Hell yeah! Thanks guys. I figured I'm living 2000 miles closer to the picnic so it would be a shame if I didn't make it to it.

What’s happening with the M20? Are you swapping back to a 2.5L?

Saving the 2.9L to be fixed/salvaged. Stock 2.5L in now to enjoy for a bit.

Throw some ITBs on the 2.5L! Enjoy it, fix the 2.9L, and go 2.9L ITB setup

Profit

Haha I like that way you think. That has crossed my mind more than once...

Great stance. I dropped my 87 E30 about 1.5" and love the way it looks. Also, love that it doesn't scrape on driveways and speedbumps! Cool car.

Thanks! I don't think I've ever had a problem with this scraping on anything.

Cool, welcome to r3v! And good luck with your e30.

Plop.

[Reichart12]

Drove it over 2000 miles the other week. No real problems. Now that its home with me time to get the remaining bumper trim on and adjusted. And Im already thinking of the next plans for it.

[Reichart12]

Summer plans:

• new (longer) O2 sensor.
• get real lip clips so no more zipties.
• fix the sunroof leak.
• new roundels.
• drive it hard.
• attend the e30 picnic
• new seats would be sweet but decisions are tough

[wworm]

what are you thinking for seats?

[Reichart12]

I would be happy with some houndstooth sport seats. I have houndstooth comforts that I have sufficiently worn out. Something more race styled with side bolster would work but then I would have to worry about getting correct sliders.

Send Kronus a message, I’m pretty sure he has a good looking set he is selling and I think he is heading to Boise soon.

Not sure what they look like exactly though. I’m glad you’re reconnected with the car

Edit: just noticed that you already did! Haha

[Reichart12]

I pm'd him for that Zender front valance but I really shouldn't buy any cosmetic parts (seats included) for awhile to save up some money again. It wasn't cheap getting this thing running again and out to Montana lol.
