This page contains links to all the different projects I have undertaken on my car.  Over the past 5 years I have done a lot of work on this car and have removed, repaired, or replaced every piece of this car that is not welded in place.  All the work shown in these projects has been done by myself unless otherwise noted.

My basic philosophy and goal with this car is to keep the exterior and interior looking pretty close to stock.  The rest of the car is a different story.  I decided I wanted to stay with a normally aspirated M10 engine and that I wanted the car to be comfortable to drive on a daily basis.

The current list of modifications to the restored car include:

  • H&R lowering springs with Bilstein sport shocks
  • Rear disk brakes
  • 5-speed transmission and 3.91 limited slip differential
  • Metric Mechanic sport head
  • 2.2L bottom end using S14 crank and 10:1 CR Wiseco Pistons
  • Header
  • Oil Cooler
  • Aluminum 228mm flywheel with E30 M3 pressure plate
  • S14 starter motor
  • 40mm Jenvey independent throttle bodies
  • Megasquirt EFI with coil on plug ignition and idle speed control
  • Custom cold air intake
  • Engine fan delete
  • German dash
  • Non-A/C center console
  • Big tool kit
  • E30 318i alternator
  • Battery relocated to the trunk
  • Front and rear strut braces
  • Lower "Alpina style" front brace
  • Recaro sport seats
  • Leather wrapped 320is steering wheel
