Hi All,
Decided to sell my e36 vert and mx13 corona to fund an e30 vert.
Have this g260 swapped 325i lined up. Couple of minor issues and not all original but solid car that will suit my needs well. Has heaps of new parts and a schrick cam.
Short term plan is lots of driving, some light panel and paint work, retrim recaro SR4 to match beige leather interior, patch a couple of small holes in the top and general service
Next will be more driving, purple tag rack, importing a hard top, fix dash cracks (probably recover in leather or vinyl) and possibly hartge replica headers/intake work. Also considering LSD if I can get one for a decent price. Have some contacts in Germany looking into it.
Longer term plans are EV conversion when technology progresses and local parts availability improves. Would likely keep the original drivetrain and clutch but will also consider selling that off and installing small tesla drive in the rear if that makes more financial and practical sense at the time.
If the EV doesnt go ahead for whatever reason it will get the M50TUB25/G250 treatment as I absolutely love that combo in my e36
