Hey guys,
My car finally arrived at the shop so I figured I would post some pictures and information. Some of you have followed the other thread about my car but if not, you can see what it was like before I purchased it here at this link
The PO did a great job building this car. He sold it to a gentleman out in WA. I purchased it from him a few months ago when he listed it for sale on BFC. As some of you know, i am currently in Iraq and I have never actually driven the car. My good buddy was driving it and has recently dropped it off at Racewerks in Virginia Beach. I typically perform all the work on my cars but I do not appear to be heading home any time soon and I really want to get the vehicle finished or close to it before I get home. That said, since I purchased the E30 I have splurged on a bunch of parts to bring this car to the next level. Here is a list of the parts I currently have and a list of is currently being installed.
These are the items I will install when I return; luckily I have a good buddy that lets me store/ship my stuff to his house.
Ground control coil conversion/camber plates
Massive 300mm front BBK (rear coming soon)
17x8 BBS RC reps
Red tails
Euro grills
OEM M-tech II kit
DDM HIDS
Alpine CDA-9887, Alpine Sirius integration, infinity kappa 5.25 components (F&R) Infinity kappa 5 channel amp and infinity kappa sub+ stereoinstaller E30 box (still waiting for)
Keyless entry kit
Parts currently being installed at Racewerks:
Custom TRM 60lb tune
SS rep header, burns Y-pipe, 3" metallic cat, 3" exhaust tubing, 3" muffler
.140 cometic head gasket/APR 2000 studs
Rogue power pulleys
Bavarian Solutions stage 3 CNC'ed cylinder head + oversized valves etc
schrick cams
T-trim with a 6.75" crank 2.95" blower pulley (18-20psi)
60lb injectors
AEM wideband
2 new knock sensors
BBTB
The parts I still need to buy,
custom CV axles
6 speed w/mount, shifter and driveshaft
rear massive BBK
Paint
carbon hood and deck lid
Front strut bar
custom front splitter/skid plate
rear camber adjusters/subframe/diff mod
R&F poly bushings throughout.
Autopower 4pt roll bar with door bars
Race Logic traction control
new tires....
I recently purchased an S52 that will be getting built when I return as well. I am building it for boost/daily driver. I plan on using Bavarian Solutions forged longer connecting rods and a custom forged piston. This set up should be strong enough to handle huge power while being up to the daily driving task.
Here are some pics. I appreciate any advice or suggestions as well. I hope you enjoy this build and much as I do. I will try to keep this updated with pictures as much as possible but I am at the mercy of the installer.
Enjoy.
