1985 Subaru GL - BMW E30 conversion

[rice4life]

To each his own. Glad you aren't going to swap a bmw motor in hahaha.

Pictures look great. Since you are going to use the e30 front, I think it would look sick with a boso shark nose.

Shark nose would look sickkk, I'll see if it's a possibility (possibility means whether it'll look good or not)

My Euro Plate came in the mail! So stoked to put that on

Alright alright, let me be more clear.

First of all, I'm not going all out on this, I have my swap to worry about.
I'm spending hardly any money on this and I'm not discounting the reliability of BMW's.

Telling me to just get an e30 is like telling me to just buy an STI in regards to my other swap.

What is unique about just buying an e30? or just buying an STI? Nothing, nothing is unique about
saying, hey look what I bought with my money?

I like to take things and make them really unique like my swap. This E30 conversion is kind of a joke,
I'm not looking for people to dig what I'm doing, I'm trying to get a laugh out of this, if it ends up
working out and looking legit, then awesome, if not oh well. I didn't spend much money on this car and if it ends up looking silly, I can always go back to the stock look.

Just sit back and enjoy what you're about to see.

Initially was going to post a rude comment. But I can totally respect that^. You have my interest man.

Good to hear Kyle, sometimes people get to caught up in standards of what's right and wrong.
You need to get to know somebody before you understand their intentions.

Word. Check out my "ready for air" thread. Just updated. I'm all about being different. If that's what you like, stick to it.

I'd give someone more respect for rice mods if that's what they liked, and less respect to those who go with the flow trying to fit in. Car scene doesn't need that kind of follow the leader bullshit.

To be honest the body looks sick as is and has tons of potential. Do what you want by all means, but I think you are FAR better off leaving it alone.

Don't be a h8er - this isn't something I would do on my built car - I have coil overs

Buuuuutttttt, today I cut the springs in the front with my friend "slammedforester" Handles great and looks awesome, not really any wheel gap anymore either.

These were the quickest struts I've ever taken off a car. We did the whole thing in 30 minutes and we didn't even take the top hats off.

[Kyle_Eagleton]

Nice. This car is so retro haha. I like it more and more.

If you manage to somehow actually pull this off without it looking god awful horrendous, I will, I don't know, kill myself, or something.
