well the story started when i got my first E30 and as soon as i got it, i decided I NEED A SWAP.
about 2 years later when i got my second E30 i put an S52 in a guys 328is and he paid half his bill and never came back... sooooo i kept his motor
this was her in her prime!
and about 8 months later......
insurance pretty much fucked me so there wasnt a whole lot i could do....
thats when i picked this baby up.
pretty much stock 325i coupe.
when i bought it, it was chipped with some minor work done.
first thing i did was get rid of all the shitty ass speakers in the car and put a nice sound system in it. i went for nice clear sound and heres what i got
heres about 4 weeks later..
i still need to borrow a roller sometime so i can remove my spring spacers and get moar lowww
anyways.. my beloved bloodshot-e30 fought me everystep of the way during removal so the tourches came out!
had to cut the frame in order to snag the motor...
the bad was..
-broke my header
-cracked my timing chain cover
-fucked up every pulley immaginable on a motor
-broke my motor mount arm
-shatterd my oilpan
-and bent my custom driveshaft
-oh yea and it broke my intake manifold..
heres the motor when i first got it out.
the next day i started to pull my M20 (it blew up... kinda)
not a whole lot of pics from that night, didnt really have time to clean my hands to whip out the camera.
tranny brace paint matched.
and shift linkage that i made
turns out i wont be using this and ill be making a different one.
few more shots of the heart
yea my friend got a little happy with my spray paint on the transmission.. anyone know the best way to getthat shit off?
front suspension dropped
cleaned engine bay
the engine as of 3 days ago..

-5 spd swap (pedals and lines)
-new radiator in
-custom E-fan brace
-fix the bolt that broke off in my frame..
-put 3.73 rear end and re-enforced subframe back in
-and of course get it running ASAP.
