My new little red(devil)

[PaladinReed]

So, after my recent wreck in late January of my sterling sedan I considered dropping the e30 game for a while.

Friday brought with it an interesting CL add and my good pal Tim (Philo SN) and I decided to go check it out.

As of an hour ago I now own a little Brillantrot 1991iS with 148k, almost ENTIRELY stock, 5 spd. (of course). The M42 is my first and it seems like it could be a fun little engine.

On to pics.

My sedan :(





And the new guy. Excuse the shitty cell pics





....

Oh. And forgot to mention. . . She's a slick top. . . :-D



Plans are: coils, SSK, clutch stop, elips or smilies perhaps, maintenance work and severe cleaning, lose the tint, replace the drivers fender, swap out interiors, momo steering wheel, M3 cabs and new control arms. And maybe just maybe I will have a mint euro late model valance.

i always hated those white wheels. now you can do the red car up proper. :up:

[vlad]

red M42 looks like a fun project
Wanna buy Mark D chip? I also have brand new rear shocks for it, cheap! :D

[ubernasty]

drop the e30 game?? after your white vert looked so good... that'd be retarded. You should go low and wide with this one ;)

LTW reps are still in the garage, you had first dibs, I just still have not gotten them around to be sold yet. Ill PM you soon. And I would be down for a Mark D but I have a feeling Courtney at Metric Mechanic would burn me one for little to nothing, and the car will be getting the GC coils and Koni Yellows from my Sterling so good there too. Thanks for support. This will be a fun one!

Low immediately. Wide and fat maybe down the road, I have some Kosei K1's still and this is on US weaves so I may keep them for a little while while I figure out some new shoes. Would love some staggered ESM mesh but we'll see. Thanks!

Yes, back in the game!!! Congrats!

Thanks man. This deal was too good to pass up. I did'nt pay much

any desire to sell the sunroof panel and pass side fender (if undamaged) cheap? heh

[Philo]

Oh yeah! I'm so glad you got this thing. Now we just need to find time to swap things over.

P.S. i'm sure Courtney will hook you up with the chip for nothing. Have you talked to him yet? I got digits if you need them.

[Philo]

BMW was like "m20, m20, m20, . . . oh shit that last one was suppose to be an M42. . . "

I noticed that too. Not quite sure. Looks OEM though and the title is clean.
