Beckster's M52 325IS

I got a great deal on it, I put atf in the car and I got it bled out in two minutes.

I was just wondering because I am swapping an SETA 2.7i from an e28 into my e30 and it currently has the E28 PS pump on it. I did not know if there was some advantage to the E28 PS pump.

Did the lines all route like normal to the e30 reservoir location?

Like the suspension set up!

Why the e28 PS pump?

Installed Garagistic transmission mounts today!




I also swapped out my power steering pump with an e28 pump which I had to bend and cut the brackets to make fit.

Updates.

Its time for some updates. I got my fender pulled out and my bumper sort of back in place.


I found the reason my car was so difficult to get into 2nd and 4th gear (my shift carrier was not connected to the rear bushing, thanks obama.)

So I used the garagistic delrin shifter rebuild kit to replace all my worn out shift carrier bushings, I also threw on a Z3 lever and it feels great.
(excuse the ghetto shift knob, I need a new one.)




I also picked up a set of mint vaders, if anyone has adapter brackets let me know before I buy them new.




Now things are spicing up, I decided I wanted to build real coilovers so here is what I chose to fullfill this desire.

- GC conversion kit.
- Front Koni 325ix insert's.
- Rear KYB AGX camaro shocks.




Euro Plate Filler.




Ebay headers I picked up cheap.




Things I have ordered or purchasing soon.
- IS lip.
- Matt-B mtech cloth boots.
- Contitech Timing belt kit.
- Depo Smiley's.
- MT2 steering wheel.
- Some fancy front valence?
- Poly engine mounts.


I'm still debating wether I want to keep my rocker panels black or repaint them alpine.

Next step, paint rocker panels.

That is next on the list.

Decklid spoiler .

Took off the deck lid spoiler because it was in nasty shape.



Sanded it down , primed , painted it black and here it is sitting on the car.



So much better.
