a few laps around PGP kart track at Pacific Raceways, in WA. Shot using a GoPro HD on the hood of my E30. A few notable cars that couldnt keep up with the E30: Honda NSX, Corvette Z06, E92 M3, E92 335i, and a turbo Miata that supposedly makes 270hp. :-D Granted there have been a few modifications made to the E30, but still!

Nice! What mods? pics?

Mods?

Handling related:
Shaved Toyo RA-1 tires
Racing Dynamics rims
Aluminum control arms
Delrin CAB's
H&R cup kit (too soft)
IE sway bars & end links
Delrin sway bar bushings
Delrin RTAB's
Delrin subframe bushings
Adjustable rear subframe (-2 deg. camber in rear, -2.5 front)
Sound damping removed from trunk (Along with spare, jack, etc)
Brembo rotors
Hawk HPS pads
SS coated brake lines


Motor/Trans related:
4.10 LSD with Delrin mount
AKG shifter & selector rod
Power steering delete
AC delete (complete system removal)
Delrin motor mounts
Delrin trans mounts
Sachs clutch
Jim C chip
K&N drop in filter

I know there is more, but I cant think of the rest. I'll post pics soon. The car is actually pretty light, and handles great but the cup kit is way to soft. Its funny though, the weight reduction (trunk, ac and ps delete) was probably the best upgrade I've made to the car (aside from the tires), as it benifits power, handling, and braking.

Because I'm a fool.


But no really, I'm saving for a gc coilover kit, my brain says: do want! But my bank account is like: nah!!!

[HarryPotter]

lol yeah I wasn't dissing you or anything just wondering! Didn't look too soft for having the cup kit on the car, surprisingly.

That is awesome, I wish someone would be allowed to do this at the VIR Kart track, just so I could see them go off at the down-hill off camber hairpin and die.

That track is too small, it's not suited for a car really.
