    89 325I Vert. First e30/first post

    Sup all,

    Just bit the bullet and made an account. Weee!
    No more lurking for me.
    I picked this e30 up a few months ago.
    Body is mint, no dents, nothing...
    Interior is mint, no cracked dash, some seat rips, it's all good...

    What she came with
    Ca Tuned Coilovers
    Condor motor mounts (soon for sale!)
    Looks like new control arms and bushings, Lots of front-end work.
    The thing handles like a gokart.
    Some sort of replica rims.. Name?
    Cracked to shit intake boot.
    Shit diving boards.
    Plumbing hose clamps.
    Lots of zipties.

    What she didn't come with
    Muffler (Hi to every car alarm in San Fransisco)
    Stereo receiver (Now a Kenwood deck inhabits)
    Convertable top (Completely ruined)
    Brake sensors (ripped off)
    Coolant level sensor (it came with it just dead)
    Fuel filter. Come on, dude.







    Plans
    s52 Swap.


    I picked this e39 up for cheap, $500...




    Hopped into it where the previous guy crashed it and drove it till well...
    I didn't want to anymore... watching the temp gauge climb and climb...
    I stopped before things got worse. Towed the rest of the way home.

    It seems to have an s52 lower and an m5x head?
    I checked the block numbers and it points to a 326s2
    So what the heck?
    I know I've got a lot to do, wiring harness bullshit,



    Well, there goes my first post. Hello world.


    -Ben

      Yeah, that valve cover looks just like my e46's M54 valve cover. Cheap wrecked car may be fucky.

        Wiring harness is cake, should take you no more than 30 minutes to an hour. The other stuff is what's annoying
