1996 BMW 318is VIN WBABE7323TEY20075 $SOLD

A bit rusty and needs some work, but it has several modifications that would make it a great track beater. Sounds about as good as the 4 cylinder can, and pulls hard enough. Would make a great rallycross car with stock springs, or keep it low and run on tarmac. Drives and doesn't need to be trailered, up to your discretion.

Modifications and "features":

-No ABS or AC.

-Corbeau Seat w/ bracket, extra Corbeau seat w/ bracket can be sold for extra $200

-Stainless steel exhaust, resonator and Borla muffler

-Stainless exhaust header

-Lightened flywheel and recently replaced clutch

-Hawk pads, not sure on compound, very aggressive

-Stainless brake lines front/rear

-Electric cooling fan

-Bilstein shocks and lowering springs

-Wheels/Tires Borbet 16" Wheels w/ Hanook Ventus RS3 (some tread left) BMW 15" wheels w/ General Altimax Arctic (decent tread, some leak)

-Extra Parts: Megan Racing adjustable upper control arms, ECU, coil pack and wires, spare tire

-May have LSD, not sure

Issues:

-Cold starts need throttle applied to keep running, runs rough until fully warm. Replaced the throttle body and IAC and it didn't improve. Runs fine when fully warm.

-Oil leak @ oil filter housing; common problem, will include new filter and gaskets to fix

-Battery drain; installed cut-off switch to address

-Windshield cracked

PMs from yahoo rarely work, but here's a tip - when you get the automated reply that the PM bounced, in its text will be the recipient's actual email address. You can just copy/paste it into a new email and send normally.

Of course engiekev provided it already, so moot point in this instance.

I'm surprised to see that the door cards aren't falling apart.
