Anyway, my car is an 84 318i with a rebuilt 91 m30b35 out of an e32. I used a g260/6 5speed from an e34 535i, and the usual e28 radiator, custom engine mounts, early 325e driveshaft, custom exhaust. After trying out 3 different ratios, I have stuck with the s3.46 for now. The chassis did also get 325i front/rear brakes a while back to get rid of the rear drums.
Interior and exterior has changed a few times (had the plastic bumper conversion for a little bit, few different wheels, different interior etc, about 3 or 4 different suspension setups).
Total weight of the car as it is right now is 2500lb with half a tank of gas, no driver in the car.
LF 703 RF 741
LR 530 RR 526
This is with full interior, no spare, no jack and no a/c compressor (not installed yet). No sound or weight reduction. On 15x6 bbs ra with 205/50 bfg g-force tires, corbeau seats, drum to disk convertion etc.
On to the pictures:
It looked like this when I first got her, cracked dash, worn interior, drum brakes, shitty m10 and all, the list was looong.

After doing full suspension/interior overhaul it now looked like this for a while (interior is no longer blue though).
Replaced the seats, e-brake console/e30m3 boot, dash, front/rear glass, front upper headliner piece and installed e30m3 rear shelf since my car does not have a 3rd brake light to name a few major items...the list is too long.



Euro bumpers/valance/euro fogs.

Then finally came the engine swap after the chassis received 325i front/rear brakes, s3.73 diff etc.
