    Story:
    I purchased this e30 a few years back from an Audi dealership (someone traded it in). This car was actually made the same month and year that I was born so feel like there is some sort of destiny thing going on between the car and I. I bought it bone stock and have just been doing mods here and there but now I am really getting serious about dumping some money into it. The interior is in pretty rough shape and other than a few rust spots the car is pretty solid. I know its not the cleanest or the fastest e30 out there but I have a blast driving it and thats all that counts in my book. Please give me ideas/feedback/tips, all are appreciated!

      Triad area, specifically Kernersville. From the looks of things our verts have a lot in common.

        Get on NCE30 on FB if you haven't already. 700+ members strong and the next big event, O'f3st, is right down the road from you.

        Suggestions? Well, maybe some spacers, ~5-10mm in the back and some drophats when you change the shocks. This will help with your reverse rake.

        And, if you do or even plan on driving at night, id remove those candles they called sealed beam headlights. Hella H4 lenses are a great bolt-on and excellent quality.

          I actually have some fresh spring pads ordered for the rear that I hope will help with the rake. I actually don't use Facebook but I'd love some more info on the show coming up. I missed the vintage because of my work schedule (I manage a restaurant) but I'd love to come out and see some e30s in the area.

          As for the lights, what's your opinion on using e34 headlights? I pulled a pair from the junkyard and I'm just debating on whether or not to install them...

            Keep an eye out in the NC region here on R3v. One of use will post something if its going on in the area.

            I didn't think the E34 lights worked. If they work like the E30 ellips, you should be good and give good light output.
