Sold my Fit, starting on my e30 ;)

[fitted_fit]

Please leave it red. It looks so good!

I do love the red, but i just love maroon on e30s so much. ive got a while to decide my color though

[jeger]

That's a nice thread, and a sexy ride !! Hope you will be patient for the rest

[Chuckdee]

I love how you cut off 95mm just to mount the coilovers, and even maxed out at that height, it still looks good. Great job op!!

[Rob&co]

legit pal!

[fitted_fit]

Thanks guys! Yeah it's gonna be crazy low once I get my skid plate and wheels. These winters rub the inner fender a lot.

I don't have pictures to put up since my computer died but I replaced the oil pan gasket on Saturday and installed my condor speed shop motor mounts and while I was in there put some washers under the mounts. Now my oil pan sits above the subframe ) woohoo!

I've decided I can handle the bottlecaps no longer and I'm gonna order a set of xxr 532s in 16x8 once I sell the pair of mk2 recaros I just basically stole from a friend for $200. Stay tuned as I may have her ready for import alliance in Atl! Fingers crossed.

I was gonna wait until I got my wheels to update but I got bored.

Got a few things done, I got kinda drunk one night and ordered some stuff haha. I got:
-an hid kit
-eBay chip
-air filter adapter since I had a k&n laying around

The chip is awesome! For $35 you can't beat the power it adds. Pulls much nicer now I would highly recommend it to anyone with an eta motor.

One of the ballasts in the hid kit was bad so they're sending me a new one and ill have those back in.

I'm getting money this week for my birthday and I'm pretty positive ill be buying the wheels I had on the fit back from the guy for cheap as temp wheels.

Best part of this update: I put the gti recaros in



Now I just need to recover the door cards to match/ vinyl paint the carpet etc. but it's gonna be cold all week so I have little motivation

[fitted_fit]

does anyone know how i can change the thread title? the fact that i typed mt instead of my bothers me every time i look at the thread

[99sil-teg]

Damn those seats! Looking good man

[fitted_fit]

hey! a somewhat exciting update.....
i got wheels using some of my birthday money. theyre not going to stay on the car for long but its what i can afford right now.




theyre actually the exact wheels that i had on the fit. the guy i sold them to texted me asking if i was interested in buying them and i got them cheap enough i decided to go for it as a temporary setup. my goal is still to have the klutch republiks for now, but im kind of liking how slammed i can be on 15s so ill be considering enkei 92s also.

i also decided bmw was stupid for using bolts instead of studs so i fixed that:


feedback/ criticism welcome. im getting different tires ASAP and i plan on blasting the wheels clearing the centers and polishing the lips. i also am in desperate need of a new rear subframe with adjustable camber/toe because my toe is horrible in the rear.

[fitted_fit]

Decided to do something about my rear camber and toe issues finally. I ordered rear subframe riser bushings from condor speed shop months ago and I'm finally getting around to putting them in while I can use my parents garage.

Only halfway done


Trying to do this by myself has sucked.. Hopefully things go smoothly today when I burn the old bushings out and install the new ones in the subframe

[sCrapp]

50/50 on the poll at the mo. KEEP THE STRIPES.

Blast pipes

Also finished the install of the condor speed shop subframe bushings finally. It was a pain in the ass. Put my trans mounts from them in too and found a big old rust hole through my trunk that was being held together with undercoating. More progress coming soon





My friend helping me fix holes I burned through the exhaust. Stick welders suck.

Sitting at work begging for a wash. Needs a euro front plate and more low/ bigger front tires

[fitted_fit]

I lowered it more today. Sparks and scrapes everywhere. But I had to cut the rear springs to get lower so it's really bouncy. I love it though



And this was before lowering it more. Ill get some day shots tomorrow
