    Looks great!

    Figure out if those headers will fit yet? ;) ;)

      According to vague posts from 2006, they fit, snug, but should work.

          Put the revshift giubo on


          Cleaned the injectors because they were nasty


          Test fit the radiator


          And after long frustration and headahces, finally got her started and the wheels turning:o



          If only i had some HEADERS *wink* *wink* I can start fabbing exhaust.

          I'm thinking headers vbanded to ypipe to 2.5 stainless with a muffler here and their.

              Delphin is one of my favorite e30 colors. M30's are pretty cool too.

                  All done! Not much left to do other than weld in the bungs for 02 and wideband sensors then paint.





                  Here's a quick video of the exhaust. No pictures but i built 2.5" to vibrant res and muffler, sounds great and not too much drone.

                    Damn, that thing sounds mean as hell! Can't wait until I have enough $$ for an m30.

                      Awesome work! We're running the same exhaust setup too!

                        Is the same as what I have on the e34....only I'm 3" pipe.

                        It's religious.

                          Things are beginning to get saucey! Got a couple parts in the mail. OEM headgasket and head reseal kit and arp headstuds. Found a good deal on a used goodntight turbo manifold so I grabbed that aswell. I guess bewst is happening faster than I thought.

                          This bay is looking grizzly. She needs some touch up work


                          Typical m30 fashion, these were hand tight


                          Overall everything looked pretty good

                          Also took some time to get rid of this ghetto coolant hose connector....pvc doesn't like heat.

                          So Shiny

                          I'd say she looks much better! Just need to choose a snail now :D

                              BWEEEEEEST.

                              delphine is my all time favorite E30 color. I'm probably biased as that was the color of my first E30 love. keep it up!!
