    Other information:
    ZHP passed emission after a retune in Oct 2018. It failed in 2017 because original Supercharger injectors were leaking causing check engine light. This was fixed with new Bosch EV1 injectors and TRM retune to match these injectors. Car gets 27MPG at 75 mph highway.
    ZHP is my backup track car so it has been used on track 12 times. After each track event, it gets new oil and filter changes.
    Mobil 1 European car formula 0W40 engine oil
    Redline transmission and differential oil
    BMW blue coolant with distilled water and water wetter added
    Car was dynos with 283HP at the rear wheel. Approx. 310 crank HP
    VERY SMOOTH power and torque curves. No dips as the revs build. See dyno chart
    AC blows ice cold- 38 deg at center vent on max cold. See picture, Heat is HOT
    2 master keys- both coded to lock, unlock doors, trunk, open and close sunroof and windows, fold unfold mirrors
    Added rear seat center pass thru if you need to haul long objects.
    Headliner in excellent condition- no sagging
    Cons:
    A, B, C pillar fabric peeling- common e46 issue
    Headlight self-leveling does not work because left headlight housing is a halogen light housing due to supercharge intake tube requirement
    Both left and right quarter panel edge has metal and paint damage from previous owner trying to DIY fender rolling.
    Stone chips, small dents and scratches in line with mileage.
    LED interior lights flicker sometimes
    Front fender liners are torn and loose
    Right front window regulator beginning to make noise going up down- works fine.
    Required maintenance of supercharger system- clean oil line filter yearly, drain Oil Catch Can every 2 months or 2000 miles, blow off valve and oil drain hoses are original and will need replacing- oil drain hose wet, Clean MAF every 6 months.
    Radio turns off every 25 mins, have to turn back on. Don’t know why it does that.
    Transmission chatter at idle from single mass flywheel- normal condition.

    Asking price $12000. i want this car to go to an enthusiast who appreciate all that's been done to the car.

    Wish I had the extra scratch to buy this... I'd love to have an extra 90hp...and the brakes to back it up.

    How does it run in normal 'daily' type of driving? Also; I might have missed it in your description, but has the RACP been reinforced?

    GLWS...

    thank Chris

    Normal daily driving drives great- engine power is very linear, very smooth, no dips in power thru the RPM ( see dyno chart) The HP and torque just pours on as the rev builds. I run normal premium gas (93 here) and get 26.5 on the highway cruising. Clutch is heavier than stock but NOT like a race clutch. it is still a sprung hub. Not sure what your RACP means BUT the rear chassis has the Turner welded reinforcement kit welded and then painted. There was no repair of the chassis- The reinforcement was preventive.

    RACP = Rear Axle Carrier Panel

    Usually incorrectly referred to as the "subframe."

    I have some pocket lint and paper clips for trade :D

    sad to say, but the TMS kit (and other kits like them) are a waste of time - they do nothing to prevent the issue, they just direct the damage elsewhere. unfortunately the vendors that sell these kits are uninformed/uneducated and mislead their customers.

    sorry... not trying to take a giant dump in your thread here.
