My 87 Mtech 1

[E30Kills]

Some of you may have read my thread about my last E30 that was totaled RIP but as of two months ago I am back in the E30 game with a 87 325is. The color is an almost bronzit, it has Bilsteins and HR race springs in the front and IE springs in the back. Stainless steel brake lines, 15' Euroweaves, all the goodies. The only issue is the mileage (250k) which is why I'm rebuilding it at this moment. The PO sorted most of the exterior aesthetically but I am going to change, and have changed a couple things here and there in the last two months.

Me trying to look cool


A friends 3.0 CSL and My E30

Also shout out to a great friend "Buddy" for letting me use his shop and also for owning a fully restored 3.0 CSL and a fully restored 2002TII.
New Camshaft going in, new rocker arms, gaskets everywhere, new fluids, full cleaning, just about everything will be rebuilt or new when I'm done with it!
Long term goals as of right now full cloth interior, hopefully Mtech from Creative Visions when I have the money and possibly stroking it?
More pics to come.
Also sorry for the image size, anyone wanna tell me how to size them down?

Looks awesome. Congrats. Looking forward to seeing the progress...

Who's hosting your pics? Usually there's a option to display smaller images.

Yes this was the car that was for sale in Wisconsin. I knew I had to have it when I saw it :)

Nice pick up. I want to add a (Henna) M tech 1 to my stable too.

pressure tested and machined 885 head


Cam lobes are pretty worn


New FEBI cam and rocker arms :)


This chip should give me +30 HP with my cold air intake (I'm kidding of course)


How she sits right now

Trying to get her running quickly, getting the valve springs out is taking forever cause I don't have the right tools but such is life

Very nice! Better than bronzit.

I just moved to Wisconsin an thought about picking that car up. I love Mtech 1's. Looks like it went to a good home!

Lovin the color

250k miles is still good as they are good for upwards of a million miles.

Nice find by the way :D

You forgot to mention Buddy's '02.

Did you buy an OEM cam when there are millions of other cam choices out there???

[keefy6]

Very jealous...

But congrats OP!
