1999 E36 BMW M3  
Alpine White  
5 speed manual  
18" CSL Replica Wheels  
UCC pulleys  
Mishimoto radiator  
M50 intake manifold swap  
Goodridge SS brake lines  
Hawk pads  
Bilstein Front/rear shocks/struts  
K&N air filter

Just replaced:

Guibo  
OEM Sachs Clutch  
new slave  
both 02 sensors  
new MAF  
vanos sensor  
Hawk brake pads in October  
SS brake lines installed 4/10/11  
rebuilt cylinder head  
new head bolts  
gaskets  
new plugs  
all new vacuum hoses  
OEM headlights  
fog deletes  
front bumper trim

The Bad:

The car has a random misfire. I believe this is due to the timing being off. I have a new head gasket, vanos gasket, and head bolts which will go with the sale of the car. The AC was removed by the previous owner.

I’ve put a lot of hard work into this vehicle over the past 4 months. I’m to the point where I need a car I can daily drive right now. This is why I’m going to sell this. I really don’t have the time or resources to finish the repairs right now. I have receipts for the the parts that were replaced. The car can be driven, it just has a misfire. I don’t drive it, it just sits in my driveway taking up space.

Does this car have a decal on the passenger side towards the rear? If it is I saw you a few weeks ago on Central Ave. Really nice M!

There definitely is, I have SS lines on my car, they just get seized up. The bracket becomes part of the fitting when you assemble them correctly.

If you still have them and want to put them on I’ll give you a hand. I had trouble with my old M3 but that’s because I stripped them because they were so rusty and corroded.

The fronts bolted right up. The rears have an “S” shaped pipe which connects between the two lines. I have one of the old lines. I’ll take a pic of it in the morning to give you a better idea.

I’d like to keep it, but due to the current situation I’m in, I’m trying to get a quick sale. If I don’t see any real interest in it in the next few weeks, I’ll probably end up keeping it. I no longer have my 1 series, so I need a car to get to work and back. I was going to use the money I get from this for a down payment on a newer vehicle.

If I didn’t already have the Ti, this thing would have been sold yesterday. ☹
