Aah, the pseudo-jacking-point-rusty-nonsense-problem! It's like popping your e30 cherry really! Sure you're aware, they don't do anything useful, so you might as well remove the other one while you're attacking the shell. Looking forward to following another mental project! Ha ha! The way things ar...

Don't forget to put the springs back in winkeye That unit is mint though! Would love somewhere like that to keep my weighbridge dodgers. Top find mate. :cool: 8) I thought it looked uber cool with it sitting on the deck! It will be getting some sexy Gaz Golds at some point in the near future, which...

Cheers guys! I've decided I'm going to go with a Custom Cages roll cage, and just get it without all the profiled ends, as they seem to bit a bit debatable in fitment, so I may as well save a few pounds and profile them myself! Not sure which material to get it in though, as the CDS is actually ligh...

Got a bit more work done on the E30 today down at the unit... Took the front wings off, which weren't in too bad nick, and had a poke around at the front corners of the floor, which were a bit rusty. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v483/Rob77/E30%20project/P1010005.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/a...

So then chaps, a bit of an update... I had moved the BMW into a friends garage, but couldn't really do anything in there as it was a bit small, and he was only really helping me out by keeping the car dry, and I didn't want to take the mickey by getting grinders / welders out and using his electrici...

So is this the B234T engine as found in the Volvos?

This is an excellent project mate, and a has given me a few good ideas for mine! (Putting the Audi 20v 5 cylinder engine in my E30)

My number is 07792 268 792 if anyone wants to come up this weekend...

Just letting people know, I will be around for most of the day tomorrow, and if there are any bits from my car which people would be interested in, please just drop me a PM to get in touch! I'm in Nottingham, just off j25 of the M1, and have a garage full of pretty much every part that was on my E30...

Just read this from start to finish, and have lost a few hours of my life, but MAN was it worth it!

Absolutely stunning craftsmanship mate, truly awesome!

The final pictures look brilliant; it looks brand new!

(Sorry for bumping the thread back up, but I had to praise your work...)

i cant see how ur get 10's under the rear without extended archs these are 9s on the rear http://www.sysmyth.co.uk/bmw/e30zone.jpg Now bear in mind thats on air bags and the rim is nie on the wheel arch lip :eek: oohh yyeesss!! that is what im on about!! nice motor mate!!! What wheels are they?

Not actually sure what colour mine is to be honest! Is there a paint code under the bonnet?

Never interested me, as I will be re-painting a different colour!

Thanks for all the replies again everyone!

Can anyone advise what the engine would be worth?

Its from an auto so hasn't been driven hard, and has only done 65k. (Its a 2.0i)

Anyone know when the classified forum will be back up?

Cheers!

Quote of the week so far. Class.

I must say I did quite like that too!

That car is beautiful! What size wheels (diameter and width) have you got?

Rosc0PColtrane wrote:To be fair, when embarking on such an undertaking, you want to be sure it's going to last. So I understand why you'd want a decent shell.

Indeed. I just wanted the best starting point possible.

Well it did take me 4 months to find a mint shell without a sunroof, so whatever variant it was it would still be getting the same treatment. I always knew it would be a love / hate project, mainly hate with the purists, but you can't please everyone! Too late anyway now, as its already stripped dow...

GrindCulture wrote:It is a bit of a shame to kill such a nice car, but it's really perfect for what you have planned, which should be excellent once done. It's a conundrum!

Indeed! I do feel a bit guilty, but the end result should be a lot better than a mint standard 320i auto!

Bloody hell that is similar!! Yours has fogs and a sunroof, but can't see any other differences!!

Getting rid of quite a few bits to make way for lightweight carbon or g/f replacements...

I am selling the wings, will whip them off over the next few days and get back to you!
Car is in a friends garage, which I am not at now, otherwise I'd do it now!!

Cheers for the replies guys!

Best sort that out then

The fun will start soon!!

Not much. I've got a blue interior I've been trying to get shot of for about 6 months at £80, and that's leather. A cloth set may be less, priced for a quick sale you may only be looking at about £40. Someone will want it though. It's in very nice condition. Cool, that gives me a good idea mate - t...

Reckon anyone will want the full blue interior?! Any idea on what its worth?

I wanted a clean, non-sunroof shell to start with, so needs must I'm afraid!!

EDIT: Waaaaay too slow!

Indeedy it is! Although now its getting the Audi 5 cylinder rather than the Volvo version!

I know its slow / no progress at the moment... If I only I had more time / money!!

What do we reckon the chrome front bumper is worth?

Got your PM gooner1

Take a look mate!

Basically Audi quattro 20V turbo engine, and some tasty bits!

The standard lsd are very reliable upto 400hbp and equivilent torque, however if you want it unbreakable go for the large case diff found on the m535i, this is what the big power boys in sweden use, some mods are required for installation tho. Hmm interesting stuff matey - I'll have a look into tha...

Hi all! I've been a bit slack with the E30 project, and one of the reasons is I have a garage full of bits meaning I can't swing a cat, let alone do anything else! Just wondered if I could ask what bits I've got are worth selling, and what bits are worth scrapping... I've basically stripped my E30 3...
