This is so nicely built it is incredible. Keep up the work, I hope to one day own an e30 this clean.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the praise! I am looking at buying some new goodies so hopefully I'll have some good stuff to post soon!

[pandaboo911]

Did you ever get a sound clip / video of your exhaust?

[Bimmian89]

Those came from Condor Speed Shop.

As for the exhaust vid....Still haven't got to it, but that will get me something fun to work on over the weekend. Look out for one!

Hey dude, thanks for the compliment! My old wheels are sold, but the BBS may go later this year for something new, so stay tuned on that, haha!

The 2.93 is great for daily use. When coupled to the ZF transmission, the ratios are awesome on the highway. 70mph is about 3k rpm in 5th or there abouts. Plenty of power all around in any gear as well. If I ever turbo or SC, it will suit that type of setup nicely. It's also nice that those aren't too costly since they aren't the most popular LSD.

No problem man. Yeah thats good to hear since I just bought one, my brother has the 3:25 LSD and its horrible on the highway.

Been a while since I did any sort of update...I've been doing a few things and actually have a good amount brewing for my e30 in the next few weeks!

First, I put in a urethane steering guibo. I felt my steering wheel had some slop and this really helped...it's made by IE.



You can see in the pic that the factory guibo is pretty worn...expected for 25 years and 230k miles! Installed:



I am working on an interior color change as well....currently sourcing parts. I'll keep it on the mum until I get it finalized.

ALSO, I've been building this:



It's a low profile, equal capacity oil pan to improve my ground clearance! I made a mini-build thread for it in the 24v forums...read here if you like:

Did I mention that I put a turbo drain on my new pan??



That's all for now...stay tuned for more updates soon!

[jaywood]

Uh-oh. I smell boost.

[Dj Buttchug]

holy shit dude that pan is sick
