Wondering if anyone would be interested in a full M42 set up?
I'm going to be removing a full iS engine, gear box, prop shaft, 4.1 LSD, full stainless exhaust system and manifold from my iS next month and wondered if anyone is looking or thinking of doing a full conversion before I list the parts for sale separately?
The engine was rebuilt in 2011, it's been chipped and recently remapped and had a brand new stainless exhaust system and manifold last year.
This isn't a for sale thread, just to see if there would be any interest. Will be available at the end of next month.
Any Interest for a full 318iS conversion?

M42 is sought after by those using an E30 as their daily, and/or those that can't run a bigger engine for insurance cost reasons, so it should get some interest.
What for?jonny323i wrote:How much
I did hope it might be something I could sell as a package as it just makes it easier to have one sale.Brianmoooore wrote:M42 is sought after by those using an E30 as their daily, and/or those that can't run a bigger engine for insurance cost reasons, so it should get some interest.

If this is a For Sale thread, then please put some pics up and I'll move it to the For Sale section.

As said in first post not looking to have a for sale thread as the items won't be available till the end of next month. Just wanted to see if there was any interest in a full set up for iS conversion so I know what to expect when coming to sell.Grrrmachine wrote:If this is a For Sale thread, then please put some pics up and I'll move it to the For Sale section.
Would prefer not to have to sell engine, box etc.. separately
Seems to be a good bit of interest so I will advertise as a whole and advertise LSD and exhaust separate nearer to the time
