RB26 E30 BMW

Thanks to Jeroen from Speedhunters for kindly throwing this build my way. Once again, everyone’s favourite car (or should I say, the Internet’s favourite car), the E30 BMW, get’s some major lovin’. This one’s getting it’s new heartbeat from Nissan’s finest, an RB26DETT (with both T’s removed and replaced with one big T). Purists look away.

  1. There are so many things I love about this. The engine, the exhaust routing, the overfenders, the cage, the fact that it’s an e30… I mean, I don’t know what I don’t like. I guess 315-series tires would be better in the rear, but that’s hardly a big complaint I could hold against it.

  2. HOLY CRAP! ive been following this build since 07! man, its got paint! cant wait to see it finished. glad i stumbled across this thread
