  • Finally speaking..

    New to stance and new to forums :|

    I'm Jacob, I'm 23
    Living in Portland, Oregon
    Tattoo artist in a shop called Pachyderm Ink in Vancouver, WA.

    Never knew anything about cars growing up, spent too much time in the art room.
    That's until I bought my first BMW a little over a year ago.

    I've got a 1988 E30 325i.

    It's my baby.. Never knew why people loved cars so much until I got this thing.
    Never done anything to a car until now. Everything on this car I did alone.

    So far:
    M20 stroked to 2.7L
    13 lbs. flywheel
    Custom headers
    Custom 272 Billet cam
    Dinan chip
    Salmon silver paint job
    Bav auto springs [ 1.6. inch]
    Wish I had a way of getting photos on here.
    But I got youtube videos of when I first put on my side exhaust.. Got 1, 2inch pipe out each side behind doors.
    Here's a small video i took right after install.
    Sounds meaner than your daddies camero

    Also this is how my car's lookin upto date.
    lookin for new feet!!!

    More pics a mods to come!

    Since I've bought this car I've owned:
    1987 E30 [strictly parts]
    1984 E30
    1969 2002
    1972 2002

    Also own a 1992 E30 Ci
    just gutted interior on it

    And got my brother to get a 1986 E30 SI
    My house always looks like a E30 meet now days ha.

                  You should find a E30 325ix Touring rear with the vented rear rotor setup to slap under there. I miss my E30's I had in Germany. Nice car.
