    Shane's e30 build

    Hey guys, although I'm sorta new to r3v I've had my e30 for a while now and I thought it was about time to start participating in the community so here is my build thread on my e30.

    A private space for your group's photos and videos. Share, react, and relive moments together. Available on iOS, Android, and desktop. Free for new sign-ups.


    So I picked up this e30 from a forum member on here I forget who actually but this is how it came.
    How it came:
    -88 black 2 door 325i
    -converted plastic bumpers
    -3.73 lsd
    -ESM 002 16x9 wheels
    -black leather recarro "is" seats
    -ground control coil overs
    Those were the only upgrades it came with everything else was stock.

    What I've done to it:
    -installed raceskids skid plates
    -installed smoked hella elip smileys
    -fresh kidney grille
    -smoked turn signals
    -fresh euro grille
    -installed MB Quart 6x9's and Alpine head unit
    -installed new control arms, tie rods, control arm polyurethane bushings all from fcpgroton
    -fixed driveshaft
    -new pypes muffler and 300 cell summit racing race cat
    -denso iridium spark plugs
    -upgraded walboro fuel pump 255
    -installed m-tech 2 steering wheel
    -installed smoked tail lights
    -MTI 3 piece 15x7 wheels with Toyo R1R tires(225/45/15)
    -installed IEengineering front strut bar
    And that's all I can think of right now I'm pretty sure that's it though.

    Very near future upgrades:
    -precision 6162 turbo
    -miller m20 turbo tuning kit(miller 3.5" MAF, Bosch 42# Injectors, W.A.R chip)
    -535i rear spoiler
    -tint windows
    -euro trim
    -finish turbo setup
    -repaint bumpers to shiny black

    That's all for the VERY near future but I'm nowhere done:)

    Eventually I'll have everything for the turbo and I have a few extra special plans for you guys. I'll keep you posted on what I do and I promise I'll have pics
    so stay tuned!

                    That'd be nice if mine came with gc's. Then I wouldn't have to fork over more than the cars worth

                            Yeah I didn't like how heavy they were and every e30 owner and their mother has basketweaves(almost). I'm throwing on better 3 piece wheels anyways.
