E30 Zone

My dads 535i sport and my E30 - big plans but on a tight budget!


Bricks are just incase!





I love my baby! Hope you like it or can see potential haha

Looks a clean car, about the bricks why not leave it in gear??

I like them both, but I really like the colour of your E30!

What have you got planned then ?

Hello mate, fred flintstone would be proud of that handbrake! haha! looks clean what have you got planned for her?

Looks a nice motor. IS lip would look great on it!

one for crusing one for abusing

look nice mate, like rosco said get a is spoiler on it, theres lots for sale at the mo, so snap one up pronto

No gearbox in it yet mate!

Its only a 316i at the mo! so upgrading the brakes and suspension (handling before performance) for now spesh seein as my insurance will be hooooge! Want an M30 conversion and then maybe a turbo but Im more of an N/A fan! I'd love an m-tech kit not sure about 1 or 2 yet! It may look clean in the rain but the bodywork is abit abused scratched and dinged all over and roof has been jumped on but no rust anywhere which is why I got it! Front panels dont quite line-up properly so assuming a front ender but chassis isnt twisted just bumped! Wiring problems, interiors shocking so undecided about striping or new interior! Need a poll on that 1! Loads of work to do!

Glad you all like it though!

Yeh IS lips look awesome but Im leaving asthetics till Ive got the tough stuff done!

Good luck with it mate sounds like you've got some big plans there

Cheers lads
Whats everyones views on stripping the interior and sound deadening?
Will it be too noisy on the road?

The black one looks like the ideal donor car for the green one to me

I stripped ALL of my soundproofing, inside and outside of bulkhead, all the glued on stuff under the carpet and inside doors and rear quarters.

Even with an M30 and a single silencer exhaust it's ok for me and had I easily chatted to my mate at 130ish on the way back from LeMans the other week. I've had much noisier Minis and Mk2 Escorts!

With an extra silencer it might even be quite refined!

I did leave the (very heavy! ) carpet in though as it's my only car.
I've driven a few cars with no carpet and it sounds like you're in a tin can with Motorhead!
