Its was a friends. I was storing it for him. Its on air and has a rebuilt set of Modena's going on it. It was at the Brewhaus last year with rear wheels that were way to wide for his liking and mine.

In other news regarding this boat, I found new reference sensors for $33 each(I know not OEM), and I will be on the hunt for injectors as well. I want to get this thing running before I continue to dump endless money into something I am not even sure runs so cheap parts will be tested an applied until its road worthy.

Mr. @YoungCR Came over yesterday to help share his knowledge of the M30. Confirmed that my sensors are indeed bad and we removed them. He has an extra set but was unable to get them free from the bell housing before he stopped by. This means I will be ordering the sensors for sure and begin to wait on parts once again. 

We put the car on the lift to get the sensors out and checked out the underside for any other road bearing obstructions. Bad sway bar links and broken front springs mean I have more parts to order in the near future. On the plus side the car has an LSD and Chris also pointed out it has a vintage stereo component that may be worth something? 

Here is a picture as she sits. I keep thinking about washing/ cleaning it, but I really want to wait till it runs and drives.

Uggghh. Hush both of you. I DO NOT need more projects than I already have.

[Earl]

You have to take the struts out and replace them anyways. It involves the same steps plus two welds=P

[YoungCR]

I have $free.99 parts though. Car needs to run first haha.

2jz swap it

[Jdesign]

If anything its getting an LS swap if its got a knock.

I finally got around to ordering the reference and cranks sensors for this thing. They should be here on Thursday.*** EDIT they just showed up on my desk, nice mistake USPS*** In the meantime, I plan on taking out the injectors and soaking them. I hope to have this thing running VERY VERY soon. Fingers crossed.

It's alive!!!!!! 

It runs but its rough due to very very varnished gasoline. I already drained as much as I could trough the pump but I will have to drain the tank as well. A new filter is in order as well as all the tune up goodies and fluids now that it runs. Its crazy I went from having no cars running and driving to three cars running and driving in a matter of a few days.

3 running BMW project cars

WIBIMMERS has a new King!

Side note: John Goodman is looking a bit too much like Kim Jong-un there

You're damn right it is. Time to stock up on buffing compound and buffing wheels. 

As a matter of fact, I bought a new fuel filter, plugs, cap and rotor, air filter, and sway bar end links already today.

Awesome. Have you checked out body shop supply off of fish hatch? Finally went in there and they have everything at wholesale price and they carry Cook's stuff from over in Milwaukee. 

Ive forgotten to mention this to you too but pull the valve cover and check the oil spray bar, car needs a valve adjustment probably too. it's a common problem for M30's to starve the valve train of oil between the banjo bolts backing out and the poorly designed spray bar. Most guys do this mod to pinch the bar for better pressure.

@YoungCRReally good information to know, I will have to do that once parts start showing up. I haven't dug that far into it yet as I have only been trouble shooting the electrical gremlins. I was impressed with the fact that is doesn't leak anything yet *(knocks on wood)* so I haven't touched anything that needed a gasket.
