You bastard I envy you for buying 325 :twisted: jk :wink: White is damn beautiful, I suggest to fix the worst parts of rust before the winter and do the whole paint after the winter.

Congrats mate, she is a beautie!! :wink:

As I already know what you got with the car(parts) I have to say you are one lucky bastard! :D

Paint the front grill in black when you get one it will look very good in black ;)

Anyway - he has another one in mind, 325i with the M-Sport package... so stay tuned, the Scuderia Dimas will announce a new acquisition in the following weeks...

Hope to hear something soon! :D

ARMAN
12-03-2006, 01:38 PM
My brother tried one last friday... and it was almost perfect, except the fact that it was a 325e, with 130hp. Didn't know there was a 'lower' version to the 170hp 325i :? :?

Anyway - he has another one in mind, 325i with the M-Sport package... so stay tuned, the Scuderia Dimas will announce a new acquisition in the following weeks... :wink: :mrgreen:

325e is economical version, I wanted to buy it when was looking for beemer. Fuel consumption just as 1,8 8)

Igorionia
12-05-2006, 11:26 AM
well. If hes new to RWD cars, 325e is not so bad
cuz 325i with 170hp is really powerfull car for noobs like me! :)
Needs time to get used to it. :oops:
and it's perfect for practise in Drifting and stuff

waiting for first snow and New Year vacations :D

Igorionia
12-05-2006, 03:08 PM
^ well - he wanted a M3 actually... and went for a 325i first - coz it was better to 'learn' :wink:
LOL - m3 for noobs :shock:

ARMAN
12-05-2006, 03:28 PM
Dani tell him to go for M3 better than 325 if its not the matter of money!

Sorry for OT Igorionia :wink:

TopGearNL
12-05-2006, 07:08 PM
sadly - money counts... Confused

The M3 is now no cheaper than 12,000€ - and the 325i hardly reaching 3,000€ Wink

BTW - today I've been offered a Renault 11 Turbo with Koni suspensions, new turbo, intercooler and wheels... for 2000€ - quite tempting, isn't it?

Yeah money always counts for most of us sadly...

Thats a huge difference though! :shock:

Consider the Renault Dani! 8)

Back on topic - Igorionia you should make some vids I'd love to see those 171 pony's in action :P

12-05-2006, 07:18 PM
Too bad we don't have any place to store it - and to work on it now...

Wow sounds like you have a great car there Dani. But in this case maybe its better to just look further :wink:

Igorionia
12-06-2006, 02:22 AM
I'm glad dani that your brother not in love with Renault like you :wink:
I'd prefer e30 for sure. But i Like some of Renaults too (old Clio Williams, Clio Turbo, new one Clio Trophy etc) anyway rwd is rwd.
video ? - first of all i should fix some stuff in this car, get some parts, Maybe after...

Exactly; the last renault turbo era was when renault had the whole range consisted on the turbo engines as the top of the range such as the renault 5, renault 9/11, renault 21, renault 25, and the renault alpine; after that we have never had any renault turbo model unless if we consider just two models; the renault safrane biturbo, and the megane rs; btw dani, didnt you come to the basque country on holidays, or you are keeping the eye on JW by using a portable pc?

the problem was that a good friend of mine (who is a mechanic and already owns 4 e30) had no time the previous week and the car was over 4 driving hours away :(

maybe I will visit a silver 318is this week

ARMAN

yep 318is(sport?) have 16valves and 136PS so its more powerful than 2l but a smaller insurance rate :) its always a fight in discussions about e30 wich is better 318is or 325 :) i'd go for 325 :P

In E30 form, in the US, the 318iS is definitely more desirable than the 325is.

IMHO sound of straight 6 is mindblowing 2.5 is the best ofcourse :twisted: No 1.8 can have that sound even with a nice exhaust, M3E30 is a bit different story :)

TopGearNL
01-02-2007, 06:37 PM
if I had to chose between the 325i and the 318is... with "only" 136hp - I'd take the 325: better soundtrack and more power :wink:

I also would definatly take a 325 - but if I had to choose between 318is and 320i I would take the 318is because the 320i has not much torque at low revs.

to compare the sounds
320i: very silky and smooth
318is: more like a raceengine

Interesting :D

Igorionia
01-02-2007, 06:51 PM

That's the way to go... glad to see the "family" is growing! :D

I would like very much to have a 320iS, I think it's a very special model because it's an M car, almost the same thing has the m3, with the first gear-back and the Getrag gearbox.

Here in Portugal, values are around 10.000€ and 18.000€, depending on the condition and mileage.

