E28 SETA Build

[YoungCR]

Well then more time for you to pull the seta for me

[RamRod E28]

Well I'm Back!!! Lots of updates now and more to come...

First off, I ordered a ton of parts for the e28...

OE air filter

PCV breather hose

New intake elbow

Spark Plugs 

Cap and Rotor

Lower Control Arms

Thrust Arms

All new say bar links

Rear subframe mounts

Center Link

Inner and outer tie rods 

New Idler arm with bushing

While I was waiting on parts to show up I stripped the beige carpet out that weighed a ton in the and have been cleaning any bits of rust in the floor (Gotta say I'm impressed for a 31 year old WI car!) All in the pursuit of weight reduction YO! I'm putting black carpet in from MKOEPP That will save me close to 50lbs and itll get me closer to a full black interior! (Anyone have black e28 door cards???) And I painted all the lower dash sections black to match the dash as well.

ADD kicked in YO

While still waiting on steering parts, this happened...

Couldn't ask for better fitment

I still have that 325i camshaft for you

[RamRod E28]

Lost your number with my last phone... Text me snap...

[YoungCR]

Why not just paint the door cards too? Center console came out great and it's all the same materials. You can separate the carpet and panel on the cards too I think.

[RamRod E28]

I just don't know how well it would hold up on the door pulls and such but it's worth a try I guess...

[YoungCR]

Good point

[RamRod E28]

Well Im back with some updates! Its been forever since ive been on here but I still have the e28 and have done the all black interior and pretty much just been enjoying it for the beautiful classic toy that it is! 

Also kicked the van to the curb and bought another much faster toy!

But back to the e28. heres some interior shots finally! I did the door cards and rear speaker deck in black suede and it turned out awesome!

Moar e28 porn!

And for the best part! M50 donor car!!!! Gonna be tearing into it soon!

And just recently went out to visit my pride and joys... Cannot wait for spring to be here!!!

[B C]

Suede door cards look good from here

So you are M50 swapping the e28?

[KaiserRolls]

Swap m50 into corvette. Motor and drivetrain from corvette into e28

[RamRod E28]

Some form of an LS or LT will be going into the bmw at some point in time. the m50 is just to make up in the lacking of power dept... May do an m50b30 setup this year or just a quick dirty regasket and mild rebuild to not have it down for long...

[RamRod E28]

The M50 is free!!!

[KaiserRolls]

Do a burnout

[KaiserRolls]

Also will you be using the stock mid section from the e36?

I don't quite understand what you are saying Kaiser???

[KaiserRolls]

Exhaust

[RamRod E28]

nope. gonna fab up a whole custom setup that will hopefully run out the center like my current setup.

[RamRod E28]

debating whether or not to pick up some cheap headers for all the noise!

[Earl]

I have a friend interested in the stock e36 midsection. Let me know what you want for it if you go to a full custom setup
