Well here it goes for a seccond time..(this is going to be a lot shorter than my original post.) Thanks taptalk for wasting an hour of my time ugh.....
*edit... Omfg nothing is working tonight... Sorry for the massive pics... Don't know how to resize on mobile..*
First.... Hi... I'm Rob, I'm from B.C. Canada and 2 weeks ago I purchased my first E30 325 with an auto trans and 445,000 km's. The previous owners neglected it and it is going to require a ground up rebuild, rotted subframes, broken swaybar mounts, a beyond tired engine and some rust.. (Less rust than I was expecting as the carpets were drenched when I bought the car..) I patched the hole where the clutch would be temporarily until I can afford to get the welding done but with all the other immediate problems the rust can wait until summer.. (Nobody likes wet feet...)
After finding all this out I thought to me self "what a nugget.. A drift nugget!!!" so I will be ordering new bushings, rear trailing arms, and front and rear subframes in the coming months...
Due to funds, parts availability, design and purpose this car will not be utilizing all BMW parts.. You guys can hate me all you want for it but it is what it is.. Hopefully this thread will give some ideas and solutions to problems that will help someone down the road. Thanks for reading and will update soon :)
