    shame.
    I know E21s are such junk
    They can be made to look SO GOOD (as evidenced above), but they really are just crappy.

      shame.


      That and 4 pipes on anything less than a V8 is dumb. Imagine the r3v comments if someone had quad tips on a mkiv tt supra, which has more hp stock than any NA m20 ever will.....

        TJ said the same thing. That came stock on E21's.

            I want that cluster. Hopefully Barrett gets the vehicle speed output issue fixed soon so I wont have to worry about it.
            Im now E30less.

                Naw - a e28 with blown shocks takes that cake on that one(at least the one i drove once)

                anyone recall what a e21 weighs in at?

                    I've always liked how a nice e21 looks. There is a red one in town thats dumped on 17s with some type of plastic or fiberglass bumpers and all blacked out. It looks super nice. I've never driven one so I don't know about them being shitty cars.

                      Simply put, they have the worst suspension just about ever put on a car.

                        Cars with blown shocks don't count! If they did then I think a BMW with no wheels would be the worst handling of all time

                          Is it not fixable with good shocks, springs, and bushings or is it just a bad design?

                            Bad design. It is improveable, but not completely fixed.

                              Anyone notice the dash shell is that of an E30? Regular e21's had ugly fucking dashboards.

                                i drove an e21, and it sucked.


                                btw- it needs a rear lip spoiler.
