    Get one of these.

    Getting the lock out of the door is a bit of a PITA, but otherwise it's pretty easy.

      Congratulations on the e30. Take care of her and she will definitely take care of you. That motor is a proven motor. If you ever any any questions feel free to ask but don't be too afraid to look for the answer yourself. My first car was an 86 325 and I loved it. Little power but still put the biggest smile on my face every time I drove.

          My first car!

          Recently installed new clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder after my clutch would not disengage when pulling into my neighborhood. Kind of a pita... But I got it done. The car also has new control arms, control arm bushings, sway bar links, plus tie-rods that are not installed yet.

          My peanut butter colored E36 seats are awesome looking to me... But are not fit correctly because I haven't had time to get some mounting brackets!

          My plans are to hopefully find some decent coils to lower her a little bit after I find some basket weaves, or just some new tires that are actually the same size for my bottle caps.

          Did some reading on m10s and how a lot of owners had a time reving over 2-3. And I have the same problem.... Seemed like the solution was to adjust the valves which is out of my knowledge.

          I would be nice to be able to accelerate to higher speeds a little quicker and not have to stomp on the gas in 5th just to go past 60 mph.

          Here are some random pictures because I have nothing better to do.

                    Nice delphin, keep it clean!

                    BUT that's not even 1/32" of tread left... You will have very little traction stopping on dry ground, save for tires before you drive it more!

                      Delphin FTW!! But seriously, new tires asap and minimal driving untill then. Those tires will kill you and your car if you're not careful.

                            Many here are anticipating the following

                            1. You will announce plans to do coil-overs and some other minor mods
                            2. You will announce your plans to go with a turbo set up
                            3. You will drive you car into a lamp post or a ditch, post the story and pics claiming it clearly wasn't your fault (this is called r3v-ing you car), and then you will disappear from the forum.


                            Either way, welcome! I look forward to your "parting out totaled car" thread.

                              1. I have definitely don't have enough knowledge or money to turbo it.

                              2. I drive to much like a little bitch to go into a ditch or lamppost/ tree

                              3. I plan to stay on R3v for a while!!

                              But I have read that on some members rides threads haha so pretty true

                                Look at it this way. I threw my car into a ditch, Alternator died in the dark couldn't see.
                                Hit another car with it...... Oops Haha.
                                Drove it up the side of a on ramp covered in rocks. Idk how the hell the oil pan survived.
                                And I'm still here and the car did survive. Your going to do something stupid we all do it takes a real car guy to get up brush off the dirt flip your car the bird and drive it and love it haha.
