The new sedan

[SickE30]

I picked up this 1989 325i sedan last month. It has 101k on the odo and I am the 2nd owner, the car came with full documentation of every service record from nov of 89 at the dealership. The car has a flawless interior and the body is in decent shape as well, the paint is nice if you're 10 feet away lol but it's a good starting platform. Here's what it looked like on purchase day.

Using one of the DIY's on here I sprayed the rear tail lights all red with some testers.

I purchased new Bily sports from Blunt, H&R sports from a forum member, e90 spring pads from the dealer, an is lip from Tischer, and moved my basket weaves over.

Some HID's from DDM and lamin-x for the fogs have wrapped up the exterior mods for time being.



I added an mtec1 steering wheel, a 4.10 lsd, and the cf cai from ka motorsports which didnt seem to do much for performance other than dropping the temp down considerably on the gauge cluster but it sounds fantastic.

Looking good! Some very legit mods to go along with an overall clean e30.

Damn Im so jealous! It looks so clean, 2nd owner and only 100k miles!? Thats a keeper for sure.

Nice choice in mods so far. It looks like a fun car.

That looks great! I too am the 2nd owner of my four door, but It was in the near family since the 92. What a great comparison to mine - Mine is lowered too, stockish looking, and I'm about to grab a set of weaves. Where did you get the drop hats from?

I suggest the MT1 Replica Wing, little bit more money on top, but IMO its worth it.

Lol at everyone distinguishing his car as a sedan.

I think a shadowline would look good.

I got the drop hats from my local dealership, the part number is in the sticky on the drop hats in the suspension thread. I think they were around $22 with taxes.

I don't mind @ all, I paid $3,100 for it locally. It had as I said before 101k on the odo, blown shocks, a cracked es lip, small chip in windshield, dry rotted antenna gasket, dry rotted intake boot, and dry rotted fuel line to main pump. Fixed all of that stuff, and it's slow starting @ random times still so I think it needs a pickup pump. I've added a vanity NC "E30 HOON" plate and I'm @ 6 and a half weeks on a matching europlate from europlate.com (sore subject). Next steps are tint, strut braces, shadow line, and 5 speed swap.

Perfect DD IMO.

I agree 100%.My wife and I are looking into the baby thing lol I needed a sedan. My other ride is an '00 Wrangler with a 5.2 V8 full width axles and 40's. Test drove the civic si 4 door and it was a pig, I dont like audis or vw's, and the 335s are too much. I love e30's, this gem came along so I bought it.

I suggest the MT1 Replica Wing, little bit more money on top, but IMO its worth it.

I'm going to do the Mtec1 wing, sideskirts of some sort, and esm 02's around the first of the year.

Lol at everyone distinguishing his car as a sedan.

Lol I noticed that too, guess it was the post subject.

I think a shadowline would look good.

That's next weekend's project after the 5 speed swap. Thanks for the kind words everyone, it's good to be back into the e30 game seriously again.
