From NA to Turbo

[Lrutts]

I joined r3v about 2 years ago or so, and only now am I deciding to show off my ride! I bought this car off of my brother when I was 16, it was bone stock, even had sheep skin seats! Its now three years down the road, and I have turned her into (what I think is) a pretty sweet e30 :)

I started with headers, strait pipe, injectors, and a performance chip, ram air



Then I decided I wanted to feel BOOST







14" rims just couldn't do it for me anymore ;)

The finished product (so far)







Since these pictures, I have blacked out all the chrome on the car, replaced the hood (the clear coat was pealing), ordered HIDs, did some body work to take care of some of the little rust it had. Now i am just waiting for the damn snow to melt.


I give out a thank you to my friend who did these great photos, if you want to see some more all-star work, check out this link!
