60% done my winter project sleeper.

[BmwEvoSport]

Well lets see , the car started as a 91 325is auto. It was all bone stock and still has the original paint . Nothing other then the front chin spoiler has bin repainted. It started to be my winter project and so far i have done the following.

New control arms.
H&R springs.
Bilstein shocks.
E30 M3 steering rack.
Full interior swap from crims red to black.
Momo race wheel.
aa shift knob.
New dash.
New heater core.
New brakes.
Euro grills.
A good cleaning.

Oh and for the hell of it,
95 E36 M3 drive line with
a 5 seed swap just so a little
extra umph.

Here are some pics of when i first got the car about 2 years ago witch
sat in my back yard for about a year and half untill i started working
on the car right before thanksgiving and where it is now.

Before:

You have a running swap must be nice. What is in store for the other 40% ?

[BmwEvoSport]

Great job-looks great!



How often does the fan hit the radiator?

Never , Im running stiff motor mounts and the car had never bin hit so
i have good room between the fan and the rad.

Day pics are coming soon.

The other 40% is :

Repaint the car.
finish the little things in the motor bay.
bigger brakes.
new wheels.
reado the headliner in black.
bet a leather shift knob.
black out the chrome trim.
maybe some tints.
and last maybe a system.

the thing is about the car its really by beater
so im trying not to go to crazy with it.

hey nice sleeper

[SamE30e]

Awesome man!!! Looks mint.

[cabin]

Nice car! Why did you swap out the red interior though? I love the red, especially on black!


That fan looks really close to the radiator, hopefully the water pump has no play in the shaft. My fan took the radiator out in my previous E36 M3 for that reason. Hopefully the same won't happen to you, at least you have upgraded motor mounts to further prevent that from happening.

I echo what the other fella's were sayin. That fan is dangerously close, do a fan delete man, it will clean things up anyway. Nice car none the less. better pics would be nice.
