    e36 to e30 finally

    New to BMW, I purchased a 93' 318i with the help of SpyHunter and GotCone(Simmons and Hunter) about 5months ago?......


    I sold it last week when my long time autocrossing buddy, Russell Blume(last person to win a solo2 championship in a 318is, 2000 Dstock) offered to sell me his 91' 318is hardtop. I had to have it! The car came with Koni's, big front sway, turner chip, 4sets of wheels, extra 4.27 LSD, and the taillights(anyone know what these are specifically?). He basically sold me his entire e30 stash along with it(i'll post pics of said stash later).








    plans for future are to switch to all black interior, lower it(i have front ground controls already), clean/fix odds and ends, elipsoids w/HID, FIX AC!, and have fun with it. Dont know how long it'll take me to get to this since we start autocrossing this next week, too many hobbies/ not enough time

      Clean car, I'm sure that m42 in the e30 chassis is a lot more fun than in the e36. Granted hodge will tell ya otherwise!

        good luck with it.
        i'd clean it up a little bit, put on some OEM tails, and even out the suspension.
        Looks like a great start!

                Looking good, Joe! I had the same issue with my glovebox. PITA.

                  Ditch the eBay tails, swap in clean seats, clean, clean, clean...

                  ...and you're done

                        Darn right I will...:nice:

                        M42's in an E30 are awesome however.

                        I still like the M42 in the E36 though...especially with a blower.

                            Nice. The glovebox should be easy, just activate the lever with a screwdriver. I just did mine a couple days ago.
