S52 slicktop 1998 318ti Hellrot So this sucks, anyways I need one of my 318ti's gone, so I am putting this up to see. Below is the copy/paste from the craigslist post. "The story: I picked up this s52 (3.2L E36 M3 engine) 1998 318ti Hellrot Slicktop (no sunroof) for $3,250 running but with tons of issues - like not having a pink slip, fees etc. I spent close to $1,000 to pay for registration and went through the DMV paper work to get the pink slip and smog done. Then again close to $1,000 for new eccentric OEM BMW trailing arm bushings and Ireland Engineering subframe bushings + install and a 3.15 medium case torsion LSD. I picked up the millpoint (red+black) 318ti Clubsport Interior as it seemed a perfect fit, drove down to San Diego for a hellrot 318ti M sport rear bumper to match (Around $6k spent by now including buying the car, what a waste!). The pictures are not the most recent, but close! But now it doesn't run . . . I am tired of it already and will loose a few thousand dollars but oh well, so is life. So the details: General: - Clean Title - Slicktop - Current Registration - **Smog done!** ~ a month ago so it is still good! You don't need to smog it! - 265xxx miles Engine/Driveline: - S52b32 engine swap - Short Shifter - Strong grabbing clutch - 3.15 medium case LSD Interior/Exterior: - Millpoint Clubsport Interior - Hellrot M3 front bumper - Hellrot Sport rear bumper Brakes/Suspension: -300mm vented rotors front -e46 front calipers -Hawk HP+ pads -Ireland Engineering SS brake lines front and rear -SuperBlue Dot 4 brake fluid -Front Tein SuperStreet E36 m3 coilovers/camber plates with TC Kline 425lb (?) springs -Rear H&R 318ti sport springs -LCA replaced -Centered E36 M3 LCA lollipop bushings **IMPORTANT NOTES**: - Car cranks/starts but dies right away I pulled the following CEL codes - No idea why since it was driving fine just recently: - P0135 (02 sensor) - P0412 (SAP) - P0600 (?) - P1403 (Charcoal canister?) - P1519 (Vanos ?) - Will need to be towed! - I have another swapped 318ti for sale: I will keep whichever one is not sold and also put the the brand new 0 miles suspension + other misc items that I recently bought for whichever one I keep (not mentioned above), so regardless which one gets sold, the suspension/brake/wheels setup will be what is currently on the green 318ti (NOT the DS1 wheels+tires). - Hood has been replaced with a completely black e36 m3 sedan hood instead of the stripe on the picture." Just deleted the links - PM if interested, I am most likely keeping the hellrot slicktop. __________________  ***328ti Build thread. *** Even more important: SUPPORT 318ti.org! CLICK THE LINK ABOVE!
