    Bye Bye Mazda, Hello Bimmer!!!

    I'm going to move this thread to the project forum... here is the link http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=230630
    So, here is my old





    This is a 2004 RX-8, it is fully loaded with factory options, i upgraded to coilovers (Tein Flex), bigger wheels (Enkei RPF1), and wider tires (275 all around). This car was fun, but looking for something with more potential!!!

        Your RX-8 is the first one I've seen that I actually like.

            So my goal for this car is to swap it!... for the engine, i just want a little power... for the suspension, i just want to tighten it a bit... and i want black interior including headliner...

              same as my 318is... they are loads of fun. Put a 4.27 rear end in it and work on the suspension/tires and have fun!

                  If lucky, the E36 will die peacefully, in its natural habitat, and be given the prestigious honor of donating its parts to an E30

                    Lets do the interior!

                    I wanted to start with the interior, so went locally to search for parts... luckily, someone was parting out his 1991 318is... so here are some pics after i stripped the headliner





                    Removing the headliner is extensive... had to remove all of the windows out and the sunroof for it to be extracted! I also took his whole black interior INCLUDING THE BLACK HEADLINER... but i left my tan driver seat because he needed it

                        Here is the black interior all in the corner

                        and here is the black headliner hanging on my ping pong table
