Saw that on Pierz's facebook....looks awesome man. Rough idea of when it'll all be finished? It'll be good to see a front running 4-cyl E30 out there.

Approved. Well done.

The motor rebuild is going to be so worth it.

Update!
So on the weekend I took the rear subframe/suspension out, fuel tank out and put the new frame and suspension in as well as bolting up my wheels with 20mm spacer :D Tomorrow I might consider taking the front subframe out and get a friend to modify it for extra strength. After that it is off the get the damage on the front fixed and have the guards modified as I think clearance may be an issue! Roll cage has been delayed a bit as I missed my first appointment so will have to wait about 4 weeks. Here is a bit of a teaser pic!

I cleaned up the interior this afternoon with some petrol and a vacuum, turned out pretty well. I will give it another scrub on the weekend after I start grinding some brackets off. I will speak to my roll cage guy this week an organize a date for him to start his magic. I also found there was quite a big dent in the floor below both the drivers and passenger side seats. This must have been from the previous owner. I got my trusty hammer out and sorted that out in a hurry! It looks a bit rough so I will tidy it up on the weekend. Doesn't have to look super smooth as the seats will cover it up. I also have a few sexy ideas for the foot area with a seat of these in black http://www.turnermotorsport.com/show...l-transmission
I will also have a carbon fiber false floor made as I have a friend who makes composite parts for a living! I'm just waiting to here back from turner to see if they fir RHD. I will also be getting crazy with the grinder this weekend as I want to car to weight around the 850kg mark with a cage. So with the figure a lot has to come out!
Here are some pics of what the clean interior looks like and the damaged floor.
