I got my baby back baby back baby back, ......... baby back build.
I just bought this car back from the gentlemen i sold it to on Thursday! He really wasn't getting the use he wanted out of it, and i was looking to get back into a missile car build again. It is exactly where I left off and he barely put 500 plus miles on it.
Super super stoked to reignite the build thread and keep this OG car coming along. First job will be a good steering rack swap and refreshing the suspension shortly/concurrently. Sept 7/8 deadline for Freedom Moves event at Englishtown!! Come see this baby in action!

I kind of figured you'd have messaged me after I posted here and in the 4 sale section. I'm so sorry Dan, I don't have your cell anymore. It went to a really good guy though who although he beat me up on price a little, was going to put the right money in to finish the project and the body work / interior.
I really miss it though. My e36 is a dog in comparison obviously, and that was one of the best tuned turbo cars I've ever had for a daily.
Total sellers regret =(

Blue header paint. When you start that thing up, it's going to smell like 1000 smurfs are on fire. ;(Leave a comment:

Dang, sorry to see you selling her. If it was April, and I had my bonus check, I'd be buying her, if only so that I could reunite her with Dan's old set of CSI 3-piece wheels I own that used to be on that car...Leave a comment:

diff is replaces with a 3.25 and nice powder coated rear cover along with brand new AKG red subframe bushings and has been running flawlessly. Also added a Stewart water pump just to upgrade. that being said.... this car is for sale. it defy needs body work and a better interior but has a wicked reliable 10psi m50 on megasquirt.
5000 obo if you put 3 or 4 more into this car its an easy 12g or more car, paricula3ly with the clean under hood setup that doesn't disrupt the OEM e30 front end look. I have a bunch of parts of course that could come with. if I don't get the 5g the first thing to come off will be the smoked cross eyes for another project I have. it has a GC street coil over kit and camber plates.

And here I was hoping I'd win that $448 million lottery and buy this back.
Until the next lottery...Leave a comment:

It's been a long time since last post, and car was running and driving great and is still running great, but I blew the diff up at the track a few weeks ago. I knew the small case 4.10 was gonna let go eventually, but on the starting line sure made me look uncool hahaha.
here's a quick clip of it pulling from 60-140. It will peg 150 and pull hard but sure is a bit squirmy over 135. def need some aero and all new bushings around. After I get it fixed I will put together a good compilation video and share around
