So my euro 323 is now maybe a daily beater.
Luckily i found a clean title 1984 Henna 325e for cheap. it came with pretty clean sport interior, nice dark grey carpet, and a clean body.
Here's what it looked like when i first picked it up
Took out M20 B27 with bad timing belt
We got the e-bimmer ready for the transplant and starting switching over all the goodies from the 323. Then we realized the headers for the S50 were welding in and needed to be cut. We decided to put some V-bands on there as to not run in to any more problems. (Good luck finding 2" v-bands
Got the rear 5 lug (Z3) all together and in the car. But then soon realized its stance was.... well a lil south of the border.... so i consulted the god himself (mr325)for info on this. Needless to say its coming back out and we're swapping the bearings, hubs and brakes etc. over to the e30 trailing arms to suck the wheel back in alittle.
i really liked the cross bracing on the Z3 arms, so it might be something to mess with before it goes back in.
after getting the e-bimmer ready we finally got the S50 in there.
Soon to come:
front 5 lug
button up odds n ends
brake stand
a lil taste of the henna lifestyle
