New Here-My E30/5.0/GT45/C4

[MonsterE30]

this was the teardown process fml. and the fun began.

Sweet car!!!!!! This is exciting/motivating for me since mine is nearing completetion and is very similar.

Couple questions:

Is that a on3 hot side kit? any mods to it if so?
How do you like the rx7 brakes?
What brake booster / master cylinder is that?

btw. I have a 98 exlporer 5.0, all new felpro gaskets, arp hardware, bb 60-1 turbonetics turbo, ms2, BW T5, king cobra clutch kit, etc etc loads of parts on the shelves for future upgrades but I doubt the car is going to handle the setup as is.

the headers are from an ON3 kit, but have some cutting and rewelding to move the outlet flange more towards the front, then everything else was custom made for my setup lol. the wastegate used to route right behind the right front bumper, but now with me intercooling it, I have to move it towards the left side of the car so I can make more room for piping. As for the Rx7 brakes, they're nice, but I wish I had more stopping power with the 5.0 setup. I just don't feel like spending a lot of $$$ on that yet. then for the master cylinder, im drawing a blank on which car it came from, got it from a buddy of mine when we did everything lol.

Also.....what do you guys think of this color? im thinking of doing the car in this, but im kinda on the fence about it. I love the color and I think it should contrast well with the gold M-technica wheels. feedback is welcome.

Got it painted yet?!

it looks great, just ehh about going through with it. I think I may just keep it white. I change my mind faster than I can change my mind haha.

Keep it white, nothing like white on gold.

[evandael]

monster, keep it white. it definitely improves the unassuming look.


i must know.. what are you going to for traction? haha.

[MattAvino]

Sweet jesus. This is my dream e30 setup.
What sort of booster/brake setup are you running?

[MonsterE30]

Cant remember what booster we used lol. but guess what I just picked up!!!! door cards, front and rear seats, grille, steering wheel, whole passengers door, center console and some misc. stuff. sry for shitty cell pic, but I was excited of what I just picked up for near nothing.

[TheTacoMan]

Matte white could look quite good and be a good compromise.

[evandael]

is that a blue sport interior?

holy shit.. awesome!

[MonsterE30]

Indeed it is. The only thing wrong with them is the drivers seat frame is tweaked from the previous owners car getting wrecked, ill fix it, and theres a dime size tear on the rear seat which ill sew up. But the leather is damn near mint. Got the whole lot for $500. Im pretty stoked.

[bmwandhonda]

WOW. Insanity.

[Rc 415]

Yeah....I know, but that price tag gives me a stomach ache every time I see it!
