Description
8-liter inline-four installed along with an E30-sourced five-speed manual gearbox. Rota 15×6? wheels purchased in January 2019 are wrapped in 195/50 Achilles ATR Sport tires. The passenger-side rear speaker is not installed. Access to the engine’s ECU is through the glovebox. A wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel fronts a VDO 8k-rpm tachometer, an aftermarket GPS-based 120-mph speedometer, and a temperature and fuel gauge. The removed factory speedometer is included in the sale. The M42 1. 8-liter inline-four was reportedly sourced from an E30 318is along with the five-speed manual transmission, and the swap was performed by CAtuned Performance of Sacramento, California. The battery was relocated to the trunk, various components were powdercoated in black, the engine has a performance chip, and a power-distribution box installed in the engine bay helps manage the headlight relays and the electric fan. The fuel pump and sender were replaced with an in-tank E30 unit.
