    New e30 owner Raleigh NC

    Hello my name is Jason and I need help, I'm addicted to my e30.

    I have owned numerous very well sorted cars but, even with a blown suspension the e30 takes the cake. I just feel so connected to the road while I'm driving. Well on with the pics





    Oh where to begin

    87 325e that I already removed 205.2lbs from.

    Plans in order that they will be completed
    -Remove all tar (30lbs)
    -Full tune up and TM brake package, Falken rt615
    -Lexan and gut rear doors, sunfoof (hopefully 100lbs)
    -Remove ac and ps (60lbs)
    -Suspension and sways
    -Corbeau seat and Kirk rollbar
    -Probably last will be skinning the hood and trunk

    Can't wait. My friends keep telling me to shut up about the 205lbs I've already removed. :)

    Leave the AC, you live in the south, in an oven like box such as the e30, you're gonna kick yourself every time you get in it in the summer. Same with power steering, unless your system leaks more than mine does, you're not going to save much wight to make a difference. Especially if you ever plan to auto-x the car. you're going to want that.


    Otherwise, cool.

        Remove all of the weight that you want, but what you really need is more motor.

        Greetings from Charlotte.

            All trunk and interior minus the tar and had a catback installed.

            The damn carpet with the foam was 42lbs!

            As for the motor, yeah its weak but I'm trying to do this car on the cheap.

            And the AC, this car will not be a DD until the ranger dies...........
