To all of you that know me, I have built several E30s over the years. I got my first E30 at 16 and have slowly progressed into building better and better cars. I have helped funfgang build his V8 e30 when we were both dumb and 16. But over the years i've been starting to become a perfectionist in my work.
This car I have acquired recently from a friend who started the swap but did not get a chance to finish it. He had already bought some of the parts to do the swap including the s52 and trans. With his lost of interest, I was able to get a car that I plan on building up to my standards.
Here she is in all her beauty. A 1989 Zinno 325i.
Some background on the car:
The car started its life as a 325i with an m20b25. However, a previous owner had a motor installed at some point in its life. This however was a m20b27 but with all the of the b25 intake pieces. The friend Vinnie I bought it from didnt know much about this besides it having a chipped ecu. It then was bought by Vinnie up in NJ and later moved down with him to MD where he started to work on the swap and pulling the strange m20 hybrid.
The car came with some goodies from my friend including a new set of powdercoated GC coils as well as the s52 and zf trans.
I plan on building this car correctly with replacing everything that needs to be replaced. I bought it because my friend was moving and I REALLY wanted to see the car finished. I just really enjoy working on and building E30s as I have built a couple for myself as well as one for my friends dad and also helped with friends' E30s as well.
My latest car I have built for funfgang's dad which is now owned by Stuart himself. This is when it was still in my possession before I handed it over.
Here is my drift/street/fun car that is still a very big work in progress:
And of course, the rallycross car:
My very first E30. A 318is that I rebuilt the motor in.
