1988 325i Touring

[JonFreyr]

Small update, wheels arrive next week....my ported and polished intake manifold and throttle body arrive this week. Sway bars have arrived along with strut-bars for front and rear. Valve cover has arrived along with everything needed to freshen up the head. New brakes and oil-change will be done this coming weekend. Took it out 2 days ago and waxed it, made it ever-so clear that my front valence needs paint ASAP. Everything must be done before the first weekend of may since I am going to visit Nurburgring :)

It doesn't look bad.. But I still like the IS lip better. The car is amazing though.

Finally found a junkyard in Malmo which is a half an hours drive from Copenhagen. Picked up 3 Volvo lips for 16 bucks :) using the nicest one and selling the others. I think it turned out pretty good and was very easy to install. Lowers the car a little but still haven´t scraped it anywhere. And since I had the car on a lift I checked for any damage or rust and the only rust I found was on the diff and exhaust....tiny bit of rust on the rear trailing arm as well :) also discovered that the fenders have already been rolled which saves me a lot of trouble once I get my wheels, which are 9.5X16 in the back and 8.5X16 in front with plenty of lip :)

Curse you europeans and your ability to easily get tourings, if I had 7k to just blow then maybe I would have one.

Finally a short video....had the girlfriend stand outside and it´s f***cold :) the sound in the video doesn´t do the car justice....sounds nicer than my mobile can handle :D

[socalE30]

nice!

[JonFreyr]

Minor update.....next week I pick up new brake discs and pads. Going to change some other stuff while I´m at it, hoses for engine-cooling....switch for the reverse light and might get started on Powerflex install. The head comes off in march, valves checked and adjusted and gaskets renewed.

Oh man, that looks so good!!! I like it a lot!

Side blinkers installed by Schmiedmann, they did an absolute shit job and will surely take a foot in the arse as soon as they arrive in hell. The car didn´t have side blinkers when I bought it...but our cars look a lot alike !
