Poorbuild E36 325i
Hi there!
So i decided to make a thread for my car build. I hope you will enjoy this. It will be a slow build, because of money, and because of i dont really know, how to do things. Yes, it will be a learning time for me
The car is a '93 E36 325i coupe, with mtech suspension (with bilstein shock), stock brakes, stock half-skin sport seats with limb-support. The engine is an M50B25 no-vanos version, and it has a sperr differential (LSD).
And sorry for my english
I will upload pictures today, later.
My target is to get this car to a better condition (clutch, brakes need to be changed to a new one), and also to make it able to drift.
Next summer i want to go to some local events to try learning drift.
Thats all for now

Oh man the addiction is there for a long long time, since i got my very first car, a bmw E30 sedan, 1989, 316i in white color. Ill post pic of that too.
So now here is the E36 coupe
2013-07-24 19.49.jpg 2013-07-24 19.49_21.jpg
I got the car only for 380.000 HUF (~1900$/~1300euro)
It is beaten down as sh*t, because it was outside in the town for half year, where bad people kicked down the mirrors, bmw logos, etc...
After that, it is moved to a working area, to be "safe", but there the grass and everything just growed around it, so we had the pull it out from the sh*t
But for the very first start after half year, it started for the first time, without any problems! The engine is in very good state, only some oil leaking, but we need only to change the valve sealant.
So after i got it home (after testing it out to 180km/h on highway to home ), i just bought two mirrors which are carbon-leafed, but they are ugly really. So i will remove it and replace it with some good carbon-leaf.
It isnt even wired inside, so i can only change the position by getting out of car D
The car had some water-heat rising problems. After a few days we finally found out, that the water was just not enough inside the engine, and also we had to let out the air of the system. So now it is no problem for no more
I had made slide in a little parking lot, and also gone out in the night for a local, hmm let it call "night event" where other people go high speeds from red light to next light. so i just nearly killed the clutch, thats why i waiting and not using it like it has to used now.
More picture coming soon.. stay tuned!

Here some update: less talk more pics.
emeles.jpg got some new fluid into LSD.
difiolaj.jpgWe had some problem to park up to the lever, but after 15min s*cking we managed to park up Its coz my suspension is really low, with some bilstein shocks.
Some weeks later after that water temp started to rise up.
So a after a few circles i had to stop on the side of the road, wait till the temp lowers, then i refilled with anti-freeze fluid.
Now its sitting home, i wont use because im now moving to a new house... (you know what it means... )
But it isnt means i wont do nothing with it.
Me and my friend stripped out the interior. We know nothing about this part,we arent engineers, car-repairers, so i was a little scared after we pulled out the inside "floor carpet", that we wont manage to connect everything back to its place or even will it start But it all went good and its working. Now its MUCH louder inside, you know, a little race car feelin.

So i bought a new cooler, brake pads, took out everything from inside. Only the two rear seats are inside now with the center box (shifter etc).
Also got some tyres to use.
Then i changed oil etc usual stuff.
