Anyone have a throttle body from an E30 325i or 325is that they don't need? I am looking for one for my megasquirt project on my 2002. I think what I am looking for must be from a 2.5L M20.
If you have one and are ready to pass it along to a good home let me know and we can talk price.
Thanks,
T.J.

It's not like I'm asking for some rare Wartburg part here. There are a lot of E30 people here. Someone's got some spare parts right?
I'm guessing I can get one from Vines.
my local yard usually has an e30 or two, they charge $35+5 core for a throttle body. i can take a look next time i'm there if that w/shipping works for your budget.
I don't have one laying here. I did think I would but since I can't locate it I probably tossed it in when I sold the 2.5 block from my E30 - but I think what you really want is an E30 throttle body with the TPS from an E36 325i. The E30 TPS is a 3 state switch and really not ideal at all for a MS. Since you are modding anyway - just use the E36 TB and TPS if you can make it work with the intake on the '02.

Thanks guys.
I am going to use a TPS from a 300zx so that's not a concern. There is a throttle body on Ebay right now with a buy it now for $40 - I think I'll just buy that one.
