I'm so saving up for one of those skid plates now! I wanted to see how much those things can take, but now I know. Sorry about your lose bro, but once you're up and running thats all that matters. Good luck on the new build,

[carguy101]

Just a small update:

So this Saturday the motor/tranny/subframes/suspension are going to be dropped from the blue e30, and the blue e30 will be sent off the pick-n-pull or a friend may come get it. So far I've stripped the interior minus the driver's seat and floor carpets.

In the engine bay I've removed the peerless skid plate. My neighbor is going to plasma cut the frame mounts and re-weld them to the frame of the red e30. I've removed all the air intake shiz, disconnected the throttle cables, pulled out the ECU from the interior to the engine bay, removed the power steering pump, all cooling hoses and radiator. A whole bunch of other misc. stuff, still got a few more things I need to take care of before this Saturday. I've also officially decided to put up all my euro stuff for sale, I've already sold my euro grille.

On to the pictures:







Oh and here's some more pictures of it in my driveway:







Thank God for my peerless skid plate! I will never let another skid plate protect my skid plate, I don't care what you guys think about Peerless, he makes GOOD SHIT! He shouldn't have did what he did, but that was long ago so we must forgive him. Otherwise, you're missing out on a MO'FUGGIN BAD ASS SKID PLATE.

Thanks to this beast, I have a good motor to put in my new car, and I can still use the skid plate again.



















^Award for ugliest welds goes to Ryan G's welder which was supposed to feed itself but it was broken so we had to hand-feed it LOL. Whatever though, obviously the welds worked!

[skatingzooyork]

Wow dude that really sucks!!! But the cars replaceable, people aren't! (as others have said)

[dnova89]

Lol

[E30_fiend]

I agree, but in your opinion what's the min/max height limits with, say, 16s

all this carnage just went down and you quote from the first page??

[beenjamin]

That suspension is FTW. With such a serious suspension setup you should keep the agressive look and lift 'er a little, I'd say.

[DREWHALL]

That sucks, was a nice car. Hopefully you can salvage most of that stuff.

[FredK]

Sorry to see your hard work destroyed like that! Good to hear your OK.

[freeride53]

BTDT. Mine was a 242 Volvo sideways into a tree with the right front of the car. About 60mph. Spun the car around so fast that the right rear hit the same tree on the other side and blew out the rear window. All 3 of us walked away but that crash used to wake me up at night thinking of what could have been.

Glad your in one piece.

John

oh man...that's brutal. 242? those are getting so rare these days. how long ago was that? My dream car is a 242, b230FT 16v, grp a style.
