'82 E21 315 Lapisblau

Post by hooligan »

Hello from Finland!

E21 - something i've allways wanted. My first trip to my life I did with my dad 320/6 E21. I think that's where the disease has begun... :D
I bought this 315 from the first original owner. 150 000 km driven for now and only in summer time. I've made some updates here and there, little by little one place at a time.

The day I bought this.

It looks like this now

And something for the interior too... Genuine leather Recaro's from E30.

There will be some changes in the interior during this summer... ;)
Much has yet to be done ...

Thanks! Yes, engine is original and works well. New shocks and 60/60 lowering springs but it's temporary solution.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Yes. A lot. But some of those those are long term plans. "Do when ever you have extra time and money" First it needs to get lower.
I already have twin webbers waiting for instal. Supersprint exhaust manifold and martelius/simons exhaust system just around the corner. Just for fun to do it, whether it makes sense or not... :D
Paint job maybe some day etc etc...
