SOLD - 1986 E30 325i 2-Door

Recommended Posts

NZ New 2-Door BMW E30 325i

180,433km.

WOF expired 3 August 2022.

Rego expired 1 June 2022, and is on hold.

Interior in excellent condition.

Getrag 260 gearbox, fitted with short shifter.

3.64 ratio diff.

Tinted windows.

Alpine stereo with Sherwood speakers.  Comes with additional wiring supplied but not fitted for hands free microphone and auxiliary devices.

Manual sunroof.

Electric front windows.

Pop-out rear windows.

Air conditioning fitted but not operational.  I have not investigated what is required to get it going.

Textured plastic dash cap is fitted on top of cracked dash.

No rust.

No diff, gearbox, engine, steering oil leaks.

The pictures don't show it but the paint is starting to fade. No clear coat pealing.

 

Engine

2.8 litre, managed by MegaSquirt fuel injection.

Ported aftermarket head.

288 Shrick camshaft. Quite a lumpy idle.

12:1 compression ratio which means car has been tuned on BP 98 octane fuel.  I would not use lower octane fuel if you want this engine to last.

Engine revs incredibly quickly, has incredible torque, and is a lot quicker than the standard M20B25.

Engine professionally built.  I do not know by who.  Unsure of km on new engine as previous owner had it built, at a reported cost of $12,000.

Extractors.

Large twin exhaust.  Not obnoxiously loud.

Electric radiator fan replaces mechanical fan.

Newly machined flywheel, and new heavy-duty clutch fitted.

 

Suspension

Bilstein B8 shock absorbers.

Jamex springs.

Solid rubber lower control arm bushes.

Factory fitted rear sway bar.

Adjustable rear castor.

Replaced: diff oil, gearbox oil, engine oil and filter at 179,426km, rocker cover gasket and camshaft plugs, coolant, cam belt at 179,426km, front engine oil seals/o-rings and gaskets, thermostat, radiator expansion tank and level sensor, wiper blades, fuel filter, bonnet insulation, clutch master cylinder reservoir, brake fluid, brake booster, oil return tube o-rings and intake/cylinder heads gaskets, rear sway bar drop links, 8x seat gas struts, clutch master and slave cylinders, driver seat belt with new one.

Wheel alignment.

Car does not come with the basketweave wheels pictured.  Car will come with refurbished bottle cap wheels fitted with warrantable tyres (the wheels and tyres it got its warrant of fitness with).

The fuel economy gauge does not work because it’s no longer running the factory ECU.  The engine no longer is fitted with an oil level sensor.  Not sure why, perhaps the engine has a windage tray or crank scraper which interfered with this.  Have to go old school and use the engine dip stick if you want to know the engine oil level.  Hasn’t used oil since I have been driving the car.

I stopped using the car when the clutch started slipping, which has now been replaced. The car has been sitting about a year. I think the brake calipers need servicing because the brakes are pretty weak now. I can’t see any reason why the car won’t get a WOF when this is addressed. The last WOF was from Coombes and Johnston BMW. I don’t have time for it at the moment.

$16,000 takes it away. No trades or deals. Test pilots will not be tolerated.

Car is in Whatawhata/Hamilton.
