hello,
don't think i have posted any pics of my e30's on here. had quite a few but i'm down to just one now. i bought it as a bit of a wreck mainly because i liked the colour and drove it around for a while. i realised i liked the colour so much i decided i wanted to keep it so i cut all the rot out one winter and then decided to make it a lot lighter and removed all the interior and anything else that wasn't needed. then i decided to put an m52 into it. :twisted: pretty much every nut and bolt underneath is new as well as a new tank. the rear wings were that bad i just chopped them out and went for arch extensions.
it's constantly changing, this winter it's getting coilovers to sort the poor ride height and handling, fibregash wings and bonnet to lighten it even further. it is getting a carpet back, maybe new seats and the interior painted to make it tidier and a bit better for use in the summer as well as a new exhaust, custom powersteering hoses, rear strutbrace and maybe a roll cage if i can stretch that far.
spec off the top of my head is:
M52B28 and gearbox
M50 inlet manifold
chopped M52 exhaust manifolds
shite exhaust (can't wait for new one)
custom steering linkage
e36 rack
eibach rollbars
polybushed all round except m3 lollipop bushes
e30 m3 5 stud setup
adjustable camber plates on rear beam
rollbar plates on trailing arms
m3 prop
m3 3.25 LSD
H+R cup kit 60/40 drop (not that great with the M52 and stripped out)
arch extensions
staggered 16" hartges
stripped interior and sunroof gubbins removed.
rover 800 recaros
750i M/C
renault clio brake servo
braided hoses
HID headlights
fog lights removed
kenlowe fan
relocated battery
tec1 rear spoiler
cheapo ebay front spoiler
rear tow eye removed
rear plate surround removed
heater matrix removed
carbon door cards (group buy off this site :) )
erm......is that it? can't remember myself now.
it's no beauty but it certainly does the job.....not much in it between this and my mates e39 m5, we tested that theory recently :D
the day i bought him....looooong time ago
cheerio interior
hello rust
goodbye rust
cheerio m20 (and your cracked head)
sadly no money shot of the m52 in place as my camera died shortly after i put it in. still haven't got another one but pics shall be forthcoming once i get the engine bay tidied up this winter.
as he stood before being tucked up for winter. this was the first summer in 4 years that i actually got some use of the damn thing.
cheeky pics of my old 335i touring. regret selling this one a lot.
thats all for now. if i remember i'll get some pics of it in the new year once it's back on the road. cheers for looking :)
