For Sale / m42 turbo bits and many other parts

I've done some of my own research since that post and found that you are absolutely correct. It is not a swap without custom work, which is pointless considering the availability of direct upgrades. Like I said, new to the e30 so it takes time to find resources to learn about the truth. Always idiots who spread misinformation, they are in every automotive scene it seems.

No worries, it happens. Especially when learning a car thats new to you.

Does the cup kit fit an e30? I've heard of e36/e30 suspension parts being interchangeable, but I'm new to these cars.

I dont know who told you that e36 and e30 suspension parts are interchangable as they are completely different suspensions. Someone correct me if i'm wrong but i've had both and they are VERY different.

I'm open to offers on this stuff as I've found an opportunity to make a substantial upgrade in my housing situation and dont want to drag this stuff with me/could use the funds to assist with the move.

Everything being listed is in like new condition unless otherwise stated. Everything has been installed on a car and sitting for several years either in a garage or under cover. Everything is being pulled from a complete car (no interior) WILL SHIP AT BUYERS EXPENSE

(4) Bosch low impedence 660cc injectors.: $150

E46 330 front brakes: $250? I'd be happy to include the front rotors and pads but with the fact the car has been outside for a while there is surface rust on them and may not be usable. Whole setup has approx. 5k miles on it and were brand new calipers when installed and ran $650 for the whole setup when installed.

E36 318 sedan H&R cup kit with GC RSM's and stock strut hats, has approx 20k on the setup but otherwise is in great shape with no issues as at all: $300

(4) Breyton inspirations 18x8.5 e34 offset, currently painted blue with 265/35/18 Fuzion ZR1 tires mounted that have approx 5 miles on them. Tires alone ran over $650: $550 (can seperate the tires from wheels if desired)

E36 sedan shell, will be available once everything is stripped off it. Minimal damage that is isolated to the drivers doors and could be fixed easily. No accidents and otherwise very straight: $500 (I am willing to part out the shell as well, if you  just need certain panels i'll be happy to sell those as well. if nobody buys the shell its getting scrapped)

E36 m42 log style turbo manifold with required motor mount and front subframe: This setup allows a bottom mount turbo, maximum room, doesn't require you to route the charge pipe under the front subframe and tucks the turbo up above the suspension. Manifold is a t3 flange and is ceramic coated blue as well: $500

E36 m42 IE motor mounts: $50

Aluminum 28x8x3.5 straight side exit intercooler. Able to support 500whp, built by extreme intercoolers in vancouver WA: $300 (fits perfect behind e36 NON M front bumpers.)

Greddy Turbo timer: $100

Autometer gauges (Ultra lite 1's). mech fuel pressure, elec oil pressure and temp.: Best offer

Zeitronix ZT-2 Wideband o2 with display (will need a new plug for part of the wiring into the control box): $100

Holley inline 58gph inline fuel pump $50

Holley RRFPR: $50


Thanks,
Tom

After doing some research due to complaints about my asking price. I have found that cars of a similar genre (turbo cars). I have found that I had the price too high. So as a conclusion I'm going to lower the price to $10,000OBO.

Thanks,

Why not finish the project.... seems like you are very close. Get the motor in and running.   Run different wheels and you can skip the fender flares which are a huge time suck...    You can sell the stuff like the carbon hood / trunk, wheels, & HIDs to raise a bit of $$

Because to get this car to a drivable manor it would take a significant amount of money that I do no have due to taking such a large pay cut. Unless e36 offset wheels were swapped on the car is not driveable without flares. The cost of the flares or a different set of wheels WITHOUT tires are the same. then I would have to get tires. not including the cost of dyno time to get it all tuned. then comes being able to actually support the car which I cannot due to the cost of it.

That and the motor is in the car and has been for a few years.

If you are only interested in a part off the car send me a PM and PM only of the part you are interested in and your offer for it. please keep in mind that this stuff has at most (with the exception of items labeled as such) brand new and just been installed. So base your offer accordingly.
