There is one thing that I would go whit it and thats Air Ride. Set a ultra low settings for the passiv, and set a normal ride height (thats higher than the speed bumps) for normal mod, some sick aloys whit some stretched tires and thats all u need to turn every single head around!!!!

I'm not a huge fan of air ride, plus i almost never deal with speed bumps unless they're in a parking lot and than they're easy to avoid. I'm actually looking at some different rims but not to totally replace the HREs since i love them.

I'm planning on EJ swapping it, My friends cousin knows a guy that has one swapped with an STI engine so im gonna try to get a hold of him but the problem is i think my friends cousin got deported so it might be hard.

The new engine is finally here! Well was here anyway, i sent it out to a tranny shop to get the cars original tranny fitted to the engine. I already have mounts for it so once i get it back i'll drop the engine in and send it out to get the wiring done. Also a friend of mine is working on something pretty "big" for the E36, which hopefully will be done before the transmission.

Damn Almost forgot to post the pics.

@Marcus After i get the wiring done i'll be getting it tuned by PSI(Same shop that built Tuerck's FD car a few years ago)


Don't like the way the air filter looks i'll probably get a new one in the future.

As for the surprise

I guess that for an light car as the beetle a EJ will affect the weigth at mines i am putting an HAYABUSA engine that is lighter than the 1600 and allow me to move the center of gravity more to the front getting an 45/55 distribuition

Jesus that is a huge wing! Portlsnd Speed Industries should be able to set you up well with that motor. Though, if you ever choose to go turbo and want anti-lag, Nameless Performance may be the way to go ;)

Dropped the E36 off at the shop this morning. Should have it back in a few days.

Honestly, i'm probably just gonna use it for drag racing and cruising. I have a plan for a future circuit/autocross car.

It's gotta be huge man, i'm gonna turn this hoopty into a hoonicorn! and I'm probably not going to turbo it for awhile, the S54 should make enough power to keep me happy for long enough. Also i totally forgot about SV Performance, seems like they sponsor half the Pro-Am guys in the Northwest.

I got the E36 back a couple days ago but forgot to bring my camera so i didn't get any pics of it on the dyno but came out at 338hp and 155tq. Also been kinda busy for the last few days so i didn't get any pics but last night i went out to a parking lot, Unfortunately i was only able to get 1 rip in because we heard sirens go off right after and since the e36 isn't registered and doesn't have plates so we had to dip.


Also got a pic of the Evolvo for the photo comp.

If you want to do something on the Evolvo, I'd suggest you to get a Volvo 855R bodykit, they look so good and I can help you to get one here from sweden as I know a guy that has a kit for sale (although it is green but that is what repainting is for, right?)

Also I just figured out our Volvos look almost the same in the front end! just colors that sets the difference :awesome:

@Fluffy Honestly i like the look of the base model bumpers best, a 850R wing might be dope tho.


Went to a skate park with a few friends (Which was a healthy reminder of how much i still suck) and decided since i was going to post a reply i might as well get a pic.
Got lazy with the blur but whatevs.

SO before heading home the other day my friend me about a steering wheel he's had laying around so i decided buy it for the Beetle since the old one was wearing pretty bad ((Kept crashing my game))



So i'll probably swap in an EJ20 soon but that will probably be all until the E36 isn't a total hoopty

That's a very flashy wheel you got there. Good idea for an engine swap too, you'll still have a flat 4 so i think EJ20 will be a perfect fit. :)

EJ20 in a Beetle? That sounds awesome, should make good power with the Beetle's light chassis. I love the wang on the E36, can't wait to see more

Yea realized the rainbow really didn't go well with the camo green so i swapped the wheels from the e36.

It should be. In the future i plan to swap in a EJ257.

The E36 looks like it's got some serious body roll :O could use some swaybars or stiffer spring rates, looks like you have a lot of compression. The Nardi wheel looks sick though :D

Also yea the body roll is real, but the rain is coming in the Northwest and there's only a handful of events for the rest of the year so i think im gonna wait until i swap the beetle and then try to make it to the last few events.

I made it to day 2 of parcfest but was only able to get in 3 runs.

The rear tires were pretty bald and one finally blew on the last lap so i bought a pair of Sawblades with newish tires off a guy in the pits. The Sawblades have more tread on them than the z32 rims so i put them on the front instead.

((Forgot to add motion blur to the wheels))

Hah, he was actually there too. Pretty sure he put a TeamTracker decal on the side to try to avoid recognition.

And since i was slacking on the photoshop on the last 2 pics here's a better one.
