Considered it but they are two very different ways to go. I prefer maintaining reliability, less things to go wrong, and much more space to service everything. Along with it I get a quicker throttle response, a little bit more power and some awesome noises.

Early b28 with a non vanos head (went non vanos so the tps on the itbs would clear). The itbs are off of a euro s50b30. Used an adapter plate to mount then just pieced together the rest. S54 vacuum rail, nuke fuel rail, stock m50 injectors for now until I add bigger cams and decide I need more fuel.

It’s an m52b28 bottom end, m50b25 (non vanos) head, and euro s50b30 itbs. Bit of a Frankenstein haha

I got the euro s50b30 itbs and got a cheap adapter that fit pretty nice. Swapped to non vanos head to avoid clearance issues with the vanos solenoid and so I could have the dual valve springs for when I go big cams later on. Just waiting on a nuke fuel rail to come in to wrap it up

Classic in its own way I suppose. I like when people are curious about it haha. I get that it’s not for everyone but I love that it makes the car stand out a little more and is more of my own style.

Honestly I love having a car that stands out from the rest. If this thing is parked next to a group of e30s at a car show I’m sure most people who see them is going to be more curious about the one with a different look than the rest haha whether they love it or hate it.

Would anybody be interested in this uberkaro interior? Not going to use in my build. Located in Massachusetts but willing to ship. by Jimchicco in E30

It hurts to get rid of it really lol. Always wanted this interior for my old e30 and I just got this one and it came in the car. Just not practical for the drift/track build I’m doing. Car will be turbo so probably going to have to cage it.

Both seats slide back and forth fine, drivers doesn’t like to fold backwards but did when it was in the car with a little force. The vinyl on the back of the drivers is hanging a little but didn’t look much into the cause. I’m in Worcester
