ECU has been cracked on those finally. EWS delete can be flashed pretty easily. Not sure about the electronic throttle business though... Aluminum block would be cool.

Any links to that?

I have seen this in person many times and felt the need to throw a match through an open window

I met this dude once before. He had a really clean E34 540 that he drifts with. I have seen him posting on facebook about the car trying to get it running. Thats about all I know.

Seems like there's been a run of these in the past few weeks. Weather gets warm and all the e36 M3s with issues come out of hibernation. Maybe the dreams of progress with project cars over the winter hits reality and folks want out? Anyway, gives Snap assorted options to look through.

Ive made offers on 2 of them but the owners were holding onto them for other buyers. The miles and overheating are a deal killer for me but thanks for posting it!

Getting rid of overrun fuel cut is apparently the first thing any serious tuner does, but honestly I didn't make it too far into this monster-thread. Google Drive link in the first post has the goods.

That price is pretty good considering the 6-speed too. It would probably cost a lot more to build one

[Earl]

So neat=P He has good taste

Not local either, but interesting swap

rofl you honestly just never know with me. I made the decision to buy my M3 on a whim because it just so happened to be the exact option set I wanted and was impossibly clean. 

My 325 is completely refreshed now with vanos, H&R springs, control arms, half shafts, and new coolant tank. With no rust I think I could sell it pretty easily. 

$8500 is unfortunately more than the car is worth but the market dictates someone will pay $8500 most likely because wagon fanatics will pay stupid money for an MT 540

contradiction much?

i wouldn't pay 8500 for it, but i think its worth that.
