So, my name is Kristofers and im from Latvia, and this is my dailiy'ish e36.
Laguna green metalic 96' 318is
Owned this car for about a year now, but still havent done much to it, because of in how good shape it was when i bought it.
*trowback*

From that moment all ihave done is put on koni coils, changed brake discs, and blocks(or whatever they are called) put on fog lights, and wheels and tires



Despite all that, if any one wants to buy, or trade( preferbly 4-door) im down.

So my second car.
95' Nissan 200sx
Inported this from Japan for 9500 V$, completely mint, unmolested, im the 3rd owner got it with 75723 miles on the clock. I bought it with an idea to turn it into a drift car, but now looking at it its allmost too good to even modify.


Cheers

Thanks, i'll think about s54 swamp since i have second car. So, did some small comsmetic changes on e36, glued yellow film on head lights, changed tail lights and got an m3 wing with brake light.



taillights was 30V$ and wing was 150V$
Silvia got registred so now i can drive it and suspension upgrades got kit of used koni coils for 850V$ drowe to Lithuania to get r33 wheels but they were cracked alot, dude offered me these reverse meshies with fresh tires for 450V$ atcualy i think this looks betther that r33's would look, love this stance. Now all i want is navan kit from the cosmetic side.



Yeah guess i dint...

S54
I had thought about it some time ago (like 2 months ago), because one local tuner sold his old race car with full s54 swap, or more correct would be an s54 swap sorunded by garbage he wanted for whole car 6,5k V$, i went back then after it thinking that the shell isnt that bad, but it was full of rust putty and makroflex. Tried to get it under 5,5V$ but it was way too low for him, noone really wanted it since how big of a turd the car it self was for the price. Now yesterday i get a call saying that he will give me it for 5kV$ but only if i pick it up with a tow truck in 2 hours. No time to waste, called a friend had a trailer and we drowe after it. Well the shell looked even worse, the seat was broken out of rails, and the only thing holding floor together was carpet, but that dint really matter since the engine alone costs somwhere around that price, and you have to find it, witch would be impossible here.

So here it is, dosent seem that bad from the outside, but everywhere you remove or look behind is rust, putty and makroflex.

Remowed intake manifold for more space.

And here the beast realesed from the shit box. Remowed gear box to take it to diagnostics to see if im not fucked. Also the engine mounts made me trow abit up, the fab work on this is just discusting.
P.s. anything on the blueshit box is for sale, check classfields.

I guess i should start actualy doing something, and thats why i bought two e34's but on that in next update, now it about my s14. I like i said some time before
i wanted navan kit for my silvia, at first i thought im gona get some some what quallty knock offs. But first thought ill try my luck in the only jdm junkyard in Latvia, and i got lucky, there was fresly crashed s14 with full navan kit and some more stuff i wanted like ambers. They wanted universe for the whole car (it was in a banana) thats why just got the parts i wanted and paid abit less uninverse(2k) for all, it was the same color so that was qwite bit of bonus for me. Also friend gave me to test his wheels, im not sure if i want them. But i do really like this stance.

So since e34 is sort of done(not really project cars are never done) but nevertheless i saw on local e36 forum this crashed 320i, that by the look of pictures that had bent just the front TV, that comfirmed upon inspection. Its 1997 calysorot metalic 320i from extras it has power windows.



Took it to a body shop and rented gemoetry stand for few hours and pulled out front.

Also big news mowed into a new warehouse with some friends, from expenses its the same since were 5, but its really cool has tools and room.

I think its time for me to build a race car, i wanted to get e30 thats why i got japanese e30. I knew there arent any reasonoble deals in Baltic states, tho there are some really nice stock examples here. Thats why contacted local importer and cut a nice deal on shipping from Japan. Spent few weeks constantly checking auction sites. Bided on few, but nothing. Then lovered standarts and tried again, found this fairly cheap, but also runned down sprinter coupe, since noone wanted it i got it cheap.
Heres pictures from ad.


Has a really nice Nardi wheel, front srut bar and really old school coilovers and wheels. Engine had some mods before but i think owner remowed them before selling(exhaust, intake maifolds) Also looks like its been build in the 90's has a lot of period like things, also its been painted and its really faded.



I was really scared but i remowed moldings and side skirts that reweal the rust...



Disasembled some body parts, front was preety hard because it was allover the place and brackets were bent. I coulnt close the headlights because of that.
For now thats it, now ill start to hack up it.

I kinda agree whit you bout that. Go for modern suspension tweak the engine from a blue top switch to black top he can get a lot more hp + some other upgrades

yeah but the blue one has an real bad ECU adjust mine 86 i jut put an performace exhaust and an new air filter Plus some hours of dyno tunning and he is making 170hp at the wheels and non cams or internal upgrades.but if you had some money you can spent at an black top.and with some upgrades he can get mad and the other positive point is that the black top is an quite modern than the blue.

Hi there, well its been more than year since my last update, i've been busy with breaking pc's, real cars n shit. Started up slrr first time in months yesterday, and this night i don't feel like sleeping much so decided to start this thing up just for fun, sorry for kinda *cheating* but ill try to make it realistic and fun for me and the few readers lol, i probably wont get myself to do another update in another year lol...or mabey i will heheheh

*Year has passed*


Hi there,
(the roleplay fucker starts talking)
haven't updated anything because there wasn't much to update since most of my projects were sold due to lack of space, time and the fact that i bought a house. I bought it half finished, and did most of the work for it myself with the help of family and friends, but since it got finished 2 months ago, finally some time and money freed up for car projects hehe.
What goes for my old projects, the red e36 sold for reasonable 2k, i just could'n put the e34 for sale, so i offered it to my brother and he took it off my hands while it staying in my eye sight for 3750, id say thats qwite a fucking bargain. But when it comes to ae86, its still sitting in a friends garage corner full of spares dust and just junk, for now i don't want to touch it lol. So, few months ago was browsing the classfields when came across this 98' 325i coupe listed for 2,5k looked really clean in the picture, but what got me to get the phone and call was the color sierra rot it was in. Went took a look, pictures dint lie it was really clean, only 2 rust bubbles on the whole body. When got in it realized it has leather vader seats. Owner suggested that he can give the car for 1,7k if i take without the vaders and m-tech 2 wheel, well i was down, so we loaded it on a trailer and took out the seats and wheel.

Picture from the ad.

At home.

Firstly got some status seats and a deep dish nardi, so i could even use it.

Next put it on some good old cheap TAtehnix's from a past project, and style 5's i got for a steal.


Later that night. heheheh

For about an month drowe it around like that, and in the mean time collected m tech pieces.

Test fit, before sending to painter.

While m-tech got painted, changed few details, chrome grille, yellow low beams, and white indicators.

Here, allready done.

Few days ago stayed in work longer to weld the exhaust tip and take few nicer shots.


The missing emblem really bothered me so i put on a hood bra.



Sorry for the bit unrealistic, cookie cutter build, just wanted have bit of fun :))

Daily wagen

Well since e36 is the opposite of an pratical daily commuter, had to look for something more resonable. Allways liked the idea about older volvos, 850 and first gen v70 seemed like the best option. Shortly after founds this well equpiped 850, wasnt cheap though. Its an 96' 2.5tds so some disel shenanigans might happen heheh.
