Hello bf.c,
Looks like I am on my way out of the e34 world once again after a little bit over 6 years of stewardship over this S50-power E34 Touring. This car is no stranger to bimmerforums. Previously owned by ltflint. Majority of the build was done by him in the nearly 10 year span of ownership.
This touring was my daily driver from late 2016 up until the end of 2020 when it got replaced by a different vehicle. Since then one of the major improvements was the windows out paint job it received in 2022.
The car is now offered on Bring-a-Trailer: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...5i-touring-10/
Exterior Color: Alpinweiss III (300) with bottom lip in granit silber (237)
Interior Color: Parchment
Engine: S50B30US
Transmission: ZF 5-speed
Differential: S3.23
The manual swap was done in 2009.
The engine was built from the ground up by Memphis Motorworks in 2012. It has roughly 65k miles on it since then. Receipts for the work are included.
The drivetrain came from a 1995 E36 M3.
The S50 has TurnerMotorsport headers (replicas), down to a stock cat, resonator and a SuperSprint rear muffler. The car is very subtle sounding.
The E34 has a M-sport front bumper, and M5 rear bumper, M side skirts (which were stock for all 95 E34s), and M-sport mirrors. Euro bumper trim.
In the bright works department - hella smileys with Xenon, clear rear and front turn signals.
The wheels are Forged 17x8 M-Systems with Throwing stars. I had the wheels powder coated in 2018 in two tones (black base and silver rim) like from the factory. Tires have about 3000 miles on them.
The suspension is Bilstein Sports on all 4 corners, with B&G front shocks, and stock non-SLS rears. The car has Moosehead UCAB, and rear strut strut mounts.
The brakes are the BBK E34 kit from 540i. I just did the pads less than 5k miles ago.
Inside, the car has a parchment leather interior, with manual sports seats. The seats were imported from the UK.
