My First E30 Project...

**UPDATE**

Just bought some US Ellipsoids today off of NOMAD, great person to deal with btw. Should be coming soon and will install ASAP. Pics will be coming too! Saving up for suspension right now. Need clean full interior for my dad's 88, so if anyone's got anything shoot a PM my way!

**UPDATE**

Did some cluster swappage and modding today.

Didn't sharpie the MPG needle yet.

Took the cluster out with the steering wheel there. Bad idea.



The cluster:


After taking the steering wheel off, it's in.

**UPDATE**

Been driving around, and as soon as i drive 9.9 miles, the odo broke. Now I got to re-gear this thing right? Something like that.

**UPDATE**

Installed US Ellipsoids about an hour ago. Things are looking good. Pics will come when my camera charges.

**UPDATE**

Odometer started rolling again, but it's rolling too fast. It seems as if it's rolling in kilometers instead of miles. Anyone know what's up?

New satellite technology. Ze Germans tapped into your E30.


Great progress man. Good luck on the odo.

hahah NOOO!!!!

Thanks man! I just realized it's only been a little over a month since I got this car! Now I'm dead broke. Lol

**UPDATE**

Just got my car back today and it got new front control arms and bushings, and front and rear rotors and pads. The car stops on a dime now. Also my cluster rolls to fast still and my turn signal stock won't go back to non clicking after I turn. Anyone help?

**UPDATE**

Within the last couple of weeks I fixed the ODO. Now were rolling right. Broke a low-beam lens on the ellips' and my clutch apparently went out. It is very spongy and doesn't disengage to go into gear at all. I filled up the brake fluid and pumped the brakes, and that didn't work. Does this mean I need a new clutch? Help me out.

**UPDATE**

Clutch fixed on 10/16 and the car is running perfect now. I think I'm holding out on everything until spring. Just going to DD it and treat it well.
