Thanks Guys!
I'm very happy and proud after that comments! :)

Dj Buttchug, those springs have the same (or very similar) stiffnes what my front springs :)
So now i have more stable car, because suspension works very similar on both axes :)
Rear springs works to down about 2 cm :D

On the occasion... Today i was bought new engine oil. My choice is Millers XF Longlife 5W40 and MANN Oil Filter.

Thanks alas!
About rings do You mean wheels?
Really!? In The US You don't have Japan Racing wheels? I don't know about prices in The US, but it's a replica of VOLK TE37V ;)
On the ocassion... A few photos with My Good Friend from E30 Meeting 2016 in Poland :)

At the last week i see photo of instrument cluster with black rings around gauges. I loved them about first look! So i thought "I must have it!" :D
Because i can't buy black rings, i bought chrome rings and... I painted it to mat black

Some updates :)
Because I found the leak had to remove carpet and dry floor and carpet. I think it's the best occasion to repaint my carpet to black

BEFORE

AFTER

Red design edition interior LOADING 50% :devil:
I found rear seats.

Always, when I had to change the wheel or do something under the car, I fought with the original lift, so i bought new jack and jack stands.

car is looking great! not a huge fan of the chrome lip/black center. it would be so much better with silver or gunmetal.

Hmmm... Last post was 7 years ago and... E30 is still in my hands and feels well :)
Hello again! :)
So I thought to make some update! Maybe someone is still curious about E30 Touring from Poland :D
From the begining!
During 2017 and 2018 it wasn't done anything special, only fixing minor issues :)
Let's start from 2019!
I putted sound absorbing mats on the whole car!

And... Red Design Edition has been completed! :)

Roof carpet has been also restored!

**MadMatrix** · 11-10-2023, 05:35 PM

During 2019 also front lip has been changed from Volvo lip to IS Lippe :)

During 2020 I changed seat belts to red ones

And... Air ride :)

Unfortunately this is the best picture which I have (I will do more up to date and share with you during next days! :)) - Now it looks better in my opinion and I've also some plans for this AirRide for next year :)

During 2021 I made the bigest challenge of my life with this car :D
Fully underbody restoration, during this restoration also I've bought and prepared new fuel tank, new brake and fuel lines, restored brake calipers and probably everything which was possible and was under the car :)
