picked up this 91 318is the other day...

[ill4noreason]

Minor update:
Engine is out along with trans drive shaft and all other shit. Devon knocked the engine lift over and smashed the engine between me and the car fucked my leg up and ripped my shorts in half but the E30 is ok. Tomorrow I'll be cleaning the engine bay and gonna clean up and paint engine. I have my 13hp pressure washer hopefully it will clean the engine bay up good but I have my doubt's. I have a can of alpine2 color matched so I think It will be getting sprayed... I have a bunch of new gasket and am gonna pick up the other ones tomorrow that I need. That's all should be running soon.

agreed. need to fill that crack by the bay door.

scissor lift would be sick. much easier/safer.

tomorrow this car will be running. no ifs and or butts. it will be on the road turning donuts.

a scissor lift would be badass, and devon, you see that video?

i slowed down to 50 :), no way i was gonna deal with any problems.


yeah im thinking about it, i'll txt you tomorrow after i do some more researching on e30tech.

best option for me is to build a motor and drop it into my car and sell my current one when time comes.

were you guys racing? who won?

[ill4noreason]

new m42 is in not fully hooked up yet. It should be by tonight if I have time after work.

The wheels are sold already they were 14x6 Borbet's with snow tires and I wasn't about to keep them. I'm gonna find some beater steelie's for the winter and rock my 16x9 Borbet's now. I don't need a fast dd just a reliable one that gets good gas mileage. I am going to Europe from September until October and am really considering selling my vert and having around 6-7k to invest in a new project... My buddy is in the army currently stationed in Egypt and I am talking to him to see how he can get a car shipped back. We are meeting in Munich and traveling for a month...

You trying to bring back euro goodies? and I thought you said you would never sell the vert?!

If it wasn't a vert, my friend you met that one time would be interested. lol

i got dibs on vert!

[ill4noreason]

I really really would like to keep it but right now its not practical and I really need the money for other things. It doesn't need that much maybe a weekend of work to be 100% but I got the 318is for pretty cheap. and it just makes sense plus I'm starting a company and need some start up money... I love e30's but can't have the one I really want right now. If my business takes off I will own a e30 m3 and a slick vert but for now new work truck and my 318is...

[devon.818]

plan is to have your car running tomorrow night.
we are gonna tear some shit up.

will give you plenty of time to sort out the kinks so we can roll to the CP meet friday.

[ill4noreason]

Yea if we didn't have furnaces air conditioners and water heaters to hook up we would be long done by now... But yea I am excited to get in and drive it. gotta replace the parking brake cable and replace the rotors and put new pads on. flush all fluids and should be good to go by friday. I might come out if it is done in time. I have a few parts request.
