E36 329i ;)

[steve320]

because of a few rust issues the red e36 has been put on hold and will be back even better than originally planned (will be a long term project designed to destroy tyres and sound great)
this is the replacement , 323i with 102thousand miles, 325i manifold, 328i exhaust full leather service history polybush etc etc, but most importantly no rust

Well I haven't updated this in a while as my life has been busy with uni and what not , but my plans are finally coming together, I dropped my car to cab in super4 a little while back to put in Bc Coilovers , m3 Evo back end 6 speed box etc etc, but now my turbo build will be starting after after a few months of research,

bought a stud and nut kit off elite-d


I bought a 85mm .140 cometic head gasket and arp head studs from vacmotorsports great service as always



Got caught for €150 tax from the customs so not a happy camper. Next purchase will be a nice clutch disk and Miller war chip

just need some oil lines (with the resistor ) and to find the best place to put the water feed and how to make them

I'm copying a guy in the uk , he running near identical setup just his engine doesn't have vanos, he's got a proven 495hp at .8 bar and will be running 1.5 bar once he gets a better boost solenoid, but id bet happy with anything over 500 as we have shitty fuel here in ireland
