It's looking great Spook, what more do you want to do to your E30?
I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure...

cracked on today, had a sump to swap, i managed to get the sump off rather easily by undoing the 3 oil pump bolts and dropping it into the sump, the sump comes out easily without raising the engine
on the other hand getting one off the torx bolts off was a bit of a coont as it was rather awkward to access with the limited tools at my disposal, a few trips to les smiths sorted this
next weekend some goodfellas from the zone are gonna do the last piece of welding under the front arch,
to dos
fit hartge six branch, exhaust system, hartge rocker cover,bbtb, m3 diff, polished header tank and water bottle, refit dash and all of the interior, fit my new rims , remap and an mot

all in all stacks :D
thanks for your comments chaps

LOL, when I read the "goodfellas" bit, I was thinking, "What, E30 Mafia?!" :mad:

Who are you going to for the remap?

Managed to get the oil pump back on, a little bit fiddly to say the least, just got to tighten up the sump bolts, and the sumps done.
Very satisfying :D

Spooks have you put your old rims back on yet mate as I thought it was perfect for your car. BTW what is the colour of her as I always forget to ask you mate when I see you at meets as yours is the only one I honestly seen in this colour.

It's such a awsome colour I always have loved it from the 1st day I saw it. Makes sense now why I never seen it on another E30 :P
