e53 4.6is rolling body- NOW PARTING

[Gaz 1042]

Picked up yet another blue bmw to add to the stables. I'll be keeping the engine but seeing if there was anyone interested in the rest? If not I'll part it out. It has an air suspension control fault. It has a new ride height sensor, and height control module but fault still remains. Compressor works but there is a CANBUS network error. I gave up as i only bought this for the engine. Gearbox shifts well. Test drives welcome and viewing recommended. Paint is below par. Looking for $2000 otherwise will strip for parts. Will need time to pull the engine

Now parting - almost all interior is gone. Still have all the control units etc - $50 each

Towbar kit - $200

Doors $50

Lights $50 each

Bumpers $100

Wheels - $800

Doesn't have the sub in the back by any chance?

Also might be in need of a driver side mirror if it isn't knackered.

No sub sorry. The chromatic has gone on the driver's mirror but rest of it is ok

Now parting this out - will update the first post. Pretty all the interior is gone bar the steering wheel, indicator and light switches.

Just being curious, what are you going to use the engine for?

 

[Gaz 1042]

I'll probably regret it but swapping it into my e36 touring

Can't regret a V8 swap! Nice one.

I won't regret the end product, just all pain to get there 😆

No regrets on projects mate. Look forward to hearing about it.

I was thinking about dropping in a m62tub44 into an e36 hatch. Any idea level of work that would go into it?

Quite a bit. Main stuff is sump and oil pump placement of which there are 2 off the shelf kits which solves that. Need to move/delete ABS unit, front sway bar, modified steering shaft, exhaust manifolds. And other general engine conversion type stuff. Should be fun
