      Wow alot of questions ok here we go.

      Dorifto evo - i have blistiens with ie3's That guys setup in my opinion is way to soft of spring rates. Eibach springs suck ass. Id love to upgrade to konis sometime soon though.

      Stroked six - Hit me up on aim i have high rez available. About 30 shots.

      Bimmertoad - If your a beginner Put w.e. you can find out back. Doesnt matter. Put good grip tires in front. I usally run either a azenis 195 or a hankoook rs2. I now have knew rims so you see me running 225's rs2's :) Im used to getting the ass out and i love the high speed stuff so the non grip tires in the rear arent always good. I usally run a falken zeix 195 or 205 outback. A new or fairly used pair should last you more than 1 event depending on the track surface. The 420 treadwear helps out alot on that. The zeix's are also a little bit gripper then the used all season w.e. tires you can find. With 2 pairs to burn you should be ok.

      Vedubin 1 - all the miami drift guys went. The e30 guys arent usally into that kindda thing. I will next time around though. Check out a site i started with a couple of friends way back in the day for more info. www.sfldrifters.com

      e30 pilot - i dunno if that pic is full lock but damn close to it. I hit full opp in top of 2nd many times. Now i need to get those gc adjustable tie rods and ill kick out even more angle. But first i gotta do my z3 rack swap :)

      I think thats it! Anymore questions or comments are welcomed!

              Thank you man, Im just about down for about any motorsports event. I love it all!

              Please post anything that you see that would fit this catagory. I always have my camera on hand.


              On a side note, we really need to get the miami crew together and make like some mothly meets. Im always down to see or hear of something new. We started Autobahn Touring back in the day at Tropical Park and as of today its the largest meet of VWs in NA on a weekly basis. At anytime there is 50+ cars that meet there on any given Thrusday. I have been out of the VW scene for many years and most of the guys that are there today I have not a clue who they are. But it would be cool to do something like that. We started with only 5 cars.

              this was my old VW. Turbo 3.0vr6 with a T67 turbo. Made 624whp and 582lb/ft tq. It was supid fast but way to much money to keep it running. So now I got my E30 project.

              Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs!

                    Thanks for the complements guys. Its nice to see people liking e30's that aren't all about show. Asthetics to me come second after performance. That's why my e30 is all ugly and spray painted. W.e. Thanks guys.

                      looks like fun. What tire combo do you use? Decent up front, crappy all season out back? How long do you get out of a set of rears? I'm trying out a drifting event in Oct. and am curious about the tire set up
                      Use brand new all-seasons all around. Less chance of any snap oversteer. Rotate halfway through the event. If it's your first one, you won't even go through one set of tires. Sumimotos smoke real well and burn very predictably. The best part is heat-flashing the tires. Smoke em up real nice and hot. Then douse the tire in ice-cold water. Bam, the tire will last FOREVER! You can practice for days on heat-flashed tires.

                      All-seasons smoke easier than performance tires too.

                      There is something that bothers me though. We always use our stock 14s to slide on. How about we find something other than stock wheels to slide around on? Like.....15s or 16s...haha. Tires are pretty much the same price, maybe +$4 for every inch larger..
