bravo 35 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 Saw a red '87 325 with mteck kit, lsd, other sundry mods and SUPERCHARGER! Asking $12500! I've txt'd the owner with my email, so will post details when I have them - keep it in mind. Actually considering it myself, but overseas holiday may preclude me having the funds...

m325i 709 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 (edited) Man that with a set of mean wheels, that could be one of the best looking e30s i have seen. Does it have a dogleg? Cause i reckon you'd want one. Has anyone seen this? It looks quite good. Interior could be better. Man I'd pay $9,500 for that (starting bid). Edit. Are gearboxes a common e30 problem? At under 150kms? Im on a bit more than that, and I have felt the laxative-like wallet draining effect of melting a g/box before Edited May 23, 2005 by m325i Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tommy 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 (edited) It does look nice, Needs the big M3 snow plow front lip and some spacers for the wheels so they pump out a bit. Would look f**king mean once done tho Edited May 23, 2005 by Tommy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 While it looks like it has been well done, and is a nice looking car, to me it is all wrong. An M3 is an M3, a 325i is a 325i, easy as that. Cheers Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only reason I had to get mine rebuilt was that someone had damaged the selector shaft when changing the seal, and the only way to fix it was to rebuild it (as the selector shaft needed changing).Cheers Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gus 5 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 looks cool except for mtech 1 front...just looks so narrow compared to the rest of it! would be cool if it wasnt so $$$ m20 gearboxes are virtually indestructable....150k is nothing to worry about Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petone 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 Just doesn't look right, it needs that add on piece behind the rear windscreen. Don't really know how to describe it better than that. Mtech 1 front also kills the look a bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juzzie Wuzzie 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 I think it used to be owned by James Daniels - who totalled it into a wall in a celebrity race - and it was rebuilt. But, I could be wrong. J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMW POWER 2 Report post Posted May 29, 2005 Are E30 M3's only 4 cylinder? And why does it have a M3 badge? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tommy 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2005 yes E30 M3's are 4 cylinders 2.3 and 2.5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMW POWER 2 Report post Posted May 30, 2005 yes E30 M3's are 4 cylinders 2.3 and 2.5 Gah.. no 6 cylinder purr..But they seem mean as anyways :thumb: Why does this not make sense 2.0 6 cyl but M3 2.3 2.5 4 cyl. As far as i know 6 goes after 4 in the German language.. so no problems there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Spargo Report post Posted May 30, 2005 S14's are mean. They sound like they're about to drop a rod at idle. S14 2.3 = 215hp M20 2.5 = 170hp. Thats why emma. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
