Well finally got the car back after a few months....

It needed some welding doing near the driver/passenger side footwell, got that sorted, but forgot to take pics of that, as i couldn’t wait to get it back and started putting it back....

Also had new subframe bushes put it, Eibach ARB’s(front & back), GAZ coilovers put in, and get the MOT done, which surprisingly passed 1st time, only advisory was tyre getting low...

This is how it was when i got it back...
Image

Well next morning gave it a quick wash and wax...
Image
Image

Had some alloys that i had bought year or so ago, been waiting to be put on... so couldn’t wait any longer, as stuck them on pretty much the same night i got it back... took the pictures the next morning...
Image
Image

Heres a picture of the coilovers i got put on it, so started messing around with the height etc...
Image

After the alloys, i started putting the inside back together... in goes the carpet
Image
Image

Then the rare interior + doorcards and also the original illuminated all-in-one gaitor
Image
Image
Image

Then made a start in the engine bay, and of course the btb 6 branch manifold had to go in...
Image
Image
Once that was done i had to order 2 clamps from btb as i lost one previously, so had to wait for them to arrive so i could finish putting the exhaust on, once they arrived put it all together and took it for a drive, well a long drive...
The car after put back together after a long time...

Directional tyre the wrong way around...

Also, have you fitted a 4 pot carpet? Like the wheels though.

Very nice seats.

The wheels would rock a non-kitted car better IMO

Shakee,

That e30 is a beauty.

It always surprises me how easy it is to change the way a e30 looks, whack on a set of dished alloys and it transforms the whole car. No wonder these cars were and still are so popular.