Let's see... for now, let's see if this year I finish my Cooper S project, then I'll think in something RWD. Would like a 911-993, but maintenance costs are still too high... even if I share the car with my dad, he likes cars but he isn't as nuts has I. :D

I want to see that 325 e30 rolling!!! :D

You only notice an improvement at low revs? I'd imagine that chip would allow you to rev higher?

dutchmasterflex

Whats wrong with the camshaft? I'm looking into getting a 325i with high mileage (120,000 MILES+)

Igorionia
04-16-2007, 03:09 PM
camshaft is ok. But many sportcars or tuned engines works hard till 1000rpm.
Don't know maybe we just need to rise revs till 1k
But it's annoying to hold your foot on the gas pedal when you stop and stuff

talkin about e30 325i - use search.

dutchmasterflex
04-16-2007, 03:49 PM
Maybe need to raise the auto choke of your engine so it keeps it above 1000rpm? Although you should be able to run it at idle under 1000rpm.

ARMAN
04-16-2007, 04:01 PM
nice :)

why wouldnt you just put there 3,5 from e34 or e32? http://www.e30.de/335e.htm you will have over 200hp without tweaking anything and as it will be stock there will be smaller chance for breakdowns 8)

don't want 3.5 - cuz i'm too young for that. We have two e30 with 3.5. And they are FAST! BTW 3.5 - that's old engine
325 for practise
chip improvment ? Chip programmed to raise rmp a little at idle (about 1000). But I have about 900 (maybe 800). Engine works like American V8 :roll:
and ofcourse + few hp and if i'm not mistaken higher rpm limiter

maybe it will look better with Mtech II front spoiler + side skirts.
Once more not ready to install it yet.

I'm not interested to make this car look "cool"
It's my practise vehicle. And I don't want crash this car with mtechII and some expensive ant rare stuff.

Emm... weird question, but yes! I do it myself.

Yeah, I was clueless to whether or not bolting a wheel by hand(realistically by foot) was good enough to keep them on while drifting.

If and whenever I get my E30 I'll be swapping the rear tires quite often ;)

Wheels fits perfectly ,without spacers and stuff. Only needs to roll the fenders and ofcourse frop it to the ground! :D :twisted: :twisted:

05-14-2007, 03:48 PM
That not the only one set of rims for my e30 :) So don't worry
Can't wait to repair my BBS RS R15 and to install them on my e30

You know it's hard to buy expensive parts if you're student! and have not enough money :roll:

dutchmasterflex
05-14-2007, 03:51 PM
Definitely a visual improvement, but how's the extra grip when drifting?

Igorionia
05-14-2007, 03:55 PM
exhtra grip ? :) WTF man!
the tire is 225/45 R17
I got the same tires on my Alpinas (maybe a little bit higher tire)
So the tires are the same
only difference I could notice, Wheel weight
Car acceleration a lot slower on 2 and 3 gear

dutchmasterflex
05-14-2007, 04:16 PM

Alpinas R16x7
BBS RS 15x7
AZEVs 17x10

Seems like you scrounged up a nice pile of wheels for your E30!

I don't want to speculate much.. but within a few months I may the be a proud owner of a black '87 325is with bilsteins shocks, h & r shocks and borla exhaust :D

Igorionia
09-18-2007, 02:37 PM
the R16 RS not for e30
they are 5x120 looks like more for e34
I'd like to have e34 touring 525tds
for everyday
R16x8/9 will fit perfectly

BTW those 16x10 for e34 too. They are 5x120

but it's not hard to fit those wheels ant on e30
but...

we will see


dutchmasterflex - e30 nice car. Only advice I will give. Try to find NOT rusted one.

Igorionia
09-18-2007, 03:09 PM

same here

I just don't want to invest $$$ in rusted car

e30 is nice. but it's 20 year old car!!!
Fun to drive. But...

dont even know what should I do?
sell it!
repair suspension and "drift till it die"
or....
I don't know :(

dutchmasterflex
09-18-2007, 06:37 PM
oh yea, forgot to mention it's a southern car, with ZERO rust ;)

When I was on the look out, rust was the main thing I was told to look for. The guy who found the E30 I mentioned builds BMW track cars and has made tons of money rebuilding rusted E30s :lol: He claims this 325is has no rust.

Seems the perfect E30 has finally come my way.. the seller is also installing a new racing seat with the sale.

decide to post some pix for inspire myself
and for you guys to not forget my 325i

plans for the future.

-shadowline
-side skirts
-fog lights
-to repaint chrom grill into black

and maybe m50b25 swap. Drove few days ago e30 touring with m50b25. 200hp N/A engine. Damn I like it! Plus it's more economical, new, more torque and HP. And it's not so expensive.

So I know that MIHALS, ARMAN, Dani's bro got Chromed Grills
I'm not a fan of them. If you'll decide to paint em black. Maybe it will help you.
Looks Like i got some Sweden or I don't know what kind of Grill but it's without holes in it. Plus some Christmas LED's :D I have no idea who did it!
So plans was to delete chrome. Make holes in grill and paint everything black. No finished pix, sorry guys. But i'll post em when i'll finish.

My advise. take the chrome part from the grill OFF! and use steel knife!
You can actually and paint em without takin off the crome. But paint holds VERY bad!


replacin my old steering wheel with MOMO Corse. Like it very much!
