unfortunately 2 years down the line i missed driving an e30 and soon lost interest in the car i had my heart set on driving again and insted purchased my secound e30 tourer and one that im going to keep until im old and grey!! well old as imalready going grey!!
with 230000 miles on the original engine (providing it was still the original) i figured it was time to cange the engine, i prchased this from a work mate and a fellow zoner (driftnething)......
the head was from a different engine as the original had a couple of bolts snapped in it, it is an early sport high comp lump, i rebuilt it then fitted it into the tourer.......
out with the old and in with the new........
now dont that look better??
the last two pics are how she stand at the moment, in the last 2 weeks of it being on the road i put corsa springs in the rear and lowered the front, she is now on a sorn and i have a list of things to do before she bocomes a weekend run around as the cost of fuel and doing 50 - 60 miles a day to get to work and back is hurting my finances so i had to go french and buy a 1.2 clio to run around in!! oh well at least it saves miles on the e3o!! i will ad pictures as and when i have others to show the progress of my car.
