    I'm back

    Well it's been about four years since I left the E30 game, for the past year or so I've been looking for another one. I lucked out last week and spotted a 92 325ic automatic for $800. The interior and top are in decent shape, the body.... You can tell is 17 years old lol. But it's not too big of a deal. The reason for it being $800 is the ever dreaded snapped timing belt. Luckily I have a head that was rebuilt and stuck on the shelf a few years back. Ported and polished 3 angle valve job the whole 9. So next weekend I will be putting that on just to get it running. Immediate plans are suspension and wheels. I need to find a good article on electric tops because of course this one doesn't work. I'm out of school and have a good job now so I can mod this thing out pretty quick I hope. If I keep the M20 going to do a 5 speed swap and turbo, if not going to look @ M30 or S50 options. Here's the cabrio...

    Since I left I built a 2000 Jeep Wrangler. It was sitting on 35's 4" short arm susp lift and 1 " body lift with a 5.2 V8 from a Grand. Right now it's taking on Long Arms 8" springs and Dana 60's to sit on 38" tires. I'm looking forward to catching up with some old friends on here and meeting new ones. Good to be back to E30's and R3V. Here's a pic of the Jeep taking engine.

    Nice deal on the vert, looks to have tons of potential! That jeep is kickass.

        Wow

        I also saw a 91 318ic for $1500 with a blow engine.

        Question. I know you replace these things every 50k-60k

        What if the car has minimal use like 10k in 9 years?

        As a general rule would you replace the belt every 5 years if the car is driven under 50-60k?

        I say hell yes because its not worth getting a new engine.

        Does anyone have some trailer queen?

        Thanks
