It allegedly runs, but it the guy "ran out of time" and has had it for sale for over a year with "only the coolant system needs to be hooked up."
So, if it does in fact run, which is doubtful, it's probably not very well.
If your e30 runs bad, switch to Megasquirt first. Then try new spark plugs, cap and rotor, wires, oxygen sensor, crank shaft position sensor, coolant temp sensor, air flow meter, idle control valve, throttle position sensor, digital motor electronics unit, harmonic balancer, fuel injectors, engine harness...
Love your post. Totally agree.
A customer of mine brought me a similar setup but it wouldn't run.
Got it running but I'm curious as to what ECU, TPS, AFM to use to make it run good. I was thinking stock 325e.
Idles ok Very jerky coming off idle. Needs to be floored then let off to drive.
Engine is a 2.7 block, 2.5 head, intake from left side of a V12, Headers with one O2 sensor
Has a 635 AFM, V-12 TPS, 535 ECU
I know this thread is old but just saw it and thought I'de ask.

get a b25 harness and pnp MS, forget about screweing around with the garbage stock ecus and crappy AFM, thottle switch etc
BMW E30 325is M20B33 in the making....... ITB's, roller rockers and stroked to the hilt
Thanks.
Have you done this build?
Any idea were i could get the harness etc.?
you are going to have to hit junkyards or ebay for the harness. and they are hard to find since all the engine swap guys were cutting the ends off to put e36 motors in the cars. they are normally missing the main plug to the c101 connector or are over 200 bucks on ebay, if they are there
No e30s again.
