I hate to do it...but, here we go.... DINAN S2 part out. All parts, with the exception of the clutch, flywheel, SSK, and wheels/tires have been on the car for 30k miles or so.

DINAN 18" Wheels with new Michelin Pilot Sports: $2500 plus your nice set of stock wheels and tires. Buyer pays shipping.

DINAN Parts that are available:

CAI
Air flow mass meters
Throttle Bodies and Velocity Stacks
Headers
Exhaust
3:45 Limited slip
Strut and shock tower braces
Stage 2 suspension with JRZ shocks

I would like 50% of the DINAN price plus your stock parts in return. Buyer is to pay all shipping charges. Any questions, either PM me or shoot me an email at adiflix@yahoo.com

Also, check out my thread with the upgraded MKIV DVD, widescreen nav, BM53 radio, etc for sale. Thanks.

The S2 is still on Ebay, so is the part out conditional on your price not being met?

Please PM about headers and wheels. Thanks

Its a big no no since it is considered fraud by ebay standards. There was a whole special on the news regarding up bidding your own items and how serious of a crime that is a few years back. It is also unfair to the real bidders, because they are willing to buy your item spending their money on it not just up bidding a price with no intent on buying. In regards to my part out, there are no rules prohibiting me from making individual for sale threads as long as i am not a dealer. Good luck on the part out since i had to do the same about 1.5 years ago.

Ebay refers such cases to law enforcement. Ebay shill bidding.

Shill Bidding is bidding that artificially increases an item’s price or apparent desirability, or bidding by individuals with a level of access to the seller’s item information not available to the general Community. Shill bidding is prohibited on eBay.

Because family members, roommates and employees of sellers have a level of access to item information which is not available to the general Community, they are not permitted to bid on items offered by the seller–even if their sole intent is to purchase the item. Family members, roommates or employees may purchase items from a seller without violating this policy simply by using purchase options–such as Buy It Now–which do not involve bidding.

eBay strongly encourages sellers with employees to ensure that their employees are aware of this policy and the possible consequences of violation.

Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:

*

Listing cancellation
*

Limits on account privileges
*

Account suspension
*

Forfeit of eBay fees on canceled listings
*

Loss of PowerSeller status
*

Referral to Law Enforcement

Spend a few minutes taking eBay's tutorial on shill bidding.

If you believe that another member is artificially raising the price or desirability of an item by shill bidding please report it to eBay. Please be sure to provide the user IDs and the item numbers in question.

Can I get the CAI if you still have them.

Thanks Charlie!

Not only can we get high quality Dinan goodies but if our stomachs are making us epicurious for some delightful cuisine, we can satisfy that desire here too.

BTW does any one want to by a 2005 Harley Fat Boy with 6800 miles so I can afford more of these parts???

The part-out of Dinan products (except for wheels) is on hold. I can not find a mechanic willing to do the required swaps. Ryan, I know you said it wasn't difficult, but I looked up underneath that car, and I don't have the patience or mechanical know how to even attempt to pull those headers out. My shop mechanic (we have an excavation business) is afraid to try it .."boss i don't want to mess up your car." (that is fine he is used to Cat and Peterbilt, not BMW..lol), but then I was pretty surprised when my local BMW mechanic said there was no way in hell he was touching it. So right now, I am considering selling it as a full S2 minus wheels and upgraded nav/steering wheel for $23k, or trying to find a local shop that won't charge an arm and a leg to do the work.

Also, the only member who had agreed to buy any of the Dinan equipment was Rich, headers and TBs, and he is upset but also understands the situation. Thanks and I really aopologize.
