Been working on it as fast as possible since I got it. Car is at shop getting custom loud pipes right now!

Ground Control camber plates en route to lower front another 1/2in. This weekend holds sways, stress bars, stereo and maybe bumper swap!

Nah. Fun street car that sees the track. A 'daily' track car if you will.

Nice shots, especially the last two. That location really worked well in the overcast wet atmosphere, nice eye.

Swap?! What's the plan? DOOOO Tell! I'm with Imput, those wheels go well with your car. Now get a buddy to drive it and shoot it in motion!

M52 which is a 2.8L I6 that comes in the 96-99 328i. I could get an S52 which is the M3 motor from those same years but all that is is a bored and stroked M52. So put M3 cams, M50 manifold and a good tune and you have as much power as an S52 and money in the pocket.

And M52 has thicker cylinder walls which means it can handle more boosssst.

Love the e30. The '88 is an odd year, what with the bumpers from earlier and the lights/chin from later. I had an '89 in the same color (lachssilber, yes?). I really think I'll own one again, and I'll probably do something similar to what you're working on.

Good choice on the M52. Very durable engines.

I like the wheels you've got. If I couldn't go with BBS RX...

Keep us posted on the progress.
