yahh's 1986 325e S50+Recaro+BBS RS

[yahh]

Alright guys well its been a fun ride, but i'm done with this e30.









































I found out it has a very slightly tweaked frame as its been driving a bit unpredictably in spirited driving + the twisties. So I will be swapping everything into the Delphin Gray 325 that I bought a few months ago.

The plan is -
Strip Delphin Shell
Prep it for paint
Re-paint it Delphin Gray
Swap everything over from the Blue Shell
HOON

Appreciate. It's not my first go round with turbos, so hopefully it should go pretty smooth.

So is what your saying is the S50 swap wasnt worth it because you still need more powa?

Oh it's definitely worth it. I came from a boosted car and once you have boost it is very hard to go without. The car is plenty quick for spirited driving but I'm shooting for about 350-400.
