This is my third time typing this up. Forgive me if its a brief intro
Starting point:
89 325i
M50 Swap with bolt ons (Flywheel,clutch,chip,headers,exhuast)
325/318 5 Lug
Half gutted interior with sparco's
Goal:
This will be my daily driver and double duty track car. It runs awesome as of now but mainly needs tidying up and tieing up some loose ends. Heat and a/c are gone aswell as the whole heater box. Ive given up on the thought of a/c as all the lines are removed and everything. I NEED to get heat in it to make it through the winter. I would like to finish the interior, its screwed and taped together to make it look somewhat like stock, but I want it to be to look stock with the exception of a Roll bar, no rear seats, and the sparco's.
Plans:
-Wheels/tires. Thinking ESM type A reps. I just dont know if im gonna be able to pull them off as ill need 5x100 to 5x120 adapters and the offset on the wheels is 10 and adapters are pretty thick.
-Convert to coilovers from the IE3/Billy Sport setup. I want adjustability
-Roll bar
-Finish the interior (replace carpet, get glovebox, mighttt put in a back seat just incase i have to bring someone else along, get all missing trim, get headliner,etc)
-Fix all the little rust spots and such. Refinsih and repaint the bumpers and valances.
-Might vinyl wrap it.
-Finish and organize alot of wiring that needs to be done (Blinkers, speakers, reverse lights, fogs, etc)
-Need to figure out a way to get a heater box inthere and run the plumbing for it (not looking forward to this)
This should give me a good place to document what I do and post all my pictures. Speaking of which i cant post any down becuase im in school but I will in a little bit.
