Oh, fuq- I've been snooping around for an E34 wagon, because dadmobile.

THAT is the ultimate LS1 repository.

I suppose tubbing it would be going too far?

That would be a fun swap. Manual or automatic? Would be the perfect car to integrate all the ancillary stuff. A/C, cruise, P/S, etc

Need to update your sig to read "LS swap all the things"

I work on other things too!

I really like it. But I really couldn't care less for the 2.7. It takes a crazy amount of effort/money to get beyond the 450whp mark. After doing a full stage3 setup supporting mods on a friends allroad I don't have any interest in mod'ing this engine. I took the car on trade for my old audi 90 with the intention of LS swapping it at some point but there are always projects ahead of it. So I just manual swapped it and ditched the panda interior for black with some b8 recaros. I think I only have a hand full of pictures. It was a great winter beater until I popped a turbo.




Mine is obviously not the one with the FMIC. I was doing an install on a buddies car.


The hatch is at the body shop right now getting fixed and retinted.

It definitely made me appreciate wagons a whole lot more.

send me a message when you want to sell it. we'll see how long my current e91 hangs out for. b5s4 is always an itch i wanted to scratch and i don't need to make crazy power (or want to, for that matter - i'm getting old)

Where did everyone in the NW go?

I got my LSe30 running. I've been commuting from Tacoma to Seattle all week. With no hood. It's fun. I have big grin.

Let's set a minor record and have two posts in one DAY!
Finally got my trim repainted, and of course, waited to buff the paint out until I put the trim back on. 'Cause why not make more work for myself?
Finished the buffing and waxing last night. Seemed like a good time to post a pic of the old girl..

My LQ9 and e30 are finally in the same shop, at the same time...

[TobyB]

M54b30 out of disgusting e46 vert and sitting in the barn.
E30 sitting in the back corner just needing an engine.

60,000 other things to do, but I want to start making 2 into 1...
crap. Do I have a clutch? I do not remember...

t
bumping thread, no?

Sharing some photos from the Group 2 cars and coffee. Only 1 e30 there but maybe someone here owns one of the other cars...
