    The Official Useless E30 part thread

    I thought this would be fun. I was cleaning up my shop and realizing how useless some of the parts are to even keep around. "Only worth their weight in scrap" you could say. so throw out some of the parts you think are useless.

    Auto transmission
    Stock springs
    Stock swaybars
    Most 4dr parts lol



    And so forth

        6-button OBC, why? Just get a clock and your more than halfway there.

        Plastic screws that BMW is so fond of, why not use metal screws?

        Early 90's airbags. Because they will likely do more harm than good.

            I have a spare transmission support bracket. Paperweight worthy.

                  DB front valences, toolkit holders without tools, cracked taillights, stock swaybars (again), rusty springs, original rear shock mounts, an old timing chain and gears (M42), a dented Taurus side skirt. I'm sure I have more...

                          I also still have the pinion gear from my buddy's '01 mustang and all the races and bearings. The pinion gear was once tested to mash potatoes after it was sterilized. Did wonders!

                          Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
                          Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
                          Lobsterbacks attack the town again
                          Wrap all my things in aluminum
                          Beams of darkness streak across the sky
                          Pink rays from the ancient satellite
                          Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
                          Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.
