98 M3/2JZ 565whp

[trucupey]

Here is the details. I bought the 1998 m3 in 2007 in Dallas Tx. It was a single owners, rust free, bone stock, original paint silver 4 door m3. Got deployed to Iraq and sent the the car to Eshift Performance (check them out in Youtube) to do most of the work. Attached is a parts list. The turbo is a Turbonetics T72 with ceramic ball bearings. All the parts where new except the engine and gearbox. After my deployment I got the car down to Florida and pulled the motor and had Ross Engines rebuild it using forged CP pistons, arp studs, race bearings, new oilpump and a race head job. I did the tuning on it. It runs perfect. Closed loop 14.7 at part throttle and 20psi, 11.2afr, 565whp at WOT, temp needle dead in the middle, check engine light works properly and there are no codes, idles perfect, ac, ps, radio, new bilsteins, square 8.5in LTWs, AEM wide band, boost and oil pressure gauge. It has a custom built 4 plate 3.46 LSD.

It is my daily driver. Perfectly reliable. It has 17k since the build. I love the car but its time to build another one. I am selling it for $20,500 obo. This is super car performance for $20,500 obo. Best way to reach me is via email. S70driver@rocketmail.com

[5mall5nail5]

Nice man - looks good. Lean on it more, she should make a bit more @ 20 psi on a 72mm

Thanks, I know. I leaned to about 11.8 at 18 psi and made 552whp. I just keep it on the safe side for daily driving.

I looked at the pictures and when I saw the manifold my immediate thoughts were: ebay.

Funny that the receipt confirmed it! 17k of reliability ain't bad. Good luck with your sale.

Yes, it is kind of funny to have a Turbonetics T72 with ceramic ball bearings on top of a eBay manifold, but I have used them in the past with great success. This one has a few extra gussets and braces and the waste gate was relocated. It flows well, hasn't cracked, and in this particular application puts the turbo in the correct place.

I love properly done swaps. This and Rx7 ls1 are my favorite. A german influenced/developed straight six goes nicely in a E36. Any trolls and haters with BMW need to under stand that your car wouldn't work if i took everything non german out. Nice setup OP.

BUMP for a sweet ride!

It looks like the reserve was met.

Alex

If I knew $15k was in play, I might have found a use for a 3rd fair weather car. :)

16k Nice

[Jkim]

16k? wow, that's really interesting. This is making me re-think about the market for turbocharged m3's. geezzz.

Meaning you thought it would go higher?

[Jkim]

yeah much higher.

[trucupey]

Buyer never showed up. Car is still for sale. $18000. I know it went for less than that at the auction but that was the auction. I put a low reserve to try to promote bidding. Let me know if anyone is interested. As of now it is back to being my daily. Not necessarily a bad thing.:)

So, did he not pay the required down payment? What a turd. I don't understand how people can bid on things and then not follow through. I would negative rep the hell out of him.

[trucupey]

Yes, that's exactly what happened. Such is life.

[Adam Wieland]

[dgreen78]

I would jump on this if you where not on the other corner of the USA :(

[trucupey]

Just got a deposit on it and it is supposed to be picked up this Friday.

The tuning is done using the stock ecu with a Apex NEO piggyback. Works great.

Alex
