i'm fairly new to e30's, here's the bronzit nightmare in my driveway
pardon the horrible cell pictures

and the blue wiring. i was determined to have working fogs, which wasn't happening with whatever it decided was wrong one day...

independent fogs:

and the shitty, quick seat recovering

a shot from my most recent endeavor. intake gaskets. did bmw design these with enough hoses?

boredom at 2:30am results in this:

and finally, the day i got to know the car a wee bit better last summer after i found out the hard way about the autotragic design flaw at 3am in the middle of nowhere


proceed with bashing. but first think, it's alot better than my brother's recent purchase, a $300 civic

cant see them in the pic, but it's got 3800 sfi turbo badges on the sides of that awesome scoop. those add like 300hp

more pics of the e30 to come soon

ROFL at the "power bulge" on the civic

what makes it better is that it's stock, aside from the sawed off exhaust, and broken almost everything. it came disassembled, with *most* parts included.
he took me for a spin in it, without a passenger seat, and something fell off of it while going 90mph. still havent figured out what fell off yet

apparently nothing important. ;)

I think you're a few steps above your brother. looks good.

it looks good until you get up close. needs a little bit of body work, and new roundels all around, except one wheel, which has a brand new looking roundel.
my bro was bragging about how his civic would take the e30 a couple nights ago. maybe for about 10ft off the line.
although with as moody as this car is, i'd get my ass handed to me by a civic, then try again 5 minutes later and wonder where the civic dissapeared to back there. there's times when i can mash it to the floor and it feels like i'm driving a subaru loyale, then the next time i stomp it around a corner into traffic, expecting it to behave the same way, and i end up sideways, then it chirps 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, and on occasion, 3rd to 4th.
it scared the shit outta me a few weeks ago getting onto US50 from a little back road, into traffic. it was a bit damp out, and it kicked out on the 1st to 2nd shift in front of 60mph traffic
can someone explain it's extreme mood swings, and explain to the car that it's stock, with over 200k, and shouldn't be able to do that?
