    informal intro

    These are my cars/projects, I've been a lurker for a while so I decided to post some photos.


    My 1987 535is 5speed, stock right now. Soon to have dinan springs with billy sports.


    My newly acquired e30 it's in rough shape and sits annoyingly high. currently not running with an autotragic, but came with an 885 rebuilt head which is cool. These wheels have always reminded me of this



    This is just a sneak peak of what is in store for my e28 in the coming year or so.

    Thanks, all comments and questions appreciated.

    E30 needs some coilovers ASAP.

    I do however, want that engine.

          The e30 definitely needs coilovers, or at least lower springs and larger tires. I bought the car in Oceano Ca, was in a front end collision, done by the owner who is actually a year younger then me, drunk and texting I guess on the freeway.
          Some better pictures of the car can be found here :

          I'm stoked I bought it, cause I got to register the car under my name, pretty swanky.

            Another kicker, the s38 came with euro headers!

              You can swap a s14 into a e30 and it is still an e30. e28+s38=e28, engines don't make an M*

                e28


                wat:finger:


                same body styles so i would imagine you could pull it off without anyone noticing. unlike the m3 which has wider fenders. the m5 does not. from what i understand. dont quote me boy cuz i aint said shit

                  Think the VIN would more that make up for the badge.

                    Another reason the engine is going in an e28 is the swap is not as difficult, compared to all the modifications and tight tolerances of the swap into an e30 chassis. Later down the road the e30 will get an m30b35 with a b34 head,m5/533 flywheel, and dinan chip. ;)
