    My new filthy e30 s50 swap project.

    Picked this up Friday in Pullman WA. It has a misfire and is running too rich, which I'm working on fixing, but it should do for now. Here are some pictures of it on the way home.













    Here was its forsale ad http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum....php?t=1928572 which lists everything done to it so far. For $5,000 it wasn't a bad investment It came with a trunk full of parts including an s50 wiring harness, additionaly red label ecu, extra vanos and some 75d poly bushings as well as lots of other parts. I look forward to finishing this project as it still needs a lot of sorting out to do and hitting the track with it this next season.

        The 17x9.5 CCW's and slicks it came with in my e34 touring.


        It came with a set of nitto 255's for the ccw's but those were in the e30 for the drive home.

        The two together

              Happy to see you got it. I was hoping for some funds to come in, I really wanted to snag it.

                :) I pulled money out of my stock account to snag it. I love my e34 as a daily but it lacks the fun of an e30. I'm eager to dig into this.

                      Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

                              I've been trying to decide on whether I would put a full interior back in it or not. I wish I kept my interior out of my last e30.

                              The wheels are what sold me on it!

                              IDK I kind of like them being a different color than the car. I need to seal them in the back so the tires don't kick up water into the trunk anymore.

                              Here's a video messing around on the way home. I was more concerned about making the 300 mile journey home with a misfire than making a good video. But there is more to come once everything is all sorted out!
