Pofke13LT 08-30-2007, 08:34 PM dyaamn.. I want it so bad.. Only problem is I have nowhere to work on it.. how quick was it?
Mastrcruse 08-30-2007, 08:39 PM I never got to really drive it. I received it, took it off the rig and up the driveway and started taking it apart.

Domvr6 09-01-2007, 09:18 AM im in toledo, i wanna come see it today or tomorrow if possible.
Mastrcruse 09-02-2007, 01:48 PM PM'd sorry so late but I was in Auburn for the auction.
Mastrcruse 09-03-2007, 10:25 AM Going on ebay in a couple of days. Come on guys, come and get this thing.
ajs3r9 09-03-2007, 03:17 PM Do you have anymore pictures? Especially the interior, pics of the engine bay and engine. Thanks
Mastrcruse 09-03-2007, 04:48 PM Sure, I will get those for you ASAP. I will try to get them up either today or tomorrow.
Mastrcruse 09-04-2007, 08:23 PM Sorry, was a VERY busy day, I promise I will have pics by the end of the week.
ajs3r9 09-05-2007, 02:26 AM What generation M30 comes with the car? And what was used for the transmission cross brace? Thanks for the prompt updates and will be looking foward to the pics.:redspot
Mastrcruse 09-05-2007, 05:53 AM The 2nd gen motor was used, I was told it was the optimum motor for keeping stock (only 185hp with cats/ 211 without cats) but has lower compression...just in case you get the urge to turbo.
I couldn't tell you exactly what transmission cross brace was used. The swap was done already, so I took it out and everything fit good. The tranny shifted well and was in the correct placement.
ajs3r9 09-05-2007, 03:02 PM Does the custom exhaust on the car have a cat? And do you know what engine position it is mounted in or has there been any modification to the firewall?
Mastrcruse 09-05-2007, 03:51 PM The custom exhaust does have a cat on it. There was modification to the firewall, it was pounded in.
I am unsure what position it is mounted in, do you mean compared to the company that makes motor mounts for it? The motor is far back from the radiator. I want to say, I haven't seen it in the car since July, the fan was about 2-3 inches away from the radiator.
PICS tonight
Mastrcruse 09-06-2007, 06:02 PM UPDATE:
For some reason all of my pics are too big. I really am unsure how to make them smaller so for the time being, give me an email address that I can send them too.
I will upload them to a hosting site and get them on soon though but for now let me have email addresses.
Thanks

Mastrcruse 11-14-2007, 04:14 PM I have been collecting parts for the car still. I have a hounds tooth sport interior/grey carpet but don't have a rear seat. I have a new dash, crack free, to put in since the one in the car is cracked. I have fogs for it now, one has a small crack in the lens but something is better than nothing.
$800 swap/chassis (w/original interior)
$1000 swap/chassis/rebuild kits
$1100 swap/chassis/ new hounds tooth interior
$1400 swap/chassis/rebuild kits/ hounds tooth interior
post your email address and I can get pictures ASAP
Garlic 11-14-2007, 05:26 PM I wish you were closer =/ I'd be all over this.
Good luck!
Mastrcruse 11-14-2007, 07:50 PM Go up through NJ, pay the guy $1000 for his hardtop and you can have the car for the hardtop.
Saves you $400 and you get the car.
danmcn 11-18-2007, 03:50 PM Hello,
I am near Toledo, I am interested, is the BMW still available? Can you update exactly what you have available? Is there pictures?
thanks
dan
Mastrcruse 11-18-2007, 06:51 PM Hey Dan,
PM me or post up an email and I can send you pics. The car is still available and it is in Perrysburg, Ohio.
I will be home for Thanksgiving from Thursday-Saturday (around noon). If you can only make it on saturday afternoon or sunday let me know ASAP and I will drive seperately from my brother but this would be only for very serious potential buyers..gas prices suck. Let me know.
danmcn 11-18-2007, 08:23 PM email me at: dmcnamara3@woh.rr.com
thanks
dan
Mastrcruse 11-18-2007, 08:41 PM sent you an email

Mastrcruse 11-28-2007, 12:30 PM Sale will be postponed until after Christmas break. I have another month to get this thing going. http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/images/smilies/mhihi.gif
-Chassis will be delievered to the mechanic for new brake lines
-Head will be seperated and checked, if bad I'll be getting a new head from euroshark
Might be for sale as a running ready to drive car in a month so look for the new thread.
Mastrcruse 12-31-2007, 04:16 PM Alright back up.
The head is bad and I eurosharks was too. I am WAY over budget for this thing and I am sooo close to getting it done.
The new carpet/seats are installed. The block/water pump/ exhaust manifolds have been painted. I have new urethane tranny mounts, head bolts, dist. rotor for it. Still comes with rebuild kits
EVERYTHING now for $1000. Doesn't come with dash (took out cause it was nasty) and windshield. I took $400 off the price because the you will need to source a head.
Mastrcruse 01-13-2008, 04:51 PM Up $1000
