      yea man you gotta keep it for auto-xing so that you can actually put the car to USE, and drive it what it was made for

          Looks nice. Do they make any difference (the springs)?

          Hope you had the rear on jack stands when you were working on it.

                lol man the whole block must have heard me cussing at that thing!

                *edit* wow i seem like a douche with some of my responses...don't know what was going on with me 4 yrs ago.

                hey, actually i did have it up on jack stands all around

                about the springs..what difference do you speak of? i had stock springs on there..and the difference is HUGE..less teeth shattering when hitting bumps and they soak em up more, however they are more bouncy though

                lol it is not PINK!! lol im gonna be forced to take that pic down haha

                its a red shirt..the lighting was crappy, i mean you can clearly see that cause the car looks like it has yellow spots in the paint

                  Fixing the profile gasket. Oh God, that was some nasty language.

                    Skid plates? Didn't know they existed, mind telling us where or how you procured such an item?

                      I think Dave Length has a writeup on installing one in his E30 cabrio.
