E30 M50 tear down kinda thing

I paid $14 for all 4 cans. What do tires have to do with anything? Lol. Rims is incorrect. You don't put rims on a car, you put wheels on a car. Unless you're black and they're going on your Monte Carlo on hydraulics. Dem u got sum rimz y0.
I'm all ears.

Not the city lol. The Chevy bricks from the 70's.

I guess this is a long over-due update, but better late than never.
TMS under-drive pulley set, skid plate for an m50 in an e30, and a new coolant overflow
All red tails
Dropped front subframe
Took apart said subframe
Welded support plates on said subframe
Cleaned and painted it, and put said subframe back in car. You can tell its been a while since anything happened in the bay hahaha.
Im aiming for friday to get the m50 timed. If that happens, Ill have all weekend to put things back together! Order up new sway bar bushings and endlinks so hopefully those come before the weekend so my fubframe can be completely wrapped up. Im pretty sure I have all of the parts I need to get the whole car back together, but we will see.

What's the story on the skid plate ? Is that a custom piece?
Theres a guy on r3v who is selling them. $160 shipped
Cant go wrong with a price like that. He basically borrowed a couple of local people, took measurements, and started making them. He has them for m20's, m42's and 24v swaps. Heres a link: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=269486I should also mention it comes with new steering rack bolts too. Mounting it up is very easy. Its sturdy as hell too! Ill actually feel comfortable driving my car around now.

Wow .. that is really nice. i have a choice of factory, Race Skids, or street sign ..... Factory and street sign are in a tie for coolness
Well, I nailed my oil pan really hard the first time driving my car home with the swap, so I wanted to make sure it'd be safe. E30 guys rally with this plate so I trust it can handle waukesha roads.
Id say race skid, only because Ive been paranoid of ruining my pan since day one hahah.
