E30 320 Touring -> 325 STANCE Project by MadMatrix

[MadMatrix]

Guys!
Thanks for very warm welcome and your comments! It's really great for me :)
I will let you know about all updates with E30, at this moment it's placed in warm garage and waiting for better weather, because in Poland now we have a lot of snow on the roads :D
I will prepare some photos of airride and describe further plans about it, because I want to make some upgrades!

This is a job I've been planning but also dreading to do since my car is quite rusty. Did you buy your brake lines premade or did you bend and flare them yourself?

I bought premaded, I mean they have been already cutted to OEM length and flared, so I only bended them by-self, based on the original ones. I mean putted off original brake and fuel lines as much as possible in one piece without additional bending them and then, based on that I prepared a new ones.

Regards,
Bart

During 2021 I made the bigest challenge of my life with this car :D
Fully underbody restoration, during this restoration also I've bought and prepared new fuel tank, new brake and fuel lines, restored brake calipers and probably everything which was possible and was under the car :)

During 2019 also front lip has been changed from Volvo lip to IS Lippe :)


During 2020 I changed seat belts to red ones


And... Air ride :)


Unfortunately this is the best picture which I have (I will do more up to date and share with you during next days! :)) - Now it looks better in my opinion and I've also some plans for this AirRide for next year :)

Hmmm... Last post was 7 years ago and... E30 is still in my hands and feels well :)
Hello again! :)
So I thought to make some update! Maybe someone is still curious about E30 Touring from Poland :D
From the begining!
During 2017 and 2018 it wasn't done anything special, only fixing minor issues :)
Let's start from 2019!
I putted sound absorbing mats on the whole car!


And... Red Design Edition has been completed! :)


Roof carpet has been also restored!

[jeenyus]

car is looking great! not a huge fan of the chrome lip/black center. it would be so much better with silver or gunmetal.

[MadMatrix]

Some updates :)
Because I found the leak had to remove carpet and dry floor and carpet. I think it's the best occasion to repaint my carpet to black
BEFORE

AFTER


Red design edition interior LOADING 50% :devil:
I found rear seats.


Always, when I had to change the wheel or do something under the car, I fought with the original lift, so i bought new jack and jack stands.

Thanks Guys! :)
Yeah! It's a Passat stylized to USA Edition with airride ;)

Looks great - Is that a Passat behind you? That doesn't look too bad either!

Hi again :)
