LOCATED IN RUST-DANGER-FREE ZONE MIAMI, FLORIDA M50 Swapped E30 325i manualBought it a couple months ago for daily driving duties and it has been an absolute riot, everyone loves it and gets awesome feedback everywhere it goes. Originally a european 1990 325i brought into Canada, the car was first registered in February of 1990 in Canada till it was brought down by its original owners in 1997 to West Palm. The car was then purchased by its previous owner before... me and received a drivetrain swap from an e36 with 97k miles. Estimated mileage now ~100,000 miles with new plugs, injectors, headers, radiator, coolant refresh, and upgraded intake. I bought the car with the swap done to it, however there were details that needed addressing when I brought it home. I since then have realigned the transmission (hence no shift boot) and the engine as the manifold was hitting the brake booster. I had a Porsche 944 brake booster installed to the vehicle to make room for the manifold and fix the brake feel of the car. I also refreshed all coolant hoses and in the first week of June had the car at SMIT auto getting a new thermostat housing installed and new reservoir tank installed as well. Since then, the car runs below half temp at all times and shows no signs of leaks anywhere of any sort of fluid from the engine. Interior wise, the car has the original comfort seats that came with it and has held up phenomenally considering its age. The dashboard has zero cracks in it and always stays covered. Blower works at all speeds and hoses are all there for AC. It also has bluetooth handsfree and aux input with good speakers. It is missing the driver's footwell cover (it had a 740 cover that got chopped to fit, I hated it so I threw it away and will source an original for its buyer upon sale). Wipers work at all speeds, blinkers work and return to position when turning, lights are wired to constantly be on during day and night (obviously turn off when car turns off, much safer) PHENOMENAL horn, you'll need that being small driving in Miami. OBC screen doesn't work however warning lights up top work and sunroof crank popped out (E30's are known for this). Driveshaft could use a rebalance, given the bushings for motor mounts and transmission are poly, the vibrations caused by it are enhanced.
