E30 Mtech 1 M50B25, Parting out

Recommended Posts

Parting out my project -

1985 Mtech 1 E30. Uk import 323 sport. $$$$$$ spent over christmas 2010. Receipts can be provided.

You will not be dissapointed with parts, lots of new gaskets/bolts/nuts etc used, and most parts given a tickle up only a few months ago, so will literally bolt on with little hassle, cleaning or $ to pretty up. All mounts etc were new 6 months ago, literally every lock nut in the car was replaced :P

No time wasters or dreamers, no money no part :D Car will start to be parted next week, if you want your name on something, 25% deposit required.

Cheers guys will get on to the PM's and phone calls now.

A number of people want combos and multiple bits. Can be done, its gonna require a few sorry's but sold though. End of the day its gonna have to come down to first with cash, as well as first to pick up.

It'll likely start to be parted on monday, maybe later in the week depends on workload in the shop. What isnt sold will be stored, if you can pick it up/pay quickly, it'll save me the hassle of storage so you'll go up the list :D

It sucks to do this, it was my baby for 4 years, but is becoming too much of a money/time/energy pit. Having to pull it all apart again to do the head gasket broke the camels back. Im busy as feck at work, and am off to the states in september (Got a Challenger RT hire car though :D ), so really dont have time to screw around with it.

Sam@TMBMW -

Steering rack seems fine, no noticeable play, its armstrong model BTW. The rod ends were done in december, Ill throw in the coloumn with 3 month old flexbush if ya want it :D

Not sure if I have a pic of the cross member, its a standard one, with the LHS Raised ~40mm (memory) using a welded sheet steel "box". Supports the gearbox properly with the different angle the M50 sits on. The rubber mounts were new genuine BMW E21 ones in december. Theyre are larger and stiffer than the stock E30 ones, but have slightly larger threads (requires a minor wipe with a file to where they slot into box)

Anyone interested in the shell? with lots of stuff still on it.

Dropped some prices in original post,

Cant beleive wheels/tyres/gearbox/recaros and swaybars remain un claimed :D

Pictures of recaros?

Theyve got a few little rips and tears around the bolsters (I glued the foam back together inside), not suitable for a concours car, but they arent a skanky mess either.

Theyre on NZKW mounts - http://www.nzkw.com/index.php?main_page=pr...products_id=277

With sliding rails as well. The mounting for the seats was ~$400 for the pair new 6 months ago. I bought the seats 2nd hand off APT awhile ago for ~$350.

Forgot to mention, the gearbox has a new slave cylinder on it. Input, ouput, and shifter seals are new.

Z3 gearstick includes faux leather boot with M stitching :P

M50 includes a bunch of extra gaskets/orings etc (just went and found them all 5 min ago), and a spare starter. The engine could be stripped further and parted for much more money than im asking (coils/DME etc etc etc). Apart from the headgasket its very tidy, see the pics of its insides in the build thread.

Engine and box going together http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/522/pc020525large.jpg/ Rattle gun and sledge were used removing the rear subframe... Not for putting the engine together :D

And an M50'd E30 is not complete without the M3 loom covers ;)

Just dropped the E30 off at the workshop. Drove flawlessly the whole way, im gonna miss it. Sucks, its the same feeling as driving your family dog to the vet to be put down :(

At leasts its internal organs will live on in other E30's :D

Been driving a tidy low k's SW20 MR2 for the last week, was starting to like it, then I drove the bimmer again, and what an epic sack of sh*t compared to the E30, I will own another (v8 touring tickles my fancy )

Am willing to take offers on the shell, with varying degrees of completeness, save it from the scrap metal dealers. Front screen is new, all the glass is good, it is straight (but a bit rusty) and it has 3 pedals, reg and wof ;)
