    You buy a 135i to have a well buttoned-together performance car.

    It has already been raped beyond being well buttoned-together anymore and would be a spendy platform for a track rat compared to a cheaper more disposable/replaceable chassis.

    The world needs more N54 swapped 80's and 90's cars

        I hear the same thing, but its slowly being drowned out by the sound of the forum funding this build.

          I need a n54 in my e21.

            really wish I could convert an n54 to port injection and run a normal standalone. They are very interesting engines.

                Yes I see that, but I'm saying Completely get rid of the direct injection. That shit is just parallel to stock ecu. Only standalone ecu's that can handle the n54 direct injection are syvecs and I'm not a millionaire haha

                  I guess we all have different goals. If I were to buy a 135I, it would get a large single turbo, LSD, nice coilovers and sticky tires, and be an epic daily driver.

                    I know, just buy a port injection kit and disconnect the direction injection 😉

                    Why convert to port injection when you've already got it all figured out? But seriously, for straight line power this is all you need. The problem is, single turbo setups weren't readily available or dialed in (tunes, fuel, etc) until recently. You need to add a fuel system (port injection, upgraded LPFP) to your list, but that is pretty much my plan once my stock twins give up. Most people are fine on stock motor until 800whp+. Anything above that seems to develop a problem with headgasket, piston rings, etc.

                      Would only convert to standalone and port injection if swapping into an e30 for example, otherwise, the wiring is HEAVY on the complicated side haha. Thats why I was talking about it. Chances are slim that I would want a 135i, well maybe when I get old, or they get cheaper.

                              That things been up for sale for awhile at the same price.  Somebody will have to really love the 1M to buy this instead of forking over a few grand more for an M2.  I don't think these are investment grade yet but they definitely haven't lost any value.  Buy it, drive it for a year, sell it for the same price.

                                        Ouch, that interior looks a little rough!

                                        Good price on the car but you'd have to spend good $$ to put a nice interior in it. I want a delphin e24 too 😦
