E30 Zone

haha wicked!

finally got the firewall patched up with a new harness hole. The first panel I welded in I wasn't happy with, so I cut it out and made a new replacement. So here we are http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/bangnrb25/IMG_3197_zps9589e75a.jpg I forgot to take some pictures inside the interior of t...

the battle thing is stupid. There was an e30 race car that said LOOSER which had a fully built motor and heap of other performance goodies.

winner was a stock E36 318 with a podfilter and exhaust as a mod..

stupid.

reminds me of that car domain shit

cheers :) Well I pulled the motor on the weekend , pressure washed the bay and got the front skirt to epoxy stage. This way the overlapping joint where the cut out section is will be sealed prior to welding. Ive also placed my new patch in the firewall for the harness gromet, applied liberal amounts...

haha yeh it looks rusty, but its actually garnet piled up from blasting bits inside the car to see how bad the penetration of rust was. yeh I have seen you can get replacement panels, the one in the centre I cut out is like 30 bucks. but NLA by the looks now, other sections are avail by the looks, h...

heres a preview so far.. still some fine tuning new wiring harness hole http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/bangnrb25/IMG_0154_zps044ed979.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/bangnrb25/IMG_0158_zpsb771b01a.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/bangnrb25/IMG_0156_zps3f568787.jpg

some more cutting

pain in the ass

cheers mate, yeh I'm laying down the epoxy on everything!

Had a good sticky beak last night and it looks mickey mouse. But as you say, where do you draw the line to pulling shit apart

http://i1088.photobucket.com/albums/i324/andeepsingh/E30%20Restoration%20Build/file_zpse37bb8d9.jpg With this one - where the hole is next to the tunnel and you have a bit of rust showing on the top RH corner where you've drilled out the spot weld. Could you see that rust before you cut out that se...

looks cool, but that back window needs to be longer imo

and here we go for adventure number 3

Upol Gravitex HS - set at 60PSI

Looks near on identical to the OE finish at that pressure, 80psi was too flat. however OE seems to have some sort of rubberised undercoating, This is more of a bitumen base. Either way very happy with the outcome of it.

Been a while since an update, finished up that corner, and sprayed the back end of the car. + Laying down the stone guard for lower section. http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/bangnrb25/IMG_9400_zps98a91cb4.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/bangnrb25/IMG_1524_zps7420bf78.jpg cant ev...

theres air in it

yeh.. theyre not fast at all lol. Wouldnt waste money trying to get measly NA horses from it either

Turbo it and be done with it. only way its going to feel fast and put you in your seat

drive around on them for a week.. new brakes can take a bit to start biting

put steering lock on loosen the centre nut and undo it a few turns *but keep the nut on the collumn" stick key in the ign and turn to ACC wiggle the wheel side to side and up and down to wiggle it off the spline whilst pulling backwards slightly. then once it loosens up remove the nut and pull the w...

strip the lamps down, put in oven at 150 degrees for 5 minutes.. Carefully lift the glass off the housing. Dont pry with force if it doesnt budge, otherwise you will crack the glass. if the glass is still stuck down then you will need more heat. You can use a small flat head to get the lifting start...

been a bit slow lately, had a rest from sanding.. and after seeing what was ahead I wanted to start with a clean head. Found a repair that had been done by a panel shop at some stage in the cars life. must of been a cheap repair! car should of had a sidepanel done but I suspect the repair was done a...

god dam that is nice

"cough" E39 "cough"

best cruisers

this thing is amazing.. love the original hubcaps in mint condition.

if only it wasnt the slug of the bunch

I'm amazed on how much rust is in that red e30. Is there a lot of salt on your roads or something? Never seen suspension components rust like that here in Australia

cute garage.

god dam! Very nice indeed

It will have more to do with the polisher, grade of pad and skill level with the machine than the polish itself.

ive got a rupes bigfoot 21 and you could use the shittest polish and still get a mirror.

yeh part of that hole rusted to the seam :( so need to remove all that seam sealer, plus the deadener on the other side where the wheel arch is, as I have a feeling Its gone to the other side. another spot is the bracket that holds the fuse box. The drain was full of dirt and crap so it was letting ...

such a nice colour. gorgeous!

Yep, spraying inside the boot as well. I have some rust repair work on the firewall which is going to be tricky. The big square hole for the main wiring harness has been eaten away around the edges.. So needs cutting out and remaking a new one.. Yeh I cant wait to finish the car so I can paint my fl...

Had this for a little while now, 89 325i euro spec 4 door. Drove it as a daily for 12 months, has been off the road for a couple of years for a restoration. Couple of pics of how it looked http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/bangnrb25/20130620_124152_zps382ffcb8.jpg http://i752.photobucket.com/...
