Default 1985 BMW E30 325i


Finally here are the pics of my BMW. Last sunday we had a blast. We met with some other car enthusiasts... and had a great day - plenty of drifts!! this car is even funnier than I thought!



Drift power!!



It's "only" 172,000km - but it revs as the first day... up to 6000rpm as a much younger car!

We did some videos, onboard video... but this is the only one we've upoaded by now:


I (or my brother) will post more soon

The timing belt and things that goes with it is very important to change right from the beginning its a known issue of destroyed engines of E30

Dani will upload an onboard video soon... is a 15km road, and the final is very dark with shadows and humidity. I hit some woods in one of the powerslides, you can see that in the vid

I like the steering wheel - it looks like a '70s CSL wheel - am I right?

I was too far behind in the GTT, so I couldn't see it - but you could see the panic in the passenger's face...
LOL!

I definately want to see it now!

Jaja, I remember...

The 4 wheels slided at the same time but I don't know why I finally could control the rear... only you can hear a small "clock", there were some woods at the top of the road

Ok.... mental note... DON'T be a passenger in a car with Nachete driving, I haven't seen the video, but guess the word to define it must be FEAR, lot's.... :shock:
