M60 with a bad HG just popped up for sale locally for $150... I WAS going to turn it into a coffee table but now I'm thinking about swapping it into my E30. You inspire me
Killer build dude! I love your attention to detail and the creativity (exhaust is an awesome solution!)
What management are you going with for your hybrid motor? And id go for a set of CCW's when the time comes...
Keep it up and i'll be following. Cheers!
Thanks man! Management will be a stock 404 DME with a chip, unless I end up with a set of S62 ITB's, in which case I'll have to look at standalones. CCW's or iForged Senekas for show, the syle 42's for driving. I just nailed the motor together last night... just try to keep moving along...

Ha... cheap enough to at least consider it, anyway. I say do it, but then I'm biased, lol!:)
So I'm on vacation until the 24th... no updates until then. I have some parts coming in while I'm gone, like an MT2 wheel, rear seat bottom and a set of springs for the front. I also got in the EVO bumper parts from Germany to put the bumper together properly. Slow process, but steady, nonetheless...:):):)
Well it's the 23rd and I have to say I'm gettin really antsy to see the next update on this epic project.
Beautiful work.
Haha... well, I'll say that I'm plenty antsy to do some work on it! Don't get me wrong, the time away was great, but all the driving gives you waaay too much time to think about not working on it, lol! We just got home about 2 hours ago, so I'm back at it, starting tomorrow... Not sure what day this week I'll have an update, but I'm itchin' to do some work, so it'll be soon... and thanks man!
Wow, just read through all 31 pages, nice build. Love the fuel cell/muffler placement.
Thanks man! Now if I can just get it done over the winter so I can drive it in the spring, I'll be psyched, lol! It's slowly starting to look like something now, though...
So I have started working on the harness, which is pretty boring, but still necessary. There is a lot of un-necessary wiring in the harness I have removed, which has trimmed it down significantly. ABS, all the HVAC wiring, miscellaneous lighting wiring that won't be used, have all been eliminated. Some runs have to be extended in the front, so I can tuck the harness and I have to extend the fuel pump and fuel level wiring further to the rear of the car, since the tank is now in the trunk. The nice thing is I have 3 harnesses, so I can use the same wiring colors to extend everything, making it look OE and also easier to work on, since it will all still match the factory schematics. I'll see if I can get a few pictures of the harness all spread out on the shop floor on Sunday, when I'm over at the shop. Pretty lame update, I know, but it has to get done...
