Listings of all the BMW Project cars users have done.
Well I've just embarked on yet another project... The story goes... I popped in to the last BMWNSW sprint at Eastern Creek to say hello to a couple of people. When I got there I noticed a very mangled car on a trailer in the car park. I didn't recognise the car at first, but eventually...
After some unavoidable delays I am back into my E30 V8 project. Firstly I want to say that the quantity, quality and attention to detail on some of the euro projects on ECCA at present blows me away. You all suck lol. There are just so many cars in the projects threads that I believe we Aussies...
Thought I'd restart my thread as the information is all over the shop. The story begins when I decided to sell my old car, a 1995 BMW 740iL. Whilst I loved that car (and still miss it) it simply was not the car a 20-something year old wanted to drive, especially in motor sport events. So with...
Well, finally today i took some photos of the old girl, so i thought she was worthy of a topic now that most of it's completed and on the road registered Ok, the story It all started when i was scouring ebay for a cheap car to use until i had the funds to upgrade to something better, as i had...

bought an E30 325E a while back, have done regularity at Calder, Benladen drove it at driver training at Winton and DECA, and I have done a practice day and supersprint in it at Mallala, all without doing anything to the car other than removing some interior, and fitting some worn out R comps (and...
Finally ticked the E46 M3 box. Much cheaper here in Canada than Oz so lashed out. Absolutely love the car. Wasn't too sold on the SMG or the silver but am certainly growing into them quickly. Liking them both more and more every day. Got around to a full tidy up including removing as many things...
I suppose this is what would be called a "general" project. It is not specifically aimed at any one particular area, ie: monster horsepower builds/engine swaps, big ICE, paint jobs, interior swaps, etc., etc. It is truly a "general project" that encompasses all aspects of building a reliable and...

So here is my E30. I had four priorities, it had to be a 325e, it had to be a coupe, it had to be a chromie and it had have a good strait rust free body. Being a panel beater it is far more important for me to get a car that needs little work in the way of repairs, rust ect... I looked at...

I bought my 318is in January of 2008, from someone who I have recently found out is a member here, and since then I have spent a large amount of time and money changing it greatly from stock. Originally I planned a full “M3enization” with full chroming of everything! But since finding a number of...

I've started work on the car, so am starting a project thread. A bit image shy at the moment for a variety of reasons. mostly me being slack. 1 x 1986 E30 325e manual 2 door purchased on EBAY. Plus $700.00 delivery (no brakes, so I didn't feel happy going to Sydney, trying to get brakes fixed,...
Hi Guys, Well waiting around for the E30 to be painted and returned has driven me insane, so I've decided I will put another 2jzgte into the E32. At this point in time I'm unsure how much work will be invovled, but from first looks, it appears it should fit, but I'll be placing it further...
Ok so it's been a while since I have updated on my build. So here goes past few weeks, inbetween working and drinking I have slowly cleaned parts, taken out the fuel tank flushed it, ordered new fuel hoses,pump and filters to mount all up. To do with electrical side I am planing on re locating the...
I've been saying this has being coming for a while. And now that I have started spending shitloads (well for a trainee anyway) on bits and sort of cemented the possibility tonight by buying a seat for the thing I figured I'd start my project log. The plan has always been to build an E30 and was...
