I’ve been up to alot of things . Whoever needs parts off my e30 , I’m doing a black friday sale . Pics uploaded tomorrow of what’s left . New acquirement : 1986 528e 5 speed . I love this car . I traded my e46 330i for it .odo says 260k (more than that of course being broken ) Its been super good to me , I need to do the routine m20 maintenance on it however.

which cars are in play and what this build thread is about lol. Keep it up, I'll catch up

Not precise detail shown but it is kind of my entry into working on cars . Shows better in the real world than on this thread . Mainly it is a build thread on my first project , the e30 , a car I got ripped off on bad but chose not to give up on for the experience alone . Kind of why i want to restart a thread but it isn’t a priority at this time.

So which car are we on now? Re-title it to Car-Carousel or Russian-Roulette.

The vert. The e10 , the e30. Russian roulette sounds good.

I’m kind of over this thread . I want to make a new one when i get another phone .. or whenever . The 318iS turned into a 328i and a vert in one day . Sold to junkyard , and friend with no license had this vert sitting outside of his house since december . Has a straight piped muffler delete from the mid-section- back . 160k miles , dove grey interior , runs fine , going to do all of the routine maintenance though. Sold the grey coupe to the junkyard for the same amount of money i paid for the vert . Which if you can imagine is very little. Clean title by the way.




In this picture , the sr was disconnected from the trans , it has since been fitted with a clip . I was replacing the shift boot and when I went to pull the knob off it disconnected ... took all of 5 minutes to replace.

Kept my red tails from the coupe.

s14 crank?

Yes , 92mm m30 pistons , rods gotta do my research about . As well as the rest of the stuff , 92mm bore should be safe for an m10 block.

and probably stroked 2.3l . More on that later

Current story on the e10 . Awaiting delivery on this roundie shell that is caged and paint ready . Need to pull the rest of the parts from the first shell , then this thing will be stored until garage is safe and organized enough , while it is away for paint I will finish the swap. Shell is already prepared for fiberglass Alpina pigcheeks already . Rust free car here ! :)







The old caged shell from idaho is worth:

M10
4 speed
Pedals
Whats left of wiring
Brake booster
Driveshaft
Diff
Pedal set
Steering wheel
dash
Cluster
Doors
E brake assembly

For $1.4k taking into account $500 plus shipping from boise , not bad on all the parts . Will be 5 speed swapping it , having m10 rebuilt and probably stroked 2.3l . More on that later , just a teaser .
