Black Beauty Build Thread

Post by Ozibimmer »

Hi Guys
I'm back
After a 1 year break from E24 madness I'm back. I have been super busy with my business (BMWrecking Gold Coast) wrecking early model BMWs and servicing I have decided to take some time away and get back into time out working on a new project. I sold my last 635CSi to a member here Dennis.
My race car is Finished and running great
I have the bug sooooo bad so I have decided to build a 635Csi that's the car I always wanted as a child.
So I am starting with a 1980 Factory Gloss Black Auto with Sports Recaro interior that's one owner from new with 110,000 miles from new with full service history plus LSD.
She is a Manual but not for long.
Now she has
Bilsteins suspension with King Springs
KMac front and rear sway bars
Kmac suspension camber adjusters
Recaro Interior
Very low km one owner car
LSD

This is what is happening in the next 3 weeks.
I have a donor car that's amazing but rusted out with factory Dogleg manual and its the same colour
This is coming from donor car
Dogleg 5 speed
Custom Headers
Genie Turbo Stainless Exhaust system
New tank

Ordering
ITB custom order
Emu ECU setup
Alpina steering wheel and shifter knob

Stay tuned guys big things happening very soon

Sounds great. The emu and racehead itb combo will make the m30 very happy.

Do you have plans to warm over the engine. Some big compression / cam / head work and appropriate valve train hardware is calling your name also. Perhaps moch up a damaged e30 head and make a jig so u can modify the OEM pistons so u can add a higher lift cam and thinner MLS head gasket.

I had this done to my m10 added over 1 point of valuable compression (73thou combined) without new Pistons and an engine rebuild.

Complete brake system overall with every had and soft line replaced with twin boosters replaced with a set I have completely rebuilt last year.

Tomorrow the CR Dogleg conversion begins.
