[The_Diddler]

Some impressive bufty action there Alex, however i feel i must point out that that wheel is full of wrongness.........

[Rav335uk]

Alex, all that "Bufty" action might land you the title of "Diddler2"

going to be alot more bufty action to come

it feels much better than a tech 1 so its staying.... for now anyway

But a 2 door is worth "bufty'ing"

Looking good Alex, very nice

I've got that same amp too

[dimebag_from_hell]

Looks fantastic, Ive been in the mood for a tech 1 for a while.

I wouldn't change anything about the car except the upswept exhaust. Not my cup of tea.

Good luck with it.

[Alex]

Looking good Alex, very nice

I've got that same amp too

is it any good, certainly looks good and comes packaged better than an apple ipod ???

What sub/speakers are you going to be running off it? Mine was powering a 1000W RMS 12" sub and it did very nicely Can't go wrong with VIBE IMO

Them for the front, ive got some nakamichi 6.5" speakers for the rear but i think i might get another set of them comps and fit them into some premium rear shelf speaker pods

i belive the amp has a high level input to it, might leave the blaupunkt cassette in

[ImysE30]

I had these but the above one's look good

Just a word of advice, check the depth carefully as mine were very deep, magnet was pretty big and took up a lot of space.

[e30topless]

a tech 2 wheel ! the first stage of major councilness to a tech1,

Alex will you be buying a fuel saver magnet or maybe a turbo whistle for the exhaust next?

[Alex]

they dont look too deep, might have a go at fitting it all tomorrow. Really tempted to keep the original blaupunkt radio mind, and use the high input connection

[tonybtonyb]

Look's fab mate you have been busy

One knackerd underdash panel, might get a new from the stealers

Alex, you have my address. post that steering wheel to me and i'll send you the correct Tech1 version
i have as-new pedal boards here too

[Alex]

i wont ever sell that wheel Adi. It cost too much

Will yours be ready for the Pod Adi? We can have a tech 1 Stand

[leeparkes]

Very nice. A black tech-1 is one of my personal favorite E30


But imo no matter how much that wheel owes you Alex it just looks out of place, sell it on and with the proceeds get a tech-1 wheel buftied up.

[Alex]

Looks lovely Lee, i like it. it feels superb to drive with, i forgot how nice it is over a 20 year old tech 1. there bloody awful

Should i buy a hottuning fanny mould that is the question, are they easy to fit, dezzy said there a bit of a fanny on

[Alex]

Done 850 miles in the Sport now and washed it about 6 times its superb, has a few little niggles but what 25 year old cars dont.

Morsels Ummmmm

Got some black carpet dye for the rear shelf as its the wrong colour.

I'am also going to purchase some rear premium speaker pods for the parcel shelf, true executive style



some nice new pedals to go inside when i start on that




Full toolkit naturally, i bought what i thought was the small metal bit for 6 pods that goes throught the park blug tool, however its too big :S





some tweeter pods and speakers



fire extinguiseher



Cruise and OBC somewhere in there



Nice period head unit on the way from germany too, has input for your mp3 player and pre outs too for my amp

[Coops90]

[Fal_325i]

This is another zoners ex-car, very nice, I am liking the tech 1's of late, used to hate them.

[ImysE30]

Get cracking Alex

[Cypriotgeeza]

Gorgeous car you got there mate! Liking the young E30 ownership! Im only 22 myself

Also know what you mean about the overwashing, im the same! my neighbour is always tellin me that im going to rub the paint off with the amount i clean mine!

Looking forward to more pics mate

[Duke137]

Love the car and the stereo is a nice touch mate

[capri_rob]

Alex how much were the brake & clutch pedal rubbers - I need some ?

[Alex]

Alex how much were the brake & clutch pedal rubbers - I need some ?

2 quid each and the accelarator one was about a tenner

[polsta]

excellent work, car looks superb , nice thread to read,was this for sale on the zone a while back ? number plate looks familiar for some reason

stereo looks cool, how much was it ? was it new or from ebay ?

got vibe speakers in my is,pleased with them

always cleaning my car too and get comments from neighbours etc walking past, always think yeah but you drive a shity heap i wouldnt expect you to understand why someone cleans a nice car twice a week or likes to keep it clean tidy and hoovered inside ..but that balances out with the "thats a nice car/clean/tidy/ etc comments whenever anyone who appriciates a nice car/mechanics etc see it elsewhere

[l16ydl]

Love the car Alex, couldn't you get classic car insurance?

[Alex]

I couldnt Loyd, iam 20 you need to be 21 for classic insurance

Pm also in its way loyd.

[Jim320i]

Alex... Just spotted this... The doors... Do you still have them? If so, what condition are they mate?
