              Well I am about to complete my 318i to M3 conversion (full body, suspension, and drivetrain). It has been one heck of a process and now I just have to decide on if I am going to drop in the S14 unmolested or go full stand alone and turbo that sucker. Either way the EMS is where I am having issues. Do I go ATE, MS or something similar.I am leaning towards the MS. Here is a pic of her in its current state (body work will be done and the warsteiner decals will be applied)

              P.S. I have a ton of spare OEM pieces so if any of you are looking for OEM M stuff let me know. I am comming from the s14.net community.

                Get the heater running, new HU/speaks, and suspension. Also little things like trim, lights, etc.

                Today I got the first one done! Nice n' toasty (its about 15 degrees out right now.. brrrr). And thanks the the PO, the new head unit is a bit more of a chore than it needs to be, but we'll see what I can't do tomorrow.

                Suspension wise, I'm waiting for my uncle to get his old Power Wagon off his full car lift. Damn nice garage he has... I'm sick of rolling around on the floor in mine!


                Then comes spring cleaning, new wheels and tires, and finally getting the thing plated/inspected/insured! It's a true project right now.

                  Dec 9th to be exact. Super low miles, everything on that car works perfectly (except the AC i think)

                      Secure the oil lines. I lost a track session due to a 928 dumping it's oil pan on the back straight at CMP ;)

                        E30-
                        Everything.

                        Mercedes-
                        4spd swap, undo PO hackery, maybe install a decent radio.

                        Chevy-
                        Having rear brakes again would be nice. Also prob should look into new rear springs, U joints, and why the hell the steering is so sloppy. Definitely need to fix the water leak that is corroding the fusebox.

                        Cadillac-
                        Freshen engine, little bit of bodywork and a respray.

                        Everything I own is a piece of crap.

                              freshen the s52 and throw it into the e30 after reinforcing the subframe and doing some rust repair.

                                Look to Wolf EMS much much better than AEM MS OR anyone else and make a plug and play for the e30
