        Nice purchase! Those parts will make the steering feel new.

                no kit just lemforder stuff from pelican.


                put all suspension parts in and the car feels great besides the wonky alignment. it looks like driver front side has no camber and passenger has alot of negative. thoughts on why?

                im going to get it aligned from a local shop. however ill be in Isreal for a bit so it will have to wait.

                  Very quick update.Did an oil change with 20w 50. My car burns so much oil (hope it's not a cracked head). Still building up I head parts for the swap.

                  I'm also looking for Alpina reps if anyone has a good condition set hit me up.

                          Ok guys, here we go. Got an 885 head from ROZNIC.





                          Only prob is the one broken rocker. Contemplating if SETA Pistons are worth it. I'd love to hear your opinions.

                            Okay guys I haven't posted in a while but I have definitely been doing things to the e30.

                            First thing is first, I took out my cluster and swapped the tachometer from a 5k to 7k, cleaned everything and put in rings.



                            Then I got a short shifter from an x5.



                            I also got a suede shifter boot and ebrake boot with m stitching.

                            One day me and my friend were looking at my coolant reservoir and we thought,"hmm this looks old and crusty," and proceeded to break the nipple on the return hose.





                            I didn't have an extra expansion tank so I had to get creative while waiting for the new one to come in.



                            Nothing some oreillys hose and a late model expansion tank can't handle.
