  2. These are sold. Cant figure out of to mark them as sold.
  3. Howdy, This is way out there, but its worked for me before so I thought I'd give it another try. I am currently looking for some space to rent in the PNW, hopefully north of Seattle near Everett some where. My girl friend of 5 years and her small old pug who sleeps all day are looking for something 1-2 bed rooms and a bath hopefully with some storage or garage space for my tools and the occasional carpentry project. We don't do drugs or drink heavily, pot included and we are both quiet hard working people. I am currently in the proses of joining the Local 70 carpenters union, and the girl friend is a massage therapist. Budget is $1300/moth. We actually currently rent from a member of this forum in CA, and have for the last few years I know he wants to keep his name on the down low though. My union work and classes start in about 3-4 weeks, and ones they do I wont have time to help move the girl friend and all our stuff up from CA so I am under a little bit of a time crunch. I can also offer up my skills as a professional carpenter/handyman during my free time. If anyone knows of a space, or has something they would like to offer up you can pop me an email at jeremy q nugent at comcast dot net. Thanks so much for your time! J
  4. I had these listed ones before. Buyer never showed up because of personal matters and I gave him his deposit back. I was going to keep these for my next '02, but I am having problems with my other rides and I need the money to get my '86 Toyota truck an engine rebuild. These will need to be picked up. I wont ship. I an willing to drive a ways in CA for extra gas money. Both seats were tan and got sprayed black with Duplicolor Vinyl Spray. Its now wearing off. As these both should get a rebuild that should not be a big deal. All the hardware is there and everything works and folds. Sliders and rails are not included. Both seats have new Aardvark straps to keep you from sinking through. Drivers seat has rips on both lower and uper drivers side (left) bolsters and the foam is warn. Passengers side has no rips and all foam is intact. Ill update with more pictures. $400 for both obo. Please dont low ball me these are worth money and in good shape. I took them buy my local apolstry shop and they guy was excited about them and said they are worthy candidates for rehab. PM me or email directly to jeremy x man at comcast dot net Location: San Rafael CA USA
  5. Yeah turns out this guy is a bit of a... Well maybe not the bet person. I'm going to leave this up here anyways. Buyer be warned. But maybe something positive can still happen.
  6. I know this is technically a FS add but it's very general and it's not my add. I just had to share it. I'm not associated with this shop in any way. Have fun guys. If I was in WA I'd be taking the day off of work today. $1000 e30 and 2002 deals http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/pts/4502970641.html
  7. Im looking for a set of used turbo flares for my e30. Almost got a set at the Swap And Show in the Bay Area this year, but they sold out from under me while I made a trip to the bank Let me know what you have. Cheers J Location: San Rafael CA USA
  8. I have a set of e21 sports seats. They are old and are not perfect. Both seats are still very comfortable and I installed new webbing straps from Aardvarc Racing so your but does not fall through the seat. Seats were tan, but I sprayed them black. As they need to be reupholstered that should not be a problem. The drivers seat has rips and some damage to the bolster foam, and currently has duct tape on it. Other wise in good shape. Passengers side seat has no rips or any damage. All the seat adjustment mechanisms work fine. Sliders are broken. $200 firm. These go for $900+ plus when rebuilt. This is a great starting point for a set of refreshed e21 sports seats. Get after it Located in San Rafael CA, or SF CA. Pick up only no shipping please. Ill take some better pictures in the AM, but this is what I have now. Will bolt into a 2002, or you can fabricate some sliders for a e30 like I did. Location: San Rafael CA USA
  9. We are selling our much loved 2010 135i. This car is a real rocket ship and a pleasure to drive. We have loved every minute of owning this car, but we need to get a truck and have not been driving the 135 much lately. We bought the car used from BMW Walnut Creek. It had been used as a BMW factory driver, and we were the first private owners. This is the smallest model BMW currently sells state side besides maybe the Z4, with comparisons to the cult classic 2002 model (Hoffman kink rear window). The 135i got the large strait six twin turbo n54 engine and a automatic 6MT transmission with paddle shifters. This engine is very powerful in this small light car, and is an incredible platform for very easy power additions. The automatic six speed transmission is great for daily driving, and is fun for spirited driving when using the paddle shifters. The car currently has some very minor cosmetic modifications (dark side markers, VMR wheels, BMW OEM black grill, hand made BMW motorsport roundels, and bright white halo lights) but I still have all the original BMW parts that the car came with including the wheels/tires and other cosmetic parts. The car has NO other aftermarket modifications at all. It has been maintained at Sonnen BMW in San Rafael and has not been touched by any other mechanics. 53763 miles on the clock (mostly highway San Rafael-SF) Options: ///M Sport Package Heated seats Auto dimming mirrors Bluetooth connectivity iPod connectivity Comfort access (keyless entry and start) Moon roof Memory seat settings Garage door opener in mirror BMW SOS (like Onstar) Head light washers Electric fold in mirrors Exterior: Black Black BMW grill (still have BMW chrome grill) Electric fold in mirrors Professionally hand made classic ///M sport roundels using original BMW parts ($360) Flat black VMR V710 wheels (curb rash on both passenger side wheels, lots of tread left) Dark side marker lights (still have original lights) Bright white LED halo lights (still have original lights) Interior: Black leather Sport seats with memory settings Heated seats Aluminum trim ///M steering wheel with radio/phone controls All weather floor mats (original BMW floor mats included) Cons: Car has some slight paint damage on drivers door from kids throwing some eggs at the car Usual very small rock chips on the front of the car from driving Asking $24000 or best offer Come take a look at the car, have a fun drive and feel the power : ) I will respond quickly to serious buyers with contact info. I will send extra info or pictures on request. Cheers Jeremy jeremy x man at comcast dot net Year: 2010 Make: BMW Model: 135i Body and Interior: VMR 710 wheels 18' 8.5' 9.5' ///M Sport Package Cold Weather Package Premium Package LED white halo bulbs Smoked side indicators Engine and Drivetrain: N54 twin turbo (all stock) Steptronic transmission Suspension, Brakes: All OEM

