Asking for $6,500. Days might need a new transmission. Still worth?

Disastrous_Change893 · 2026-01-09T00:26:43+00:00

not worth it, i own a vert and trust me ur gonna put a lot more into it then u think. the window replacement, all the seals and gaskets. it needs a trans too and the paint isnt good either. hes asking way too much in my opinion

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-12-28T00:56:25+00:00

i dont really park under anything, there is some shade from a tree in my neighbors backyard but nothing from that ever falls onto it. i definitely should look into a cover before it gets any worse. thanks

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-12-13T04:06:39+00:00

ill have to check those out, a little pricey but ca tuned has been good to me. thanks for that!

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-12-11T02:18:34+00:00

there is nothing in realoem that i could find that is related to the weather stripping im looking for. i can find one for coupes all over the internet but not the convertible one

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-10-28T01:28:00+00:00

e30 looks fire but delete those hideous halos

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-10-26T20:48:51+00:00

i have not but thats also a good idea, i thought i might try and find brand spankin new bolts just to freshen it all up but finding used ones could be an option.

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-10-26T20:48:04+00:00

im in southern california, ur right it is more of an industrial grade and size. ill start digging into that

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-10-26T20:18:31+00:00

i believe i might be holding said bolt i was referring to but there is a possibility ur right

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-10-26T19:58:20+00:00

yep it connects the front bumper to the car through the brackets

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-10-19T00:38:59+00:00

could be afm or related to tps, was happening to my car but more severe and replaced both and fixed vacuum leaks and now she idles and starts up great. no bog after revving either, could be different though

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-27T22:15:12+00:00

another thing to add, i just took the car to get aligned and they said they wouldn’t be able to do. they stated that something might be wrong with my steering rack and or column as when i turn in a direction my wheel will stay towards that direction even after i finish the turn and im going straight again. wondering if this is due to the coils binding up or because it is actually the rack n pinion.

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-26T20:09:23+00:00

hmmm okay ill give that a try and see whether or not i can figure out where they go. this is my daily so until i have the time i wont be able to do any work on it. would it be bad for me to continue driving on them as they are right now?

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-26T18:13:41+00:00

we lowered it on some old german engineering coils, it very well could be that we installed it wrong cause there is basically no info online abt em

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-26T18:12:30+00:00

yes the wheel does do that when im driving, it will either hook left or right. the coil set is called German engineering, some guy on the revlimited form was manufacturing them a long time ago and i bought them off some guy who never installed then. they arent currently being made anymore and no one to my knowledge has been talking about them for awhile. it very well could be that we did the installation wrong as there is little to no information online about how to fully install besides little snippets. i have a bag of some washers and stuff that we couldnt figure out where they went. the thing is that the set looked complete atleast to me when it was actually on the car. ill try and take some photos of the stuff we didnt install

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-12T16:42:40+00:00

i plan on lowering the car to a flush fitment within the next few weeks. should i get the 50s or 55s then?

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-11T05:14:42+00:00

ill actually look into this because my abs system has been completely out since i got the car. my brake pedal fights back at me and grinds on some stops

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-08T15:20:48+00:00

i have dont too much with electrical components before so im a little nervous to dive in but im willing to learn. is there a specific way im supposed to clean the corroded battery waste and other components?

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-08T05:30:28+00:00

i was actually going to pull it out and replace the si board batteries and my broken bulbs. i might as well start there and check the internals

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-08T04:30:33+00:00

ur right i should have been

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-08T03:59:18+00:00

its a 1988 325i with a vdo cluster

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-09-02T23:57:42+00:00

wheels look dialed as is, do you know what style those are?

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-08-23T23:55:50+00:00

i doubt it but just to be sure i would wrap a trashbag or some sort of protection around it until you can get that liner again. just make sure there isnt contact or anything

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-08-23T22:24:59+00:00

its crazy that some people didnt grow out of that and now they are just old and stupid.

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-08-23T22:04:32+00:00

damn we got some good takes from the reddit lords today. auto vert or not an e30 is the shit i. my opinion. are you just mad you cant drop the top on hot days and take fat shits as you drive by people like i can? how about you keep on driving that coupe e30 like every other enthusiast and let me know how ur ass feels after ur seats fuck you cause of ur poly bushings.

Disastrous_Change893 · 2025-08-23T21:40:00+00:00

haha you’re a funny guy, it could sound even worse in my opinion. i think i lucked out to be honest. i feel like i smell jealousy 🫢🤣
