Been a month. Heaps of work done best update the photos. All speaks for it self. The head is currently at the engineers getting pressure tested and crack tested and a light plane and then its back to me. Also getting a double stack head gasket made to handle the turbo.. all goes well... New wheels and tires are on the car. Suspension is being sourced. interior is getting the roll cage done. and fixed back bucket seats being mounted to the original rails. all goes well should be running after new years! But im just being optomistic.

Also reg on hold

Thinking of selling the project. Build forum is on here. Any interest give me a text. 0275070208 Might not come with motor or box. May sell seperate for the right price http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....showtopic=30678 Link to the build thread. I'm really looking for offers. Has had some rust work still needs to be finished. The bonnet has been shaved(badge removed and hole welded in) Looking for offers really. Its christmas time. Everyones short of money. So offers. Body is fairly straight. Passenger side doors need to be fixed. They got kicked in by some fool. Driver side sill needs to be pulled out. Also been kicked in. Not to much work. If wanted will sell the car and motor etc together and can come with the turbo and intercooler if wanted for the right offer. No manifold though. Will come with standard manifold and standard exhaust which will need to be welded back up and new muffler put on it. Everything there for it and maybe a few spares from the 325. No springs. Has fronts but no backs. Offers around the 1200 mark or whatever. Cheers

Motor is out now. Will upload pics when my computer isnt so slow.

I got a mate that works at supreme auto Masterton. he's going to help me out but other than that i'm giving it a crack. done rust work before and heaps of painting. But yeah its pretty much Backyard customs. Thats how we do. hahah Will put pics up after the motor is out and started paint work.

As the title says, So its manual and its a 5 speed if that helps. My plan is to take out the motor and box as one and i cant work out how to get the shifter off. usually its straight forward undo circlip type jobbie but no deal. Any help? tx me with help! asap. Motor is meant to be out tommorrow. 0275070208

Motor and box are coming out on friday. Then its off to get some work done to it. Panel and painted buy the end of summer and the motor back in.

I wish mine was a coupe. My mate has a 316 coupe with no interior and a 1800 motor in it and its sick as

Thats awesome lol

They look the win aye.

Looks so much better without the roof chop and if it had the bbs rims on it instead of those others.

Yeah it had a bit of a problem with a screwdriver and it holding itself on there. Might need to sort that one out. Update- De Badged the bonnet and looks heaps better. Do have photos just not at home right now and dont have my camera. Will put some up soon.

Latest photos. Need to find some time to take better photos of the car and of the interior.

push button start in the 318.

ive got a 325. its just sitting there doing nothing might sell it off as a project. Was just wondering about it. If anyones intrested I might make a sale thread on it. PM me for details if anyones intrested..

How would the m20b25 fit into the 318i front end? would i need to swap over all the subframes etc? and would I need to make allowance for the motor to sit between the fire wall? also would it bolt up to the 5 speed in my car already with maybe a bellhousing to suit?

I work at supercheap masterton and I bought some fuel hose the other day which is pretty much the same. I got the hose that says Fuel injection blah blah blah on it so that i didnt get the wrong size. Its been fine so far...

Whats the price on a set of those?

EPIC I kicked the wing mirrors off the 325 the other day. Friday I think. And gave it a custom spray can paint jobbie.

I do like your your car and it does suit 16's but would me pfl e30 suit them?

those are pretty cool. I would rather the axis wheels though. the centres are to big on them other wheels.

What size do you run?

I like your plate

Will try find some. i know that they are 15s thats about it FOUND http://www.axiswheels.com/view-wheel/ogsan

NO DEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
