Title: 1991 318i- 5 speed
Post by: JohnHenryE30 on March 18, 2012, 10:21:24 PM
As it is, anyone can purchase this, but I'm dropping a low mileage M42B18 back in now after a few weeks offering a low price sale... Current asking price will be best offer. Higher than before, especially after I get her up and running.

Last updated edit:
Current price 1991 BMW 318i,5speed,stock set of wheels and ones on it with 93k engine in bay, complete car with clean clear title--- $600.00 USD. It has minor things left before finished... I'm leaving town for work purposes till the end of the week, so this is my offer as stands untill I get back on it.

Sheesh!  I wish you were closer.  How much for the lower mileage M42 by itself?

Original engine pulled.
I have a great idea on price(best deal for a clean/rust free/straight car and a couple extras) for a serious buyer who understands where the car is located and willing to travel to obtain it. Or pay the steep fee for shipping... I believe these fit inside semi trailers.

I know its a pain  getting into someones project sometimes... I have not disrupted the air conditioner, just made minor cuts inside firewall for the 3" down pipe to fit good. Battery already located in the trunk. I am leaning on sell to sell at this time after purchasing a truck for my business today. So I will give this one final attempt to make it worth another E30 lovers while----> traveling to get it.



This car has functional/fine operating 5 speed transmission and 4:10 gear ratio in the rear.

Wish I was closer.  Shipping has gotten to be very expensive all of a sudden.

I recommend renting a u-haul, and bring a trailer or tire dolly. Not that much in gas considering the stainless stuff is close to $1000 value, the injectors cost me $200, turbo stainless header ran me $400 the newer m42 with 93 k ran $475 plus $275 shipping for me, and the clean E30 with two sets of wheels-stock new tires- aftermarket some curb rash, the original m42 still function-able with intake back on it and profile gasket changed...  all stock parts exhaust, radiator, ignition, and car with clean title for $1000 cash to me.

Close to Lubbock Texas--- zip code 79313 actual location.

I was going to use the lesser mileage newer m42 until I had interference with the oil pan and the cross member... Never went further on it, maybe the oil pans are switchable after the pick-up line"guts" in the bottom of each oil pan are swapped... I have options...

I hate the discouragement developed through details learned with my turbo-charging dream, but if still owned long enough, I will get an engine back in it(n/a), keep it, or re-post at a higher asking price.

I may be interested in some of the turbo things but i think im a little confused. Are yoou trying to sell everything as a whole or are you parting out?

Was gonna sell within the last few weeks: 2 m42b18 engines, clean car-5speed 1991 BMW 318i with 4:10 ratio in differential, and clean title... at that time the original running engine was one of the two included but pulled out for my turbo dream. As it is now, I am on it like a Hawk, and putting the 93k 1993 BMW m42b18 engine in-mounted it in today. Originally offered some turbo goodies to convince any buyers to step up.... a lot of talk but no-one stepped up.
I have over $2000 dollars in Grade A turbo things still all new never used... I may be open to sell all as a package, but intended of holding all for use on a vehicle in the future, if not continue boosting this E30 I got.

Not looking to part out.

thanks man, you rock on everything you do! Free bump


Well thank you kindly Ad-man!:D
Ill sell it if someone's fair to me on price, still less than what I have expended.

Got the starter in, and most of the wire harness. Still have the alternator, A/C, radiator, exhaust, ignition coil, windshield washer fluid reservoir, and the fuel pump...
