    Got to finally see this car in person last weekend. It looks great. Can't wait to see what the suspension setup does for it.

      Thanks Chris! Same goes for you.

      Thanks! It's going back to Arnie to get the trunk divot repaired sometime in the next week or so, then I'm planning to have the suspension on right after that's done.

      BTW - where did you get that front BMW license plate? pretty cool....
      Thank you! I have been looking for one for quite some time and actually ended up finding that one recently on eBay.

      Thanks again Robert. Installing the suspension and the Z3 shift lever are next on the list.

              Chris, get off the couch and put that suspension on already! I picked up a M50tu and an E36 Getrag today--looks like I'll be hanging onto the E30 after all. Turbo 24 valve time! :mrgreen:

                Nice! I have to sell some parts so I can afford the Turner kit. Buy my sunroof seal and premium radio for your car and I'll get right on it. ;)

                  If I had any plans to keep my sunroof or radio I'd look into it

                            Spectacular, Chris. The above photos required me to get a towel.

                              Here's a tip for everyone with Koni SA strut inserts: A General Motors lug nut is the correct size and thread pitch (14mm x 1.50). Looks pretty good if you ask me. HT to bimmerteck for the discovery while we were driving around trying to chase down a couple on Sunday, and thanks to Arnie for letting us use his air to assemble the struts.

                                Car looks great, Chris! Zach was raving about the ride you gave him--I'll have to come check it out.
