  • F/S or F/T Supercharged, coiled, bbk'd e34 540/6 track rat

    Was planning to go all out with a full cage and a re-paint in the next 12 months but things have changed... Starting a new job that will be much more time consuming so I won't have time to finish putting this car together and get it out on the track. It started as my daily driver 10 years ago and has evolved into what's basically a car built to de. It's very quick, balanced and easy to drive on track. Started installing the dta s80pro with a custom harness built by Mike R ($$$$) and never finished troubleshooting because I ran out of time. Would prefer to sell it with the brand new dta and bnib aquamist hsf-4 with twin tank + cooling fan. Issue I was having was with getting proper readings from iat sensor, coolant temp sensor and tps. Probably something stupid but, like I said, haven't had the time to figure it out. Car runs safe and fast on the ess tune.

    Lots of very high end parts on this car... Paint is bad and it would look a lot better with a properly welded sunroof delete but it's what inside that counts:buttrock

    Good choice for those that want something a little different and fun.

          Wtf? Why build one! This thing is solid... Paint is the only thing about it that sucks!



          I thought a little bit more about the trade portion... Definitely interested in shifter kart(s) as trade + cash. Definitely interested in a trade for an X5 is model. Could possibly be interested in trades for other fun, mt, rwd car + cash.

          Also willing to sell without the dta and meth injection. Possibly interested in selling without the supercharger but I'm pretty low on time and it will take me a bit to pull it and get the parts it would need for n/a conversion (maf, injectors, passenger side motor mount, crank pulley, air box, pcv plate).

          Few other parts that will come with the car: revshift poly motor mounts, stock diff, jaffster delrin knob, rear seats, sunroof cartridge, spare 6-speed that has an issue with wanting to pop out of reverse on clutch release, 5 point harness... There might be some other stuff. I have to check the garage.

                  You are going to miss it, but I understand wanting to move on.

                  I have thought about putting my car up for trade just for giggles and to see what people had to offer, I just don't know if I could go through with it....lol.


                  GL. This car was done right! Post some videos.

                    Thanks man. Never planned on selling it but if it doesn't sell it's going to end up sitting in a garage with the fluids drained under a tarp. No time to give it the track use it deserves.

                    I'm sure I will. I'm not motivated to the point that I'm going to give it away.. I mean I've put 6k into it this year alone not counting the acs wheels... But if the right offer comes along I'll send it on its way.

                    I'll post a couple of vids when I get back home on Monday.

                      Bump it up.

                      The acs wheels are off the car and my old team dynamics wheels should be on the car in two weekends. Damn work getting in the way of all my car piddling time. Here's a pic with no wheels!



                      FYI I'm open to offers. Little bit flexible on price. Trades + cash definitely considered. Straight trade and it would have to be something like a nice, lower mileage 1st gen x5.

                      Here's a vid to show you how it accelerates... in this vid the AEM Uego was outputting a signal to the ECU. It never worked right hence the check engine light and me getting a dedicated bung drilled for it. You'll also notice the temp gauge floating a little bit... this video is how I know when I changed my waterpump... because it was actually on the drive over to a friend's garage for that maintenance item!

                      Here's how it handles (sorry about the sound... didn't have a GoPro at that point)

                            Bump. Work will resume on the car in two weeks... Going to get the dta dialed in, get a base tune dialed in and then once kinks are worked out the meth is goIng on the car. Once the meth is on I will not be willing to sell it without the aquamist hsf-4 (the latest and greatest for those not familiar) and dta s80. Price will stay the same, though.
