Cleaned the mass air sensor and did re-charge of the K&N, all good!!
Runs better, even the AC runs a bit better at idol, not perfect but better.
Any recommendations on the AC?... $20 says someone posts "get rid of it"
Basically if I have it in 1st the engine wants to die unless I give a bit more gas.
Oil up the compressor or have mech/tech check the compressor?

you could sell your old wheels quickly for $500, they are pretty popular

Thanks, I went ahead and bought new rubber for now.

I have 1988 M3 Suspension on 1987 E30 Body.
Currently I have: (My Ride)

OEM 16x8 Style 5 wheels with 215/45R16 Falken AZENIS RT615K

Looking at 17" Style 5 or other type wheels(light), tire selections are greater and possibility of BBK in the future.

I have spacers on the car, not sure of the size.
Fenders are rolled.

What are my wheels worth $$ I have one spare never used, has rubber on it. 16 x 8

Guy wants $950 for same basketweaves 17" x 8
FB

looks like 215 40 17 front and 205 40 17 rear
no name brand tires, so pointless for what I want.

Love to year thoughts
Worried about fitment.
I am leaning toward just new tires, and move on to other things in the engine bay.

Mostly auto-cross, but would like to get back to the track, thus the braking need.

Had some engine issues today, would not stay started at idol. So mech at event discounted the mass air flow plug. Fixed the issue. So bad wiring or the sensor itself. Clean it or just buy new? S50 engine with tuner chip.

Today used some 20w-50, plus Lucas oil additive...
Helped ticking sound.

Also center vents, bahm!
Fixed that.

I bet next to shifter, after hot day of Autocross, only 10 of us ran... We got 18-19 runs.

The circuit breaker looks kind of like an e30 fog light switch and it is typically either next to the window button on the center console or up where the defogger and hazard buttons are.

Window update, its the circuit breaker. I was working on some other elec items out of the car and heard it click. Any idea where that unit is? Left foot well or right?

Nice car! 24v ftw

Thank you, nice minion!

Great, on way home my windows stopped working. Checked fuse 17... Fixed for 5 seconds, now nothing.
Help!! How to find this circuit breaker.

Love seeing another e30 at the Bahn! Are you local to chicago? Any plans on running blackhawk farms this coming tuesday?

I am not. Autocross mostly. Boomers, Schamburg on Sat, then going to TireRack (IN) on Sunday.

Was trying to look for another event at Autobahn.
