Hi guys.
I sold my first E30, my 3 year project to buy this car, only to discover that life just isn't going to let me use it the way it needs to be used. I'm making some changes in my personal life, so the toys need to go for a little while.

I'm certain I'm forgetting things and will update the thread accordingly when I remember more.
The paint/cage work was performed in 2006 and was used as a class legal SCCA ITS race car. The guy I bought it from bought the shell, re-gasketed and refreshed a 108,000 mile motor. He put just enough miles on it to partially tune it, then put it in storage. I bought it un-finished and made it drive-able. I've put less than 500 miles on it getting the tune finalized and buttoning up some un-finalized bits.
This car would be an absolute animal on the track. Kameron at KAMotors tuned the car for me and virtual dyno puts this car right around 260whp/290lb-ft of torque.
I'm looking to get rid of my toys for the time being to buy a house. I don't have the funds/time right now to take this car to the track like I had intended.
It has functioning headlights with indicators, bright lights with indicators, windshield wipers, turn signals, tail lights, brake lights etc. It has an open South Carolina title. I took the car to the inspection office to have them informally inspect it to verify that it was Kansas Street Legal and it is.
The car runs great now and always stays cool. The idle could use a little bit of final tweaking because it climbs to ~1100 RPM after warm. Shifter could use a re-fresh as it's a little floppy and has an autozone shift knob. Videos with proof of how the car performs are included below.
Weather has been super shitty so I haven't had a chance to clean the car and take better pictures, but I've posted below what I have.
SOLD I will help negotiate shipping with buyer if the're not local.

Known Issues:
-Small oil leak at bitch tube
-Small oil drip from oil return (not sure exactly where, but over 3 week span it dripped probably quarter sized spot)
-S2.93 is whiney. Another should come with the car, or I may swap it out depending on how much time I have before sale.
-Crack in driver's side tail light
UPDATE- Currently the tachometer isn't wired. Since I converted to wasted spark and the car does not utilize the tach signal from the coil. I will include info I have on how to re-wire that, but it has to do with the MS box.
Spare Parts I may include depending on sale price:
-Z3 1.9 Steering rack
-3.46 LSD
-4.10 LSD
-Steering Knuckle with aluminum bushing
