. I won't be using it for at least a year so it doesnt really make sense to hold onto 2 e30's contact me if your interested, i can arrange viewings too. price was last around 12k, contact me with reasonable offers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gus 5 Report post Posted September 21, 2007 as my darling woman thing pointed out i am an idiot this time, its for having no pics so i provide: it actually has the mtech 2 spoiler on..looks better than that. otherwise pretty much the same and the engine bay is minus the strut brace (depending on price i might be happy to throw it in though) http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....7&hl=jungle here is my initial thread with pics, i am having trouble seeing the 3rd one, cant remember what it is, not sure if anyone else will be able to.

tibbs.james 1 Report post Posted September 21, 2007 Hells Bells Gus You have convinced me to go and get some 15" weaves them powdercaot them ! I would ask to buy yours but you would only say they come with a Free E30 ! for Lots of $$$ Looking great though somebody will be investing in a car with lots of time and effort that has gone into it.
