Bagged E30, S52 swap, never ending build - Shaved bay + more

[efficient]

real clean!

[DER E30]

Dat e34! And those wheels that look good on everything!

[NickL]

Update, worked on the car a bit. Started stripping away at the insulation/sound deadening/heat resistant shit on the firewall. Pulled the front end off the car (complete bitch because of the tucked bumper), pulled the harness back a bit where ill begin to delete un needed things and clean it up. Pulled the fenders to prepare for the tuck.

My jank ass way of "untucking" the front bumper to get to the shock bolts



Mess of bullshit


Passenger side stripped of all wiring/accessories


Back on the ground



And some E34 porn for you, I bought this car and rebuilt it and sold it to a friend. Was haggard, sitting out behind a house with a broken timing belt and some other issues. But was really solid and originally a Cali car. Every time I see it now I wish I didn't get rid of it. Some shots I took

I wanted to but after more thinking I don't really have the time to do the swap with school. Maybe in the summer.

I feel you with the no time thing. My s50 has just been sitting in my garage for over a month just begging to be put in. Only downside of college.

holy balls. great car man

I like where this is going.

I thought you were going the m60 route though?

Me too!

Current state of the car: Motor is yanked for a minor refresh, ABS will be deleted, full wire tuck, and the bay will be shaved. Keep watching for more updates.

Ooo shiny. On a serious note the new wheel setup is badass, not that the whole car isn't but it those wheels tho...

[lookitsranday]

Hehehehehe

[mbonanni]

Ooooh lordy I want bags

[NickL]

goodness gracious. fucking sick

Thank you!

i wish i lived closer, i would have a blast helping build cars with you on my spare time! specs on bags? you said it was cheaper then gc coils?!?!

Airlift 75561 universal fronts, air house 2 rears. Autopilot v2 management.

With manual management it is cheaper then a GC setup. With v2 it is more expensive.

Fucked around with the car today. Cleaned up the harness wiring and fan wiring, replaced my loud ass alternator with a reman bosch. Swapped out all the old lights in the car with new white LED's, dome lights, trunk light, license plate lights and glove box light. Installed a 12" sub and amp I had laying around to make my music a little more enjoyable. Dynamatted behind the rear seat to help with compressor noise and to purify the bass a little too. Replaced my rear shock mounts and realized that my rear shocks are too long and are holding me up. Aired the car out with no shocks and the fender sat right in the stretch of the tire so Ill probably do Camaro shocks before H20 since they're a little shorter bodied. And installed my sweet M3 oil cap haha.

Overall a productive day.
