    Hit bump, car steers itself towards ditch.

    Or the far scarier effect of bump steer, which is more like "body roll steer." I am not sure if rack and pinion BMWs are subjected to this as they are a forward-rack design, but cars with the rack behind the control arms can tend to steer themselves as a result of body roll--you turn left, car rolls to the right, as a result of bump steer winds up steering itself more left. It is scary and much more prevalent at high speeds. Being a forward-rack design e30s may have the opposite effect of just steering less, which is much more manageable.

    my my room ate came across this is in another thread, he saw the notched subframe and said to me "have you ever seen and e30 with a notched subframe???" I quick ran over and it was exactly what i thought...

    shame it had a rare 333i intake mani...

    wonder how he wrecked it? probs drinking tab while driving... hit a bump, bump steer happened and the car ended its own life... couldn't live anymore without an OEM gas cap...

    i was wondering why we havent heard from him... someone should get the story from him

    The car looks really good,

    I think it looked better with the H1/H4 lights you had on earlier, it matches up with the period the car came out. For some reason also looks better.
