    New here, just picked up my first European Car

    What's up guys. I've been around cars for a bit and have always wanted an e30, this one came up for cheap "not running" so I went ahead and picked it up.




    And of course within a week of ownership it hit the track to go drifting, then autocross with my father the next day. Feels like a great car so far.



    The car came with some H&R springs, OE plus struts, XXR 15x8 +20 wheels, little bit peppier of an exhaust, fresh steering rack although it's still the old e30 rack and not an upgraded e36 which I may do in the future, and the i motor swap even though it is technically a 325e. I still need to swap the gauge cluster since it is the e cluster and it seems the tach doesn't want to work on the i motor.


    My history thus far is mostly with a turbo miata, but as of late it has become an all track car and it really is no fun having to daily drive a truck all over the place, so this e30 works out great. Here's my other beater.






    Hopefully I can keep this car nice and mellow as a fun daily driver, but I do have temptations to go all out with it as well.

      I'll do what I can. The last project was more of a beater trackcar so it didn't have to be perfect in aesthetics. I just want this e30 to stay with a full interior, fun power delivery, fun handling, easy to daily drive. It should be a good car for that.
