E30 Zone

Beautiful looking car m8, is it a 2.5 ?

yeh,started of life as a 320 last owner dropped a 325i sport engine and gearbox in, i've not had her long but i'm gonna chuck a few quid into her over the next few months,cheers for the feedback!

Get an LSD if it dont already have 1, that would be my first mod

thats wot i've been looking into,but it seems everybodys after one and there not cheap, but quite a lot of people have said that an lsd is an essential mod on an e30!

Like it mate, e36 m3 rims on e30's are really starting to grow on me

Is there much difference in performance compared to an open diff, i know theres more control as it stops you from spinning out but doesnt that restrict you from pulling away quicker??

nice e30

I don't think so - my 325 seems to be quicker with the lsd.

Plus I can do 2 wheel donuts

loving the car, is that a zender kit?

Its a tech2 kit

yeh its a tech2,the front valance could do with a re-spray though, keep on scrapeing it,who put that kurb there!!!

Nice e30....I remember the 1st time I saw e36 m3's on a e30, it looked strange, and needed a second glance to realise what they were....they look at home on them now though...!!!

I have to say , your car looks good..!!!

cheers mate,i cant wait to get up for my first meet,check out some proper e30's get some tunning tips and stuff

Loving those pics. Paint looks very good and shiny.
Where can you get those rims?

the rims came with the car when i bought it so i would'nt know the first place to look for em, but i'm sure some of the lads on here could point u in the right direction!

Nice looking car. As already said get yourself an LSD, makes the world of difference when on the raggedy edge. Also, and this is not meant to offend, but please lose the tacky Halfords badge on the back. There are plenty of proper ///M badges available. Just my tuppence worth.

i've had the car a month,the car came as u see it now, its a work in progress,but i can appreciate your views, the bonnet has been de-badged i was gonna take the boot badge of anyway, completely de-badge it, has people guessing at the traffic lights whether too or not!!!

Just had another look, I hadn't noticed the bonnet badge was missing. Nice mod! What have you got planned for her? Anything exciting?

i'm an e30 virgin! thats why i've joined the forums to get some ideas from like minded petrol heads,who can point me in the right direction, hopefully spadge is gonna pop down and fix my gear box for me soon soon,dropped a link on tuesday, fooking nightmare!!!

decided to sell the car and start looking for a 4 door while its off the road

That was a short term of ownership?

Why the sudden change?

after only owning it for a couple of days the missus was moaning that it was too awkwud getting the kids in and out of it,and its been off the road this week she's been on at me to get a four door and it makes sense now.If i had a bigger drive i'd keep it(weekend toy) just needs the link fixing and she'll drive away

That fair enough i guess mate. Its a shame tho, it loos like a good one!

What are you thinking for your 4 door?

want a 325i would consider a 320 black if possible leathers would be a bonus,as for lsd an stuff not too bothered for now it would end up with one one day so makes no difference really, i'm not happy having to sell it but it makes sense long term to opt for the 4 door! Any one out there got a tidy 4 door?

sweet looking motor mate nice 1
