Exclamation HI-BOOST's E30 2JZGTE SWAP Project

So sad we don't have a "Project Build" section, maybe now we will.

Purchased the car about a year ago from Pinellas Park. Some of you may know this car.
1986 BMW 325E (car was stock when purchased)
HP Goal: 600-700 Reliable

My goal is to make it a Street/Track car with a CLEAN swap and make it some what a sleeper.

Current Mod list:
-JDM 2jzgte
-R154 Trans
-1jzgte Bell Housing
-1jzgte flywheel w/ ARP studs
-HPF Feramic 700hp clutch kit
-r154 fork
-custom drive shaft
-Haltech e6k standalone
-FMIC
-Tial 50mm Bov
-Gauges -AEM Wideband, Boost, Oil
-6k HID's
-Fuel Cell
-255LPH in-tank and a 1000hp aeromotive external
-All new fuel lines
-FPR
-MBC
-Oil Catch Can
-Eibach lowering springs
-Engine cut off switch (by license plate)

Future Mods:
-Roll Cage
-Bucket Seats w/ harness
-Suspension
-Wheels
-Single T67 Billet
-Exhaust Mani
-HKS/Tial Wastegate
-Tune
-Lots of boost

*When I purchased the car*







*Started to do work*




*Under the knife*





























Yet to do:
-Install all fuel lines and finish fuel system
-Install FMIC and do piping
-Install gauges and electronics
-Wire the standalone
-Finish the exhaust
-Install the radiator
-Tune the car

Hope everyone enjoy my project, feel free to ask questions.

thanks dude, glad you do. I love the e30 m tech kit.. but I been thinking about leaving the diving boards, maybe tucking them in and getting the chrome out on them while leaving it stock looking. We'll see how money is like once i finish the motor and get it running.

Thanks man, i can't wait my self to get her out of the shop. Its been a good 6months.

I am currently working on my website so everyone can see the whole shabang on one place rather then have tons of threads and info all over. It will be a blog site so people can subscribe, comment and ask questions.
