I have just read through all 16 pages and have to say Im impressed.
It started off so badly with what looked to be a chav kit and some bling rims.
You have stuck by your guns but also developed and modified beyond your original idea until you have ended up with a worthy car. Fair play.

You did the right thing binning the spoiler, Im with you for ditching the skirts too although I reckon there must be some more "interesting" but rounder skirts you can replace them with instead of m-tech II.
Im not keen on your bonnet idea but I wouldnt of choose hardly any of your mods that you have managed to make work so Ill reserve judgement for now.

I saw the car at the Pod and had to take time out to let your mate know his e46 was the bollocks. Smart collection of euro motors.

Your car just keeps getting better Snooka, if you and Johnsku ever meet, i,d love to see the result.

[greentouring]

Nice to see a 316i getting some kudos for a change...................;)

[e30_singh]

I can see a lot of time and effort has gone into this and it shows, but personally i still think this E30 is a bit to Max Power for me.

Well done for the effort dude, it could have been a whole lot worst..

[steerfromtherear]

E30singh what car is that in your avatar?

[Jim78]

E30singh what car is that in your avatar?

Looks like the Jap saloon version of what we call an AE86 Corolla (the rear wheel drive one). Think it may be called a Trueno.

Will probably be wrong on both scores!....

[steerfromtherear]

If it is it will be a Levin not a Trueno (Levin fixed headlight, Trueno pop ups). On reflection with less tired eyes your right it is a AE86.
When I looked at it last night it looked like an Opel Ascona at the front lol.

I stand corrected...I know what you mean, it's hard to tell from the brief shot of the front and the rear lights looked a bit more rounded, but it's tiny, the cars moving fast and the quality isn't great at that size so I think our eyes can be forgiven!

[e30_singh]

I do not know what car it is. AE111 are FWD

[Jim78]

Defo a Corrolla/ Trueno/ levin or whatever though.........can't think what else it could be.

[snooka]

've been away for 2 weeks... first thing i'm doing on the car is finaly replacind the distibution belt, and some other parts of the engine, just the have a good engine for 1 more year. than i'll put those rear brake disc finaly on...

repaint, new sideskirts, ... will be done, bu i've got some other priorities for the moment

[snooka]

tried some carbon vinyl, (like in a BMW E90) it's not carbon fibre, but i like the style





back on the car

[ImysE30]

Very cool

[snooka]

got some new headlights

i'll place them in 2-3 weeks when the hood and everything will be repaint

[ImysE30]

Those lights look nice . What made you go for the kit and not the whole unit like mine?

[snooka]

ik got the ones like yours bu i wnated those, cause it's like those HELLA black lights, end the angeleyes is a nicer and white

[ImysE30]

They do look nice. Different

[snooka]

car is at paintshop, should be readdy next week, just keeping ya'll updated

[snooka]

had a lot of trouble with a guy of the paintjob... i should kill him

little preview





you all can imagine i just took my car back and didn't want him to work on mine anymore

so i drove my car to another guy, a tuning shop near to mine

and there they are doing a excelent job

this was my idea of how my arches should look like



and this is how they look today





this is how my hood should be

[ImysE30]

Looking good so far, i like the flared arches

[schnaarf]

Tastefully flared arches look great

just wandering what the appeal is behind de-badging?

[snooka]

the debadging is just to have a smooth look, thats why I also remove the old skirts

[StefanAnghel]

Any update pictures?
Take care buddy!

[chisel]

dude I hate you. Purley jealously you understand

On a serious note good effort

[snooka]

hate u to

well car is almost done, had a few problems...

1) hood didn't fitted at all had to take of 1inch at one size to make it fitt...
2) front bumper was 2inches to wide it's the same as the one before, i don't understand, but anyhow, had to make it smaller, so cutted in 2 pieces, removed a bit, and put back together
3) complete new arche at the left rear side, there were holes rusted...

but everything should be ready next week

Man, I salute your dedication to your E30. You sure are throwing a lot of money into it.

[Nay]

That has been completely and utterly bastardised...




But it does look pretty cool though.
Slowely getting there ay snooka! When everyone was laughing at your body kit right at the beginning.

Looks smart now!
