    Not an e30 but........

    Well I've been trying to sell my car to get my first e30 so I've done some work to fix her up! I wrecked my first dub on january 1st after leaving work(black ice and a semi). I thought I'd share what I've done thus far :). I've done nothing to the car cosmetically since I've only had it for 3 1/2 months. Instead, I focused on making it run better.... Also I've started to detail it. Ill share a few pics of the progress and parts... Clutch, 10lb. flywheel, lower transmission mount bushings, t-stat, t-stat housing, repainted the charger pipes, K&N Filter, Cleaned the maf and the throttle body of blow-by oil along with the charger pipes, blacked out font emblem, Fixing the coil pack, New battery on the way...








    BEFORE

    AFTER




    Almost done BUT FIRST.........JB Weld love for the coilpack.









    Cheers

        As much as I like your car and would like to my girl into something similiar, why come on a BMW forum looking for love for a VAG car.

        Just saying...............

          Well I thought this forum would have more of a love for cars in general. Besides, I posted in the off topic lounge. MY BAD. Even a negative comment is better than none at all i guess. Thanks for the replys.

            And to be honest, Im not really much of a dub guy anymore either. S h i t breaks too often I need to move on to something less heavy. I love the vr though. Probably my favorite sound. lol

                    Im a little confused....Why do some of you hate mkiv's so much? I know its not a bimmer, but at least its german. It's like the redheaded stepchild to a porsche.lol. And to be honest, yea....It IS a jetta. I'm just asking for respect of the work, not respect of the car. This thread was more to show what I can do to clean things up. I know its not the best lookin car.

                        I'm pretty much in the same boat. I found my e30.....I just can't get this damn thing sold... For $7200 none the less.

                              we have sweet spots for mk2s... and have a tendency to frown on mk4s (almost as much as e46s.. lol)


                              But.. cool dub nevertheless.
