R3V needs a group buy for a billet M30 block.

Very nice thusly.

Progress is still being made! Just very slowly.

My friends dad was going to give me his crashed ‘98 z3 with 65k on it but I couldn’t find a place to store and work on it in time. I wanted to pull the driveline for this slow boy because as much as I like this stupid little m10 I would also like a little more oomf. I’m kinda thinking about an m50 because it’d be the easiest to get through BAR. I have lots of time to think about power upgrades. Gotta do the suspension stuff first anyways. Waiting to pay off some stuff before I can buy the last suspension bits I need and then the rebuild will begin. I’ll post the spec list when that happens.

Meanwhile all my money has been pouring into this:


Started renting studio space to build custom bike frames. It’s a small bay in a fabrication shop and there’s a mill and a lathe out on the main floor. More pics of that to come too

I’ve got a lathe in the basement that doesn’t work and I want to make something...

Edit: Realized that previous wording isn’t super clear lol. It just needs some fiddling to get working again

nice

you'll want some more beef around those sway bar tabs though probs

edit: shortened too?

Yeah after looking at it more I'm gonna do another pass on the sides. Its 1/8" thick so its got some beef but I'll be running a vert bar also. I shortened these by 1.25" iirc. Don't wanna go tooo much lower than h&r sports would put it.

Oh hell yeah, love this. The difference in steering feel & handling with the E30 M3 style sway-bar tabs is nuts - by far one of the best mods I've done to my under-powered 318.

Yea! I'm looking forward to it. I was looking for info about placement for the mounts and saw a post you made about how much you preferred the switch to m3 style mount and it got me super stoked to weld these on.
