WIBIMMERS

Rowley; This engine straightpiped to a 1200 dollar muffler also sounds like absolute sex.

I'm going to buy it tomorrow hopefully (in all seriousness)... Don't steal it from me!

I'm going to buy a $70,000 car (or more or less... The point being that BMWs are NOT cheap cars) and then glare at my "popup" screen to make sure I don't miss a 5% off deal/free egg roll at the local Chinese take out restaurant. And most likely crash my car in the process! These deals are totally worth it. /not

Uhhhhhhhh... janky!!!

Headers from??

Zinnoberrot!

Theres my crank case breather hose? lol

This is supposed to be one hose...

Don't even know.. Don't even ask, aparently thats the window washer thingy? would explain why its not working....Ahh! rust! I'll have to have that removed in the near future.

Kaiser; I bought it!

Or just get an e39 m5

They're heavyyy.

Jeff said:

looks like the work of a ver knowledgeable previous owner. i think the radiator hose is my favorite.

I actually bought the car off a guy named Jeff..... He's giving you "jeffs" a bad rep man.

He said it was an emergency fix because the hose cracked in the middle.    

Yes its basically rust free!!

I've never seen these before and thought these were really cool.

You can find all the individual films on youtube just search

So I got my M50 longblock the other day.

I needed some parts for my swap so I got the following:

late model coolant reservoir

e28 535i motor mounts 

M50 alternator (my longblock didn't come with one. I got it on the cheap!)

Then I filled up my corolla and went to milwaukee to meet with Snap and KaiserRolls for lunch.

I bought these headers off of KaiserRolls for my m50 swap for $50. The welding connecting them to the midpipe is almost too good to be true.

Then Kaiser drove me to meet up with Rampelsauce. I bought a zinnoberrot trunk + is spoiler off him for $40... Yes... I am in the back of an E30 coupe WITH an e30 trunk. So very spacious indeed (and I'm almost 6'2").

After a very dangerous drive back (freezing rain.. saw a lifted jeep with meaty tires spin off the interstate at 70mph smack right into a concrete wall under a bridge) my corolla had used less than half a tank to get to Milwaukee and back (I'm from madison; I filled my corolla up before I left)

I "Kryloned" the is spoiler and did the trunk swap. Here's how she sits.

Thanks Chris you too man; I hope to see the famous 528e in action soon!

This guy. Because full throttle rage drifting.

Anyone want to get together and get lunch tomorrow since its above 0 now.

Pat; 

toss me a text anytime! I am 100% available for lunch almost any day of the week (I work evenings)

Not much of an update but im selling a couple things and I have a job now so hopefully money will be coming in!!!!

Edit: This is probably the biggest update of them all. Looking back on this it's funny that I said the above.

TDI will last forever. Maintenenance will be the most expensive for a VW though. Probably the best gas mileage.

Volvos have incredible build quality. Could put a decent dent in a semi. As stated above some of their automatics are shit.

Subaru's are good; however I don't like the MPG that they get, or their horsepower/liter. They're Japanese and reliable (even up to 300k like most toyotas) however have fun working on a boxer! Sparkplugs and headgaskets my friend.

IMHO get a Toyota. No bullshit; no problems, will last forever. FWD is good in the snow with snow tires. and it should cover all your parents needs. Or if they want a little more luxury lexus' are fantastic.

Diesels to me are looking more and more promising in the recent years however.

I'd stay away from anything domestic just because they don't seem to be up to par with build quality. Atleast during the recent years. Just look at the KBB.

Dude even it's a pile you got it for nothing. Well, pretty close.

Edurty said:

There's a "build thread" on bimmerforums for this car. Its been around and heard many people say to stay away from it. As long as it was worth it yo you

Yeah no doubt Rowley;

I saw the forum Baxters talking about.

It's just a bunch of people from the south (who probably have never even seen rust before) saying "That cars past its prime" due to the fact it has minor surface door rust.

The P.O. who originally built it drove it in the winter but kept good care of it.

I don't care what anyone says;

I like it; it was super cheap (by my standards atleast);it's MY car; it's rare; and until I find out its totally rotted to hell and unrepairable (Looks relatively spotless actually..) I won't be getting rid of it anytime soon!

It's the first EVER M30B35 swapped touring in the U.S. and the swap is proper as fuck.

Baxter likes his E30 but won't sell it for anything less than 6k. Everyone thinks thats over priced. Does Baxter care? No. It's his car; he likes it; and that's what he'd sell it for.

My E30 was far from a perfect car and I also got cash ontop of the trade so I'm very happy.

H8ers gunna H8.

Or people are jealous that they don't have a swaggin' waggin'. who knows, right?!
