Damn, just read through this whole thread, really nice job with the car. You sir have gotten me off my lazy ass to get some work done on my car. Again love everything you've done with the car.

[SickE30]

Absolutely incredible build man, what width are your wheels? And what size spacers did you go with? Where from? Did you put them in the rear? Did you have to roll the front fenders @ all? Again man, incredible build my hat is off.

sick build dude

[tak7]

Wow! Just read the whole thread, nice perseverance! I had seen pics of your car when the wheels were gold and really liked it, now polished takes it too another level. Do that photoshoot already!!!

So I have been busy working on the car and have been stuck doing the same thing.

I decided to buy a moonroof, and I love the way it works, but I can't get it to cycle more than once. Lol, Im working on that.

I had to reupholster the slider since it was the stock e30 beige crap

Slider stripped

Thanks to my mommy the middle supports sewed on


Done!



I had to paint around the moonroof.


Slider installed
Open

Closed


Dry Paint




Installed for one cycle, lol!





Since I had extra material lying around from the slider I decided to do my A pillars.

They were suede and faded, since I no longer have any suede in the car, it didnt match well

This is why people say to use UV treated material. This was less than a year in the sun

Material cut

Done


I also installed a new Chrome kidney thanks to Levent at Guten Parts!



I think this may be the problem with the sunroof, it is supposed to have a little stick poking out. I hope it is instock at the dealer

I have a small update. There arent many, because there is not much left to do. I am on the look out for an LSD as my next mod.

My iX booster was bad. I think there was a hole in it. Maybe I bought it that way, or while shortening the rod, welding made a small hole?
What would happen is, as the car is on, driving or not eventually the brakes would close.

Porsche 944 booster, painted and cleaned

Threading the booster

Shortening the Rod

Booster removed


New one in

Bleeding the brakes


It was harder than it looks, lol.

Sorry for the iPhone pics.

By far the best 4door on here, so much work into this car, looks great!!! You've done awesome work and props for all the work you have done.

I want a moonroof. let alone my sun roof. Its stuck shut :( Broken guide.

Keep up the good work. Look forward to seeing more. Also, didn't you say there would be a proper photoshoot? I only saw one, and the car has transformed since then.

So keep your word :)

[A_Whelan]

Just flipped through this thread, wow. Good job man! Really a nice build and an inspiration to get shit done with mine. Looking forward to that photoshoot and congrats on the car!

[RUFFLZ]

you literally did EVERYTHING on your own to this car..from paint to swap
fucking amazing man..sad to see it go.

[DTM190]

What a read! You have done very well

[Wh33lhop]

Wow, this thing has come a LONG way. I'm curious though, is there a reason you stuck with the super eta tach? Seems you have outgrown it with that M50.. ;)

Thank you. I don't plan to let it go just yet. Atleast I hope not...

Honestly I have never thought much into it. Now that I do, it kind of bothers me. Could I just swap out the tach, or I have to do the whole cluster?

[Wh33lhop]

Just the tach and the coding plug on the front of the cluster.
