I haven't been on here in a long time and in all fairness probably should have done this years ago. I started building an M62b44 6speed swap trackday project over the last decade and have accumulated quite a lot of good bits to set up quite a weapon. As many understand on here life and priorities change and while I have dreamt of this car, it is just no longer in the cards.

So I am testing the waters on here, as I want sell it all as one project given all of the bits were designed to work together to a certain extent. So no offers for individual pieces at the moment. Here https://imgur.com/3ImAt is a pic of the car when I picked it up from the owner who cracked the head of the 2.5l he had put into it trying to make it a drift car. The body was very solid with no dents and rust and has been stored in my garage.

Here is a rough list of the bigger bits of what I have for the car. Many of the parts were ordered in the US From VAC, Turner, or UUC.

Complete M62b44 with wiring loom and six speed gearbox out of a 1998 540i.
Custom engine mounts from Germany to lower the height of the engine and place the drive train more in line.
VAC E39 540i Lightweight Aluminum Flywheel Kit, Button Style, Includes OEM M5 Clutch Kit and Hardware

Brakes: Big Brake Kit - UUC Direct Fit caliper, 11.75" rotor – will fit on 15” rims – modified Wilwood calipers

E30 J-STOCK FRONT BILSTEIN/E30 J-STOCK REAR BILSTEIN E30M3 TMS RACE SPRING / J STOCK LEGAL
https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-4076 ... available/
This suspension kit is no longer made and highly sought after.


Tons of other suspension and reinforcement bits. Including race spec "sway barbarians". Will provide more detail if there is serious interest.

Fuel system stuff, I think I have a VANOS rebuilt kit for the motor as well.

I am looking for around £7,000.

Regards,
Justin

Hi Justin,

I may well be interested in this. Just to clarify the engine/ gearbox is not fitted? The e30 comes as per picture minus the 2.5 engine?

Many thanks

Will

Sorry for not responding to people earlier, some life stuff got in the way and I had to put all of this on the back burner. Everything is still for sale and pending no interest in the whole project I will begin to part it out.

Hi JustinTime - did you sell the parts as per above? I am looking for a M20B25 engine as mine is dead - if it can come with a manual gearbox, even better! Please let me know if you still have this for sale?
Thank you.
