    Whoa, I tried to sign up to E30 Tech over a month ago and they still haven't approved my membership. I applied here like 5 seconds ago and I'm already a member. You guys win.

    Alright, so if you're literate, you could read my user name and decipher that my name is Tyler Estes. I'm what I like to call a "typical E30 wankster." I'm white, listen to a lot of rap, I'm in my 20's and live with my mommy, and I wear obnoxiously big and bright shoes. And I also have some stickers that say "illest" that are on my E30. I think they're absolutely dumb. Which was why I bought them. Seems legit.

    Alright, so my E30 is a 1985 325e. It's silver, bone stock, and on bottle caps. I've had it for maybe a month and a half. I bought off CL and it broke down in a city in traffic at night 10 minutes after I bought it. Because that's just what happens if you're me. So this what happned: I sold my known-working DD so I can get a janky old E30 off CL because I'm so smart and the inevitable happened. It sat at a bank for a few days after it broke down. Needed a new batter. Boom, threw one in that bitch. It also decided to let the revs fluctuate like crazy at idle. It totally looked like it was possessed. But I popped the hood and and an unplugged vacuum hose was staring me right in the face. Because they have eyes or something. So I plugged that in and it ran correctly. Then my starter died. I wanted an Alfa Romeo, but decided to use some logic, so I got an E30 instead. But with the rust and the issues that keep popping up and the rare 1-3-4-5 transmission, it looks like I have a German Alfa. So go me, I guess.



    Edit: I had the new starter installed and now my E30 works. AWWWWWW YEAH!

        Most of your drivability issues, not to mention your F to R weight balance, are caused by the lack of roundel on your hood.

              Go you for sure! Welcome to the penis party.

              I recommend purchasing 2nd gear as well as a new shift boot. I can help with the shift boot, not 2nd gear.

                            I know. But priorities. Been buying music gear and clothes lately. I'll probably get bored and buy a set this weekend.

                            I'll snap a few pictures and post them on here. Nothing better to do.

                            I'm glad somebody got that joke. Yeah, the shift boot looks like it could stand to be replaced. Also need to get a new seal for my sunroof. It was installed with the Get Your Pimpin' Blue Recaro All Wet option. Not a fan of that one.

                            You know me too well.

                            That made me spit tea all over my laptop. Because it's absolutely true.

                            I haven't even gotten around to doing anything to it yet. I friggin' wake up at 4:15 6 days a week for work and get home at like 4:30. So I never have the time or energy for a project car. I bought it because I didn't think "HURRRRRRRRRRRR DURRRRRRRRRRRRRR ya know, a 30 year old car is most likely going to end up a project car whether or not I want it to." I don't want it to. Actually, I'm gonna fix it up a little bit and sell it. No time or money. AFTER I HOON IT TO DEATH. But as far as you know, no I'm totally not gonna rally it at all.

                              Odd, with that 15 minute work schedule you should have plenty of time for wrenching. What do you do for a living?
