    M52/Zf Alpine White 1986 E30

    ~Skip to page 9 for current updates~ e36 and 2002 content as well..



    In august 2015, just got back from china and had some graduation gift money saved up plus i work part time, i've always wanted a second car because a 2015 honda fit just wasn't doing it for me , i do like the 6mt though. My dad started my interest for these cars, starting when i was little and he had a 633csi e24 which i always saw him leaning over the hood on. Anyways I have a friend who owns a 91 325i sedan, and his dad owns an e30 m3, an alpina rep build, and maybe 4 other e30's. I had been asking my friend if his dad was selling any and he told me a 2.7 stroker, looked at it ( the very same day i got back to america ) and loved it.... or thought I did





    Replacing alot of things on my 325es and bought these Fel-pro Manifold gaskets . Apparently they are coated with graphite







    There's nothing wrong with these, posted this for people to write whatever about these gaskets, Because i cant find on here anyone who has ever installed them.



    ; And I will be posting creating another thread with everything i put on soon. Here are a couple pics of her

                      In all seriousness to the OP, post up about it.. make a DIY write up, photo it, preserve it.. chances are someone will google one day how to do what you are doing and you can be a source of information for them. Have at it, pal.

                          I hope you clean them up before using them.

                            This.

                            I always use bleach, the high pH level helps cut through the graphite from the manufacturing machines.
