    Long time BMW guy, new to the forum

    Hi guys. I'm a long time BMW enthusiasts (actually my passion for BMWs is borderline insanity). I've been big in to BMWs but up until now I have pretty much only been part of a local BMW forum, and a couple other BMW specific forums. I'm an apprentice at an independent BMW repair shop, and have owned 2002s, E21s, E24s, E28s, and while I'm not new to E30s, this will be my first long term E30 that I plan to keep.


    It's a 1990 320i Japanese Import. I bought it last week with 65k on the clock, and a snapped timing belt (all valves are effed). Anyways, the plan is to get the car running/driving, sell my daily driver E28 and will be doing an M30B35 swap (one of the reasons why I signed up here!).

    Only pic I have of the car right now


    Pulled the head off and found some clean pistons! Very little carbon with only 65K


    Head ready



    I thought I would share my other cars as well

    This is my baby, and my first BMW. 1976 BMW 2002 . I have done so much work to this car its not enough funny. I have a lot more pics/specs if anyone over here is in to 2002s.




    My daily driver 1986 535i, sitting on it's old wheels (It now sits on a set of forged BBS RZ weaves)


    My dad's daily 635csi


    Anyways, just wanted to say hi, and hopefully I'll have some better pictures/updates of my E30 soon enough.

        No we're not into 2002's at all. Please remove the pics, no one is interested.

        Oh, and welcome.

                            I might have to take a jaunt up to Surrey in the cabbie to take a peek at that E28! That is a very enviable collection of BMW's.
