Long time no talk and see. I haven't seen your car (E36) in person, ever since you changed it to the current color. See you around...

Dom

yukio@jic-magic · 11-07-2005, 06:03 PM

Sweet... I'm glad that you're finally going through with this project. Where the spinners at, Ryan? No spinnahs? WTF? hahahah.

HoosierDrifter · 11-08-2005, 11:55 AM

Mike Peters · 11-08-2005, 12:04 PM

Gibbs · 11-08-2005, 01:24 PM

dude those rims are so sick must be nice but all in all the car looks real good

aristo · 11-08-2005, 05:41 PM

$1200? sweet deal. I wish I could find one that cheap.

Great car too, how's it handle the drifting?

defiantfc3s · 11-08-2005, 06:11 PM

wow. that is beautiful. those cars have such an appeal to me...

Silentghost · 11-08-2005, 08:01 PM

sweet buildup

thanks alot guys for the great comments, stay tuned for alot more modifications to this lil monster!

FD3S_pilot · 11-11-2005, 07:24 PM

Yeah another e30!! woot woot

olmytsi · 11-12-2005, 12:05 PM

Very nice cars...i too have a soft spot for e30s!

nitroboy24 · 11-14-2005, 02:01 PM

Yeah! Another E30 on the boards

Awesome E30 man, I love those wheels! It's so damn hard to find any nice looking 4-lug wheels and then if you do chances are they're too damn big

I've got a 318iS and don't wouldn't go over 16"ers because it's already slow enough as it is

I'm thinking about a 6-cylinder swap but I think I'm going to save myself time and get either another E30 (it'd be a 325) or an E36 325is. I'm thinking E36 at this time just because there are more options for forced induction but who knows what I'll do.

Anyways, like I said nice car man! When I get home I'll post up a pic of my car if you don't mind. Hell..might as well make another thread on it

Also, if you are a member of the Bimmerforums I'm !RocknE30! over there.

JonnySlick · 11-14-2005, 02:38 PM

friggin' beautiful man. i got a 1974 bmw 2002.

gotta love the 2002! got any pics?

nitroboy24 · 11-16-2005, 06:16 AM

I'll try and get some pictures up today before I got to work

I'm on a school computer and most forums (where my other pictures are) have been blocked so I can't do anything right now..

yeah actually i think i have some old ones some where. i moved to vegas about two years ago....i had to leave my 2002 back at my parents house in NC due to no room out here. maybe by next year i'll have it out here. i'll see if i can find some old pics though. it's nothing special (except it was my first car ... i've owned it for 12 years now!)

nitroboy24 · 11-16-2005, 03:34 PM

There she is

kalib0y · 11-16-2005, 03:51 PM

Clean ride!

I just found my turbo manifold to turbo the e30, cant wait to start shredding some tires on the drift tracks!

Im also trying to prove to my brother that I can build a cheaper drift car than his AE86 and with more power!

FD3S_pilot · 11-17-2005, 07:10 PM

well i might as well post my e30 too then

Stock, but IE stage 3 springs and IE exhaust on the way..
