I bought a wrecked E30 last Summer, shortly after building and selling a Spec E30 racer. I have decided to sell off everything, rather than warehouse it anymore…I’m running out of space!!
I had the motor/trans. listed in the Classifieds this Summer with NO takers and some discussion board members advised that I create a post in the forums rather than depend on the Classifieds, so here goes:
I have a COMPLETE motor, running when removed, on a stand in my garage, awaiting a leak down test to assess condition…just have to get off my lazy duff and do it. Motor is complete from MAF to exhaust manifold, alternator/starter/F.I./oil cooler & lines included.
I also have a 5 spd. transmission from the same car. P.O. says transmission worked fine. Survey says these are tough gear boxes and while I can guarantee it’s in good working condition, I cannot guarantee the longevity with track use.
If you are planning to upgrade to the Spec E30 exhaust, I have a set of down pipes in PERFECT condition, with O2 sensor/harness…just trim to the length needed and clamp 'em up to the new exhaust system. Bellows on the front pipe are not corroded/rusted or cracked.
When I separated the transmission from the motor last week, what the P.O. told me about the clutch rang true - it is a NEW unit, with about a month’s use on it per P.O. I removed it and it does appear in new condition with very little wear on the disc…so I’ll give you a deal on it when compared to new prices.
The driveshaft in the car had been reconditioned a few years back. It is in great condition with new U-joints, a “fresh” balance and is inscribed/stamped by the reconditioning facility with the date serviced, I will list the date later as I cannot recall at the moment. I would install new Guibos before track use, no matter what. P.O. says he would send me the receipts to the car, one of them being for the driveshaft, I never pursued his offer.
Last item of value is a new factory cat-back exhaust system. This unit is still painted in flat black by the manufacturer and has the labels still on the muffler can. P.O. says it was replaced when the clutch was…so it appears it was in use for about a month. For some reason the pipes were cut just aft of the catalytic converter, and just forward of it as the P.O. sold the converter to someone at a shop…could’ve just unbolted the damn thing!! Anyway, I have another exhaust system that I cut off the front section to use with this system…just weld together and you have a new exhaust system for your street E30.
I will take any reasonable offer on these items. I just want to clear out the clutter in my garage and shop area…moving in a new project. :woohoo:
I also have some items left over from the Spec E30 build last Spring…a sunroof panel in great cond., seats, door panels (4dr.), radiator fan shroud, misc. buttons/switches, etc.
I will be at the remaining NASA Mid-Atlantic events this year (both at Summit Point) and will be happy to bring any of these items to the track for delivery.
