well its monsoon season outside, so i thought i would start my build thread.
im just going to preface this with saying that this is not the nicest e30 you are ever going to see. but its mine.
picked it up for 1600, 194k on the clock.
1990 325is
5spd
originally white, black respray. its not so bad, but not so good.
guy had a good amount of records, no mods done to the car, only maintenance.
bought it,
drove it,
cleaned it out,
swapped in a new steering rack (old one leaked),
bought some basketweaves,
changed all the fluids(oil, transmission, diff),
changed the timing belt and waterpump,
put on the 4-spoke i had chillin in the other bimmer,
new stereo head unit,
snapped some pics.
these pics are from after i smoked the tails and blacked the kidneys. didnt like it, switched them back to stock.
sorry my camera isn't better:
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm dat ass








since then,
ive pulled all the tint out,
got new shift boot and ebrake boots,
e30 leather ebrake handle
mtech 1 steering wheel
finished the shadowline
hella lights on rally style lightbar
swapped the seats in from the white car. tan comfort seats, with some rattiness, but they arent as bad and at least they match.
on the list:
suspension (Ive got all the parts, they just need to find their way onto the car) CHECK
roof rack CHECK
zhp shift knob JK FEBI-BISTEIN CHECK
oem floormats
magnaflow muffler
eurogrills
ellipsoids
