    Replace that intake boot with new if you can. A used one may not have much life left.
    Good luck with the car. They're a lot of fun, but many inexpensive e30s require a ton of "catch up" maintenance to reach a certain level of fun and reliable.

    Need help anyone that reads this.
    Have an idle of 1000 rpms. When in drive the rpms will drop to around 700, and eventually the brake pedal will get soft. I have sprayed and sprayed carb cleaner and now I'm out. Still can't find a leak. Any insight on this problem? And does anyone have a vacuum diagram?
    What interior part's you need? I got some for sale

    Ok so I reinstalled the cluster and now I have a inspection light on. Did the SI board go bad in a day?

    After I cleaned the iac, it still idles around 950-1000 rpms but it drives great besides the brakes that I have to double pump every other time. Ordered a rubber boot for the throttle body cause mine is developing cracks.

    But took for a test drive and noticed a vibration develop, looked out the window and the spacer on the front came loose on the wheel. So had to wait for my dad to get there with tools to tighten it back up. This is why I need wheels without spacers...

    Anyone else have a problem with only half the cluster lighting up?
    I have changed it to an led and it still only works on one side. Would I need a cluster. Everything else works besides the bulb that blew in the turn signal.

    It doesn't go all the way through. I pulled it a hair and sprayed with choke cleaner and it never idled up. But I can't post a wanted ad till after 10 posts. So it's on the list of stuff I need.

    This piece right?
    I cleaned it and reinstalled but had to jb weld the metal piece that goes into the throttle body. So I can't start it up for 24 hours.

    I had a dirty iac give me some headaches even after replacing every vacuum line. I cleaned it with brake clean and haven't had any problems since then. Might be worth checking out

    started a topic The street shark e30

    The street shark e30

    Well Sunday I bought a e30 325i for $1500
    Has a high idle at 1000 rpms and no brake pedal in drive. But has a firm pedal in park. So I'm gonna start looking for a vacuum leak. Needs a wiper motor and 2 tires.
    Needs interior parts, like a lot of them. And exterior trim along with a new exhaust.
    I will post pics later when I can.
