e30 m30b35

Recommended Posts

Hey guys just wondering if i should either sale my e30 for a cheap price say 1,000k as the engine overheats when stationary (dont think fan works) the enigne has a slight tick odometre stopped in 2010 and sometimes when its cold the gearbox will stay in its lowest gear until you rev it to around 6.5rpm. The car is extremely striaght sunroof works mint interior etc real nice fresh wof should i part or sell cheap what you reckn any takers?

$1000 seems reasonable from what i can see but thats a 155kw motor and they aren't id call rare.

Just put a b35 radiator in and/or get the fan working. Fix the gearbox or convert it. and you have a sweet E30.

Yeah dollar reverse a good idea, so you reckn just sell it whole and not bother parting out? I havn't seen many e30's with a m30b35 in it so in that sense it is quite rare. Just over the car aye not what I want anymore. Parting out would most likely take awhile but if i can't get over 1.2k for it il just part her

Looks mint, can't be that hard to resolve those minor issues...

Has it got a cert for the M30 conversion?

Same thing happened to my old gearbox. Eventually it gets harder and harder to get out of 1st and will need replacing completely.

Do you have an updated trademe link?

What about putting a japan engine in her? could chuck one in for slightly more than what it would cost to change the m30b35 to manual haha

Sell it to someone else who wants an m30 e30, obviously someone has done the hard work why engine swap an already swapped e30?

Sell it and buy something else, You always seem to change your mind as soon as you buy something.

parting it out could be a gamble mate,

the fact that the motor is getting hot will put people off buying the engine, the gearbox is most likely no good, which leaves you with not a lot

get the head gasket checked and fit an electric fan, hopefully that sorts that heating issue,

this car could have the potential to be something pretty exciting , especiall y if converted to manual,

or someone may want to take on this project , and then sell complete

but that's for you to decide

cheers
