Another Turbo M20 E30

Perfect look.

Wich size of tyre on AZEV 17" ?

So awesome, great job with the new turbo! while i think switching back to chrome kidneys was the best you could do lookwise, switching to AZEV A made it worse. I liked the fifteen 52.

Beautiful car, is that Delphin grey? In a few of the picks I noticed what looks like a "bank" for your vacuum lines. Do you, or anyone else know where that could be sourced? I have Ts upon Ts getting everything connected and your setup looks clean. Nice job

I liked the 52's as well unless you can put some meat on these.
Your Wideband might not be working because it's fouled. It's awfully close to the turbo and should be bung'd more downstream imo.

car is nice. i think the other wheels looked better. just add more meat to them and youll be set

Got a new set (to me) of wheels for the e30. I had been searching day in and day out for a proper set of wheels for the car wanted either futuras, Rs's, or Azevs type A's. Most wheels where 5x120 and didn't really want to do a 5lug swap and one lucky day I stumbled upon these on the UK Ebay. 17x9.5(f) and 17x10(r) in 4x100 I did not think twice about pulling the trigger. I had to add 15mm spacers to the front because the wheel was touching the coilover when I lowered it to the current height, and the rear still needs to come down about another half inch.

Hey guys it took a bit longer than I hoped for basically just working on the car in the mornings before work but it is all back together again. New spark plugs, wires, oil feed and drain lines and the Pte5858. Took it on a short drive yesterday didn't push it much as it still needs tuning but boost comes on much much sooner now. My wideband isn't working no and neither is my tach so Ill be looking into that now.

Thanks for the kinds words! The head was resurfaced and has arp studs, the a/c was working when my buddy originally bought the car but he did have it parked for a long time and its currently not working. Once I get a few things sorted out I plan on getting the a/c working. Ill get some pictures of the intercooler charge piping.

I'd definitely appreciate that!

Nice to hear about the head, as I move closer to turbo dreams I've been thinking more about how necessary HD rocker arms and a turbo cam are. I'm getting the feeling that as long the rev limiter isn't being pinged incessantly the stock rocker arms hold up fine.

I spy some AC lines and a compressor! As another Texan, I'm very curious about your intercooler setup if your AC works.

Does your head have supporting mods as well?

You have great taste in cars :up:

First, who makes the wheels? I’ve been looking for something that is not the stock bottle caps and is 4 lug?

Second, do you have plans to go 5 lug, considering you have a turbo setup?

The wheels are Formula TR's made by fifteen52. They are made in a 16x8 and 16x9 but the car is on 16x9 squared setup. I do plan on doing a 5 lug swap eventually.
