    1998 BMW M3 with LS3 Swap for Sale

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

    Selling my 1998 BMW M3 with LS3 swap and 6 Speed T56 transmission.

    $19,900

    Car is located in Irvine California.

    Wife just gave me permission to pick up a Z06 Vette and while I love my car, I always wanted a Z06.

    Fully story of the car and the build is in my signature, I am hiding nothing, you can see the full build from stock. I've had the car for about a year. It currently has 119K miles on the chassis and only 1K on a freshly built LS3. I had a LS1 in it first, but had a valvetrain failure so the motor was pulled and I built the new LS3. I have over 30K in the car as it sits right now. On the last dyno session it put down 455whp and 435wtq. It stupid fast, it destroys my buddies E92 M3 with a supercharger that puts down 490whp.

    The entire suspension was replaced, every bushing and all balljoints.

    Only issues with the car are driver door lock solenoid sometimes doesnt work. It opens and closes with a key just fine. I also lost the remote control, so it only has a manual key. The Alarm is installed and functional just need the fob.

    Mod List


    Engine:

    LS3 shortblock
    LS3 heads
    LS3 ported Intake manifold
    LS3 Injectors and rail

    Bump for a sweet ride!
    I did a LS1 swap on a FD RX7 in 2003... One of the saddest days of my life was letting that car go.

    Bump for the cleanest Alpine White swap I've ever seen. Wow. I wish I had the money right now.

    Just saw the car this afternoon on behalf of another member on the east coast.. whether he buys it or not is up to him but I must say the car is everything it is represented to be! One may even say he's underselling it in his description; it's a very clean no nonsense car and exactly as described. Kaane is a really nice guy who knows his stuff. This car was definitely gone through with a fine tooth comb, and it handles the power quite well. It is a BEAST of a car too- this thing flat out hauls ass. One of the fastest E36's out there no doubt..

    Any emissions complications (being a bmw with GM motor)? Chassis all reinforced?

    Lastly, did you get the vorshalg LS-x conversion kit?

    The post says what kit I used. New Age Hotrods.

    For emission info PM me. Front subframe has been reinforced around the motor mounts. The rear is stock with new poly bushings.
