NickL's E30

[NickL]

I might be crazy but weren't you selling the S52 so you could swap in an M60?

Yeah that was the plan, decided to keep the S52 a bit longer. Would be tough to finish the M60 with school

Some progress

[NickL]

Progress.



Fresh paint on the block/head/accessories. Began wrapping my headers. (Ignore the fact that I put the rear header on the front lol)

Dude this build is legit, perfection is key and you know how to do it! Hows the quality of the headers?

Thanks man, the headers actually aren't terrible. They hit the subframe just barely but I fixed that with a BFH. The main problem was that they hang a bit lower so the car was getting hung up when airing out. So I had them tigged up a little higher. Other than that they've been great for a year so far, welds still holding up, flanges/bolt holes were fine etc.

I really like the way you did those rear parts of the frame with the angled pieces, i may do something similar on mine. youre keeping the fusebox in the bay right?

Yeah I dont wanna deal with the hassle of basically rewiring the entire car. Not worth the headaches and the way the fusebox sits in its own corner is fine with me.
