Hello!
So I started a thread on this car a while back but for the life of me cannot find it/I was in the wrong mindset when creating it so it is not as thorough as I would've liked it to be, hence, this new thread.
On a nice morning on May 17th, 2014, I bought my first e30! A 1985 Zinno 325e coupe. I named it Charlie after my favorite TV show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Ok, now onto business. I bought it as a summer project car and boy it really sure is a project car
The PO did an awful bumper tuck and straightpiped it with the most heinous exhaust I have seen in my life and it is rather hard to breathe when the car is idling lol I knew it needed some bodywork which is what I was planning on doing before I even saw the car. It does, however, need:
Rear Hub/Bearing, Valve Adjustment, Tbelt, Thermostat, Waterpump, Valve Adjustment, Catalytic Converter/Rear section, Wheels, Tires, Kick panel, clutch/pressure plate, headliner, and some cosmetic stuff here and there
My future plans for this car include:
-All maintenance mentioned above
-Mtech 1 kit
-Front and rear Euro Bumpers
-Mtech 1 Steering Wheel
-Basketweaves
-S52 Swap
-Some new seats (ebay racing seats are fine honestly)
-And again, some cosmetic stuff here and there (z3 antenna, rear deck dye, boots/shifter)
That is all for now! I currently have the Guibo, CSB, Tbelt kit (waterpump,seals, thermostat etc.)
here is another thread where my wheel fell off while driving..why I need a new hub/bearing
Here is a video to the engine while running, please chime in and let me know if that ticking is just the m20 wanting a valve adjustment (might be hard to hear due to awful straightpipe)
