    Thanks guys.

    The car has 356,000kms as of this morning, and yes those are the original seats.

    The suspension consists of Ground Control coilovers (375lb/475lb) with Koni SAs in the front, Boges in the rear. I've argued that this setup (stock rears) works incredibly well, and I guess I finally proved it at the auto-x. The wheels are 15x7 ET20, the tires are 225/50/15.

    And yes, it was quite entertaining to watch guys back their race cars back onto their trailers and yours truly setting up for the next run. ;)

          Sure thing nomsg, there will be another E30 meet at the end of Septemer or early October, final gathering. I'll post it up on maX at least 2 weeks prior.

          And chucko, yeah! It does stand for Jamaica. My parents were born there, I'm first generation Canadian. Not too many people get it, nice to see someone on R3V caught on.

            Yeah, growing up I spent a lot of time around Jamaican culture and music. I've never seen that plate before though, it's really cool. Car looks great too!

              Cool... my buddy, who is also first gen, moved to Kingston about a year ago to experience life in the motherland. I'm hoping to visit him next year.

                  Another reason that goes to show how you've gotta fix the nut behind the wheel before you start fixin the bolts on the car.

                  Good work man. Very clean ride. :envy

                      You have it wrong. The car has to be in tip-top shape, doesn't mean it has to be modified. But you are right about the driver, it's 95% driver, 5% car.

                          I bring nothing to the table.

                          Other than my parents are from JA too.

                          Sold it.
