Massimo, I may be on that cruise but not too sure. I may be stranded at home, with this in the crash shop because some n00b hit me and I need it fixed before rust starts developing.M20B23 Euro 323i - The Legend Of Ron Burgundrot

Mine is a bit more than a dent and it's in such a bad place (rear quarter). One of my father's friends is a panel beater and he said he can get it pretty much perfect without any body filler, then just a small layer (1mm) to make it mint and paint it for $500 + cost of materials.

Thanks, dude. I love it too, when it works. E30's :roll:
Definitely going to get my dad's friend to do the repairs. Even if it doesn't come out perfect, a full re-spray is planned for next year, so I could have a whole section welded in when I get that done.
The plan is to source either an M Tech 1, or Zender kit before it gets painted. Gold/Bronze pinstripes will be coming too.Last edited by OniKyan; 10-24-2013, 01:50 AM.M20B23 Euro 323i - The Legend Of Ron Burgundrot

So, I bought myself one of these for my parts/track car.
I paid $100 for the engine, ECU and loom.
It's a Toyota 1MZ V6. All Alloy, 3 litre, 24 valve. Makes 156kw at 5,800RPM and 328nm at 4,400RPM. Same bolt pattern as Toyota S series engines so it should be pretty easy to convert to RWD. Only problem I may encounter is with the starter motor.
Obviously mine doesn't look as good as the one in the pictures and I still have to tear it out of the 1998 Camry.M20B23 Euro 323i - The Legend Of Ron Burgundrot
