e30 Calypso build

[Cadaverous]

Tonight I got a little bit done. Got my LEDs installed in the plate lights. Got my smoked all read tails in, and trunk LED in. I only have my iPotato so the photos aren't great. I'll get some good photos tomorrow.

Before


New lights. Appears I'll have no issues with light shining through, it seems just as bright as they were without any transparent black.

You and me both. Coilovers is the next step in this puzzle.

Cool revamp struggling to understand the difference with the grills?

The euro grilles? The biggest difference is the "eyebrows". Also the space between the slots is filled in more on the euro grilles.

Doesn't get much better than a calypso E30 coupe! Nice progress so far, I like that you're taking care of a lot of little things. The new odometer gears need to be gapped ever so slightly, otherwise they bind up on each other and don't work properly. At least that's what Garagistic told me when I asked them why my new gears were only working occasionally. I never fixed it though haha sold the E30 soon after. Keep it up!

Hmmm. Yeah, I was going to take it apart and see what is going on. I got them to turn by hand when I had it apart, kinda frustrating. I'll pull it back out and see what's going on. I'm sure they aren't lined up right.

Well, last night I got everything else together sans the glove box.


Not sure where this goes......Anyone know what it is?


Speakers are installed. (I know they're backwards right now)




It went well except for a few frustrations. My cluster still isn't counting miles, the plastic trim piece below the cluster is all jacked, The euro clock has no light, and I wired my amp remote to a switched power that is switched by the running/driving lights being turned on. All in due time, just a little frustrating.

Do it.



DO IT.

Maybe one day when I have a job and a Drivers license.

Attention to detail. I like

Looks great man! Any plans for a motor swap?

I'm kinda torn. I want to do an s52, but it's expensive to do that, and I know I'll just want more power after.

I'm kinda thinking at this point about going to an m30 and then boosting.

Stop making me want to get an e30

I **** you

I love you
























Seriously like... I LOVE you

Do it.



DO IT.
