Hi All, So I'm finally after many years sitting down to share with the R3V community my perfect E30. Its been a part of my life for the last 4 years and has undergone a lot of hard work. It started out as a 100% original bone stock car that I purchased from the Second owner up in Vancouver BC. I could go into all the fun little details but Ill skip that in favor of the fun stuff.
Fun facts about the car!
100% original untouched Hennarot paint. The only thing not is the Mtech 1 Spoiler. The mirrors are original Hennarot paint off an M3.
Interior is also very Original, the seats still retain the original upholstery, The only modifications done to the interior is a very nice vintage Nardi steering wheel, leather shift boots, a vintage Alpina shift knob, dead pedal and floormats and the swapped instrument cluster.
Suspension is Bilstein HD all around with TA technix springs, stock everything else. Wheels are 16x7.5 Borbet Type B's all wrapped in BFGoodrich rubber.
Now for the fun stuff... the engine. where the underpowered 2.7 E motor used to reside has been replaced with a custom built M20b25 out of an 87 325i. The engine was built by Gibson Motor Works here in my home town of Puyallup Washington..
The specs...
9.5 to 1 compression Mahle Superflow Pistons
Arp Head studs
Nuke Adjustable Cam gear
Custom ground cam shaft (Done by Gibson Motor Works)
Beamed stock Rods
Knife edged Crank
Ireland Engineering HD Rockers
Ported and polished Cylinder head
Intake manifold and Header were port matched to the head
BAV auto long tube header with no cats
Gates Racing timing belt
Miller Performance MAF conversion
Miller Performance WAR chip
19lb Injectors
BAV Auto performance wires
BOSCH plugs
Probably forgetting a lot but you get the idea! Any questions feel free to post them or Pm me.... and now for the pictures!!!
