picked up this thing on sunday
this will be my 2nd car for track, autox, weekend whatever. still keeping my 2005 scion tc that is my DD.
1985 325e 2.7L
some more pix
im so gonna drop that bitch to the ground
yes original color is burgundy lol
duct taping my elbow intake gives me 50hp.
door fucking creaks like hell when i open it
seats are from a sport model. has some nice bolsters still.
steering wheel is actually straight in that pic. i need to fix that :o
the cluster
a little dent.
some extra parts
the sport max. i might end up selling these after i get new tires on them. these are too flashy for the bmw especially with the flat black paint. i also need lighter wheels :o
if only it shined like that everyday haha
only mods are
brand new sportmax 002 15x8 +0 wheels on some shit daytonas
KYB shocks
has LSD
sachs stage 1 clutch
paint actually looks worse than it is in the pics.
motor has a lot of miles (approx 264k) but its bulletproof. it starts up everytime. revs up all the way to a whopping 4.8k LOL. needs an oil change soon though. any hookups on oil filters?
torque is like 171lbs and hp is at a whopping 121HP.
has new shocks and a bunch of bushings replaced. it drives pretty well for a 22 year old car.
all windows/sunroof work.
this will be my first bmw car. i was going for a porsche 944 for a dirt cheap 2nd weekend track car but everyone one of them had problems with the motor. then this came up on Craigslist for cheap.
plans for it:
springs and sways (any reccomendations?)
markd chip
tuck bumper
new tires (RS2s or RT615)
problems thats its got....
1. odometer stopped at 258k. i have a few extra clusters but none them dont match with the 325e. any one have a link on how to fix the odometer?
2. driver side window wont go up, will go down. how much will a window motor cost me?
3. AC does not work. im not really worried about that but the previous owner said it just need a freon recharge.
4. driver's door hinge is almost dead.
5. no major dents or dings except for rear bumper and a slight dent on driver side rear quarter panel.
im lookin forward to learning more about the e30 as i go along. :)
the best part is the e30 community. you guys are pretty well knowledgeable and the parts are so easy to find and cheap as well out. oh and a $200 will get me 24hp and 28lbs of tq. cant say that about the tc. :P
