I lament the sale of my schoolmate's 325, which had a lexus v8. That thing was fucken insane.

I do love the shape of E30s, but their engines are predominantly shit.

Yeah 5 speed, I intend on either rebuilding the engine as a higher spec n/a or swapping it for an m42b18. Atm its just a nice cruiser, sounds good though. Yeah my mate just got a 325i e30. It might be a single cam but it goes so hard and spins out so easy. lexus v8 in there would be insane.

I had an e30 once, it broke lots and cost me an average of 2k a year in maintenance. I sold it and went back to a Corolla.

Should have even camber wear on both rear tires lol so then you swap them around @ the same time but yea doesnt work with only one. and a cut in the bald side? once swapped it doesnt contact the road anyway

They must be red stickers to make it go faster, or bullet holes.

Lol not exactly the most original rims out there. Would've prefered some nice black n chrome but i didn't really get to choose.

ldssmith · Reply #366 Posted: August 05, 2011, 10:35:57 am

Got the last of the sound deadning out of my a31 cefiro. Gave it a quick gloss black paint inside and getting ready to paint the outside of the car in about half an hour or so. Also have some d1r rims on the way (same sort that Steven Sole has on his 2jz chaser) and I'm trying to find a 25det gearbox that isn't to expensive and fucked. Car is nearly track ready, just gonna be more of a thrasher than anything.
