So my brother(another member here) and I just bought another E30. This time we purchased it together, with the thought of building something really nice. It's a 90 325i coupe. It has beautiful but filthy brilliantrot paint. Sadly it is an auto, and the motor is supposed to be toast. Both problems can be fixed. We don't really care, we were just after a nice body and we found one. We got it from a young college dude who had gotten it back from police after it was stolen(keys left in ignition) from his house. Anyway we got it for $700. Both of us already have e30's for daily drivers, both our cars are 325e with b25 swaps. Both cars are lowered with bilsteins all the way around, his H&R sports, mine is the bav auto kit, 3:73 lsd's, etc.
This time we are thinking something more fun, 24v, five lug, turbo, coil overs, maybe a bigger brake setup. Any suggestions on what way to go? We are both mechanics and we will be doing all the work, except and paint work. Trying to stay under 10K on the total build. I already have some exterior pieces for it, Racing dynamics rear apron, and what i believe to be a hartge knock off rear spoiler. Looking for ideas on what you would do, or might have done different on your guys' builds. Here's a crappy pic, its all i got last night.
