I did a e36 swap
Posted: Sat Aug 06, 2011 1:29 am
I swapped an entire car into my life. Its time to retire the beretta. Its still running great but I just want something different. I'm tired of front wheel drive in general and I want something a little more comfortable for daily driving once I go back to my internship. As for the beretta, I dont know what I am going to do with it. Its likely going to get slightly parted out then turned into some kind of track car. I dont think I can sell it, I am too attached to it.
So details on the car:
1993 325is
2.5l straight 6
5-speed (obviously, one of the tightest trannies I ever felt. Its a getrag)
LSD
Short shifter
Racing dynamics sway bars
Ebay rear lower control arms
Strut tower braces front and rear
M3 wheels staggered/ 245's in rear 225's up front (currently stripping gay black paint off)
M3 bumpers, sideskirts, mirrors, wing, etc.
Random CAI
Some type of ss catback, nice and quiet but sounds good. Nothing like a 660 tho
Carbon fiber hood with gay hood pins
Aftermarket headlights with angel eyes (not my cup of tea, there coming out)
Some kind of blueish hid's
Leather, heated and powered seats, folding rear seats
Power sunroof
Other bmw luxuries
What it needs:
Front tires
Driver seat recovered
Rear sway bar tab welded
Center console recovered
Some things "de-rigged"
An oil change
Alignment
New door latch
Interior and exterior cleaning
A/C work
A good beating
What I did:
New driveshaft support bearing
New flex coupler
All new exhaust gaskets and hangars
Fixed gauge cluster lights
Plans for this car is to be a daily driver that I may occasionally track. I already have a drift car so I will try to not drift this one but who knows


Who thinks I should do a beretta headlight swap? Does anyone have a How-to?
