After getting the Bahama Beige 84 323i e30 to a happy place, going to start focusing on the 1984 628csi that has been sitting for most the year.
Its pretty clean - alpine white original paint, dark green/gray cloth interior, non-cracked dash, responsive but slow m30b28... Story from prior owner is it was brought back from Europe by someone high up in the Navy. If I dig through the folder it came with - there's some import docs there.
Plans & Issues:
Parasitic draw (narrowed down to big icy 90's alpine stereo wiring)
Fuel leak (think I fixed it)
4k rpms shutter
Lower and get rid of wobbles
Updated - good sound stereo
Nice rumbly exhaust but quiet when cruising (thinking equal length header but still want to pass smog)
Decide if keep the OEM Euro black lines decals
Raise motor since oil pan is already low at this OEM height and I'll be much lower soon.
Renown Steering Wheel ;D
e24 M6 or m90 style spoiler (will need help finding it
Original E-code Highbeams to match the low beams (already found them in the junkyard, got lucky!)
OEM Fog lights - or something super bright to help see all those holes
Wire in OBC - we'll see about this.. got one but lower priority
Install BS Coilovers - align it to not kill tires after I dial in fitment.
Fender work to fit the 17x11/12 WORKS (previously from ODB)
On to the pics:
another jump cause of the draw. after a couple days, it dies. With the stereo power wire taken off the positive battery terminal - doesn't die at all...
