My car has been converted to a 325i sport basically, boasting a 2.5 engine, 3.91 LSD, sports gearbox and all the usual ancillaries including OBC and anti-roll bars.
The conversion was done a few weeks ago and I had the anti roll bars fitted by Shaz and Ben on Saturday morning. I am proper loving having a 2.5 under the bonnet. The sound and performance is great, making me feel all grown up! (I am actually 23 but you know what I mean). Just knowing I have the capability now to really pull away/over take is very satisfying. The 1.8 was fun and could still be more than a match for some of the corsa boys etc but the 2.5 is another level. Obviously it doesn't exactly go into warp speed compared to some modern sports cars but definitely puts a smile on my face!
My car is by no means mint and there might have been some sence in just biting the bullit and selling my car when it was a 318i and just buying a 325i but its got sentimental attachment and I had said I was going to do it and I like to think I do what I say. I'm pretty sure I've made the right decision. Theres plenty more I have planned for it but I've got to save up a few more pay cheques not to mention a holiday in Ibiza next week which will no doubt set me back a bit!
Gotta say a big thanks and recommendation for Shaz325isport and his mate Ben for picking my car up, supplying and fitting the parts to keep project e30 going. I would definitely recommend these guys to anyone who perhaps dont have the time, tools, space or knowledge to do this kind of work to their e30 and dont fancy getting ripped off by some pricks at a garage. These guys are genuine blokes and e30 enthusiasts. We agreed a price and they did what they said they were going to do.
Will put some pics up soon.
