E30 318i(for now)

[dar1984]

Picked up this e30 few months ago, needed some love as the previous owner had fallen out of love with it, got it for a few hundred euros as he believed the head gasket was gone, trailered it home and within a few minutes i had the overheating sorted with a simple bleeding of the system, happy days!! Has some slight rust starting to show but not that bad

Carpets were soaked so stripped out the interior to try trace the leaks


Clayed and polished the car. Can't believe how well it came up



Fitted 60/40mm springs, also fitted new track rod end and stabiliser link


This is how she was sitting after that

Next was to get and fit IS front lip

Borbets arent my favourite so ordered some bbs rs reps, 16x9 at the back and 16x8 at the front



Next was interior, front seats were past it and not very supportive, picked up some recaros from an evolution 4 and made up some brackets


Momo steering wheel was next, fitted with a boss kit, just need a horn to finish it off

Got a super scrapyard find off a mtech 1 spoiler, got it for 20 euro..delighted , didnt hang around in getting it stripped and sprayed

Here it is fitted , with some red BBS caps




Thats all for now, More to come soon

nice how are the rims holding up?, was looking to get a set

Looks awsome, i really do think claying it takes it to another level, fantastic!! what are the wheel and tyre size and do you get any rubbing while its lowered? or any other issues? with them..ive got 14 inch bbs and dont want to have issues cos i really wanna change them.

Thanks guys
Tyres are 205/50/16 I was getting rubbing so got the rear arches rolled and hasn't rubbed since. Wheels are 16"

Rims are holding up fine. I won't be driving it in the winter but no issues so far
