Olaf 3341 Report post Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) woohoo! nice one Charlie, git er ready for e30 Mega Meet in April! Wow, power windows and rear headrests, lap of luxury. A recent alignment and all. Much to do to get it back on the road? Need some underbonnet shots - is it already M42'd? Edit: oh yes already M42'd - car used to be Nathan from Nelson, from this parish. Score! Edited August 27, 2020 by Olaf the edit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LemonHunter 583 Report post Posted August 27, 2020 That sounds like fun, about 8 months might be enough to get a fair bit done. i still haven’t taken it for a proper drive, due to a lack of Wof and ducked exhaust. Should have both of those things sorted by the end of next week. I haven’t had a chance to get my head in the engine bay properly yet, but from what I have seen it’s a tidy conversion Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LemonHunter 583 Report post Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic, but that’s okay either way, I love this style, I’ve put a muffler like this on every BMW I’ve owned. Edit: Olaf is not being sarcastic, he loves my work. Edited August 28, 2020 by LemonHunter 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3341 Report post Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) No not sarcastic. Just referring to the very original fitment approach. I meant you've got the skills to get it beautifully aligned, looking and sounding excellent. PS: I'll just take my foot out of my mouth now. ☺️ Edited August 28, 2020 by Olaf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LemonHunter 583 Report post Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) Not me my man, Elite Mufflers, dropped it off last night, picked it up early afternoon today. 450mm coby and 2.5” through to the rps muffler, I mean “muffler”, you can see straight through it. i think I might add a muffler. God damn this thing is revvy. Now to accumulate enough funds to add the super charger, maybe even before mags and shocks haha.
