    So I tried to lube up the caliper pins on my rear hoping that was the sole reason to my scraping new brake pads and rotors. But to no avail, looks like I need to rebuild those sticky fckers.


    Also while under there I took a look at my diff and looks like is have a 3.25 LSD :) Either that or its just a diff cover.

      Thought Id update this thread. Since the last time I posted Ive put in H&R races front and rear.

      New almost mint dash and also black carpet. Not the best pic but the only one I really have lately;

      EDIT: I also got these bottlecaps for free. Well the guy left them outside for whoever to pick up and put a 20 in between the tires LOL.

      Have a set of smileys waiting to be fixed and mounted as well.

          -HIDs for the low beams
          -swapped out front bumper and valance
          -put brackets on the sagging rear bumper.
          -quik trim refresh for the grilles.


          Dont have pics for it all but do have some after a quick wash;



          I noticed you took the diving board bumpers of, when you installed the newer plastic bumpers did you have to weld anything or do any serious modifcations? I have like the same car that why I was asking thanks!

            Front bumper and valance are direct bolt ons, the only thing you need to do is cut off the tow hooks. Dont forget to get the side brackets for the bumper to have it mount up straight.

              Thought I'd update the thread a bit. The PB's will soon come off in favor of euro bumpers :) but here is my hoopdie as of right now



              Also bought a set of leather and cloth door cards which needs a little scrubbing but makes the interior look more interesting



              edit: notice the beautiful OEM clolor on the doors :\ I wish my car was original, it was a cosmoblau car that was repainted to handicapblau

                              Thanks guys

                              Unfortunately this past Sunday I poped a tire, how ironic I guess. I have some good news though, my brother and I went to Lodi to pick up a sweet AW late model yesterday so now there's a nice collection of e30s sitting pretty at the house lol.

                              Plans as of now

                              - pick up the headlight wipers
                              - new tires
                              - swap interiors
