          Newman = nemesis = 'orrible c*nt?

          Impressive list. What model g'box you going with? Hopefully the R33 5MT as it is a fair chunk stronger than the ol' R32 nugget.

            Right now I'm going to use an R32 AWD transmission modified to be RWD only.

                  i am curious about how you got the e34 seats tto mount up in the e30. the sizes are totally different and the mounts are even more so. whats more is i'm curious as to how you made them functional (if you did). if you did all of this mad props to you my friend cause seriously thats a lot of work.