    Very cool. I wired my last 02 with one of those easy harnes universal kits. There was nothing easy about it. Many days of head scratcjing and testing. I learned a lot. Not sure what I will do for my next car.
  12. Hey FYI, a e30 318i pump will screw right into the 2002 tank works like a charm. Glad I could help.
  13. I did a e21 rack conversion on my m20 2002, but I never really got to drive the car before I had to sell it, so I can not tell you what it feels like. I can tell you how I did it though. First off you are limited to racks that mount behind the sub frame instead of in front of it. I used a e21 manual rack which I think is 3.5 turns lock to lock. Lots of measuring and fabrication. The hardest part was getting the rack and steering shaft to line up correctly with out the universal joints binding up. I used a e30 steering shaft and column. The e21 and e30 spline are the same size and count so the joints are interchangeable. I cut and welded the pitman arms as well. e30 steering column mount Trying to figure out where the steering shaft needed to be My solution for mounting the rack to the sub frame Some other guys work Is it really worth the work? I dont think it is if you go with a e21 rack. I think it would be if you were doing a m42 or m20 swap and also switched to a e30 front sub frame like the guys at Condor Speed Shop did for their GRM 2012 Challenge car. Its a whole other leve of fabrication but then you could run power steering as well as swap in a z3 or e46 quick ratio rack. If you really wanted to do a lot of fabrication I think that would be kick ass. Not for the purist, but would make for one hell of a fun car.
  14. Its not that hard at all. I dont know why but the hardest part for me was getting right wires from the e30 engine harness to the correct terminals on the starter. I had to try a few different combinations to get the solenoid to engage and the motor to turn over. Here is the e30 c101 to 2002 chassis harness. Easy 325 Harness Function 2002 Harness #1 Blue Alternator Blue of Voltage Regulator #4 Brown/Violet Coolant Temperature Brown/White #5 Black/Brown Oil Pressure Brown/Green #6 Green ECU Power Green #7 Green Coil Power Same Green as above #9 Black Tachometer 2 Black Wires (18 Gauge) #13 Violet/Red Fuel Pump Direct to Fuel Pump #18 Black/Yellow Starter Black (10 Gauge) It will be necessary to peel back all tape from the main wires running across the engine and along the left fender to identify them. Once they have been identified, the other wires can be put aside for now and taped up or cut away later. Identify the Voltage regulator and throw it away since you have a 325I alternator. The electrical part can be tricky, so take your time and identify each wire before cutting. Some special items will need to be procured for this part. Put a 25A fuse in Fuse slot #5 and place a 15A fuse in the line running to the fuel pump from the harness. Also, in the 1987 325I models, there is a plug near the control unit that contains three wires. The black one is for the tachometer. You will use this wire instead of #9 on the round plug. Don’t solder or permanently fix the wires until you have the engine running and in the car, that way you’ll be able to correct mistakes if you made any. Once the electrical part is finished, mount the harness plug to the firewall for easy removal of the engine later on. If you don’t have the factory plug, etc. then simply cut and solder all wires to look as clean as possible. Pull all wires up and out of the way of the engine, but leave them connected. Turn the key and see if she runs.

    All you need is a decent printer and a piece of clear plastic to cut to shape. As long as the printer can print REALLY black you will be happy with the outcome.

    My First M20 Swap Attempt

    Pictures from my first M20 swap attempt. I sadly had to sell the car before I could finish it because I decided to go back to school and got kicked out of my work space. There will be another, and it will be bigger and better! This car is currently owned and being finished by Alex at Catuned in Sacramento.
