White UK E30

[Palmer E30]

Got my self a E30 a few weeks ago since buying it i have raised the engine 10mm (blitzed the sump on day two of ownership) and fitted my RM's 7.5 front and 8 rears, et13 and et8 respectively (i think ). The rears have had 10mm spacers and stud conversion since the pics to bring the et down to 8, also i have swapped the pressed plates out for regular UK ones.

Heres a few pics with my mates cars

Plans are to fit Gaz coilovers some 16" and try and make it a little faster along with some paint.

Didn't notice I had those last two replies. I made some engine mount spacers from nylon at work, fairly simple just nylon disks 10mm thick with a bolt hole and location pin hole cut out. Took about 30 mins to fit but still smashed my sump 2 times after I raised it.

I have now fitted a RPM sump gaurd but I want to modify it to sit a little higher as it's only around 1/4 of an inch off the floor.

I also picked up two cheap pairs of wheels this week a pair of 16x8 rota grids and a pair of 16x7.5 tsw hockenheims (they where only £30 with tyres haha) will get some updated pictures up soon
