1991 318i Cabrio bagged w/s50 swap

[childsplay]

Not good with updating as often as I should or giving details on the build so here we go..... Bought it off CL in July 2016. Finished light restoration/build in Jan 2017. Hurricane Harvey sat her down from Aug 2017 to Feb 2018. Bagged her and drove until April when the m42 blew a hole the size of a softball. Sourced a s50 and dropped her off at European Motor Gruppe in Houston, TX. Cranked her for the first time today......

Holy smokes my 318ic is jealous! Can you tell me about the air ride setups you have, and post pics of the air tank and compressors? This is exactly what I wanna do to mine but with a different engine. Props!

Rummaging through my phone for pics. I have some suspension pics somewhere.

Next is the interior. Had it done by a shady shop and I HATE it. Same colors, better craftsmanship next time......

Temporary setup until I decide on the new layout. Weighing audio options that will actually produce the sound I'm looking for with the cabrio's impossible trunk design.

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty jealous of your fun toys there lol. I like the way you have the compressor and tank tucked up under the roof's bed there. For audio options, check out @e30dreamin on Instagram. He's been making 8" sub boxes that fit right in the sides of the trunk and they look clean, and he's been getting lots of great feedback.

Driveshaft installed and exhaust welded up. Have some video clips of the first start. Sounds amazing! Just have to bleed the brakes, and modify some a/c lines then she's ready for a test drive.

Love it! I do love bagged e30 verts. I like the dual mids in the doors too.

Thanks, I just need an effective solution for the sub setup. The tank's location doesn't allow me to go the g.a.s. enclosure route.

Mike from EMG just sent me a nice little update.....
