Seller Description

1998 M Roadster for sale 101,000mi on body, about 85,000 on engine/trans. With lots of modifications including turbocharger. I have owned this car for 9 years, it has been the most fun car I have ever owned. It holds its own at the drag strip, road course, or just cruising.
It started with a Technique Tuning Turbo Stage 1 kit, I changed a lot of components to make it a bit better.

Engine:
2.8l M52, stock short block. Original S52 was destroyed years ago while developing the stand alone ecu.

Aftermarket Link G4 Xtreme engine controller, tuned by me. I am an engine calibrator by trade, it runs better than it did with the technique tuning tune . Tune 1 is a 93 octane tune that makes roughly 420whp at 9psi. The other is an E85 tune which runs 15psi and more timing, never dynoed with this setup, but it ran 11.5@124mph in the quarter mile.

External Oil Cooler, with Euro BMW Oil Thermostat.

Clutch:
Southbend Stage 2, no chatter, works excellent, nice and light clutch pedal.

Suspension:
TCKline Dual Adjustable Coilovers with adjustable camber plates.
Urethane Control Arm Bushings/Rear Diff Ear Bushing/Rear Subframe Bushing.

Brakes:
14" 2 piece lightweight DBA rotors.
6 piston calipers.

Car comes with the chrome wheels seen in the pics, the black wheels with Hoosier R6 tires are extra, I also have another pair of wheels with worn 315/17" Mickey Thompson tires, these are extra as well.
The only reason I am selling this car is I built an LSx engine I was going to swap into it. I can't bring myself to tear it apart again to do the swap, the car runs/drives really well in its current form. As a result I am selling and looking for another project car. Paint/Interior aren't perfect, I would put them 7 out of 10, price already reflects this so no low balls... As far as trades, I would only be willing to trade for a first gen Camaro/Firebird or a Chevelle.

It's a mish-mash of parts, but it seems like you're getting a lot for your money including big brakes, TC Kline D/As, a turbocharger and a hard top. I can't quite tell the color of the interior, but I'd guess black.
