'84 Lapis Blue 325e m20b25 swap

[nraub]

Hey r3v,
Just wanted to put up some pics of my e30, picked her up in March 2015 and had a great first year fixing her up. Will hopefully have her ready for my first track experience this summer! I'll be adding more pics occasionally when I get some good ones.

Lapis Blue
1984 325e
140xxx
5 speed
Coupe
Black leather sport interior
(waiting on front seats)
Black parcel shelf
Blue carpet
Momo Prototipo wheel
Alpina Reps 15"
Yokohama S-drives 205

What I've done so far:
- 325i Engine Swap 150xxx
- Plastic Bumper Swap
- Full Paint (first time, turned out decent)
- H&R Sport Springs
- Bilstein Sport Shocks
- Turner Motorsport Race Chip
- Z3 Steering Rack
- Stainless Scorpion Exhaust
- 3.73 LSD
- Z3M Short Shifter

Future Plans:
Don't want to go full on track car, (already have an s50 swap beast) but still want her to be fun on the track.
Next on the list:
- Schrick Cams
- Upgraded sway bars

First day out of the garage all put back together about 2 months after I got it.




First car show, OktoberFast




With the s50 swap








Update: Got the new wheel in today!


Thanks for looking!

Before, during, and after paint



My dad doing the honor


Before I swapped in the black leather (pics to come), still rocking the seat covers until I find front seats though.

Thanks! The rear does bug me a bit, will probably just bite the bullet eventually and fabricate on a late valence or something. I don't like the metal bumpers but I love the early tails so I'm happy with it.
