Just wondering why its here instead of member's rides. Surprise s50 swap hopefully

I think white would be hot. Or yellow. Im done for yellow.

I saw it done on an m20 with 210hp N/A... it had triple webbers. That was a year ago on bimmerforums

almond or white. i had both on past motors, just go the extra mile for powder coating..

[5Toes]

Im not going to powdercoat, in fact I probably wont even paint it now.

You should try to get a job somewhere dude! You've got a shit ton of motivation and patience with this shit and the only thing holding you back is money!!

These cars are generally bulletproof but they aren't cheap.. How are your tires looking? Brakes? Fluids? It all comes quick and fast!!

[5Toes]

Tires - Great
Brakes - Not squishy
Oil has been bought
Diff needs attention Id imagine, it whines a WEE bit

Yeah Im going to start applying at Lowes and the local Napasm autozone, etc. soon. Apparently Oreilly cant hire me.

Bought a test light tonight... 3M $ at walmart (thanks Luke). I despise Walmart, but they are so cheap its hard to resist. A bottle of rain-x there is $2 cheaper, and my oil is too. I also bought Bosch walmart line blades for $7 each, also Luke's recommendation

[kid325e]

Nice, got to love good deals on parts/supplies!

[5Toes]

Parts came from Blunt today, Ill take a pic later.

I need a can of SEM trim black... my wiper arms have some rust. I pulled em off today, that was easy. Put on Walmart Bosch blades... nicer than my Mom's Anco's... quieter too.

This stuff right? http://semproducts.com/Catalog.asp?prod=133

Nice project...glad to see you finally got your e30

As far as the trim paint goes...I just went to oreilly and got some bumper coating. I've had no issues with it...

About $5 a can
