    my '90 325is (56k deathwish!@#)

    My baby, a 1990 325is 5 speed.

    The Mods:
    -BMP intake w/ custom heatshield prototype
    -JimC chip
    -SuperSprint cat-back
    -H&R springs w/ Bilstein sports all around
    -Eibach Swaybars w/ IE trunk-mounting + trailing arm reinforcements
    -Kosei's on Kuhmo's
    -Euro Ellipsoids
    -BMP strut tower brace (front)
    -Full Sound System (Deck, Comps, Sub, Amps)

    On the way:
    -Tint
    -Smoked tails and front indicators (I hate Niki's Place)
    -New clutch + maybe lightened flywheel
    -repaint misc. parts
    -Big Bore Throttle Body
    -M30 AFM swap
    -Brembo slotted w/ EBC Greens and Stainless lines (sitting in Garage)
    -BBS wheels (RX's maybe)
    -Shadowline

    The Dream:
    -e36 M50 swap
    -e36 suspension + brake swap

    The Pics:










    The box is circular and made of Fiberglass... like 4 lbs!! :P Carpet is coming soon for the amp rack.
    Please don't flame the pink washer fluid... the blue stuff goes in when that runs out :oops:

    So what do you guys think?

                Car looks nice. Love the lights.

                Where are you from? Is that a Cali plate?

                      Welcome to R3v!
                      Your car looks fucking hot.
                      How about some interior shots?
                      Nice choice with the Soundstream amps; their older stuff is very high quality. Which model are those amps? (A friend of mine had a Reference 1000 running 3 JL 10W6s once). What mids are you running in the cab?

                      If you could make a write-up for the fiberglass subwoofer enclosure, you would be fucking awesome!

                        Yes, it's a Cali plate (north of SF). Uhhh... the supersprint sounds really nice when you really get on it, hehe, along with the intake... it really makes first and second gear SOOO enjoyable at 6k or so.

                        I love the smoked ellips also... I still gotta get that lil city light wired up tho, and the sidemarkers need to be wired to blink with them.

                        thx for the welcoming.

                          I'll get some interior shots as soon as I can vacuum and detail it hehe.

                          I am running Infinity Kappa Perfect 6.1's in the front and a Kappa sub. The sub and the comps are both running on separate Rubicon 300W amps.... the sub at 300Wx1 and the comps at 75Wx2.

                          I suppose I can do a write-up on the enclosure... just gotta get a few brand names and technical terminology from my friend who helped me lay it up.

                          If you guys have any questions ("how to's" or "wtf is that?" or whatever) or wanna see anything else just let me know.

                            Ok... here's some interior pics and some other misc. ones as well.





                            The Kappa Perfects and one of the amps.





                            Here's the Ireland Engineering swaybar reinforcements... these bolt through the trunk floor, so small pieces of the dampening material were scraped away, that shit is like an inch thick!



                            My uncle welded the tabs a lil beefier for me... just gotta clean them off again and slap some paint on there.



                            I love these tips.



                            This is from my black e30 325is, right after I did my brakes and got the wheels.
                            Poor car was taken by my Indian-giving parents before I could swap in a 5 speed.
