    So, I've finally got things back together.
    I've done the following since pulling my e30 out of storage:
    - drained 7 year old fuel, changed fuel filter, added fuel cleaner, fresh fuel
    - flushed / filled brake fluid
    - new stainless steel flex lines (just at the 4 corners, not the 2 above the tank)
    - new rear brake rotors and pads
    - timing belt, tensioner, water pump, belts, hoses
    - coolant flush and fill

    I've been driving it around the last few days and all seems OK. The tires actually aren't flat spotted like I thought. (They should still be changed, I'll get to that soon enough)

    I need to get some lube to all the urethane suspension bushings as I can hear them creaking away at each bump.

    I've forgotten how much fun the E30 chassis is to drive. Time to put some miles on it.
    Cheers
