      what wheels are those? they look like the wide alpinas only offered in 5 lug, but then again i seem to remember an alpina-style wheel that looked similar

        I didn't go to the big show this year, but next year..... :twisted:

        I went in $2004, blew it up right there in the parking lot. Here's a link to the results. If you go to the GRM page you can see pics of some off the competitors, interesting stuff out there for under $2k. A Datsun that turns a 10 second quarter?

            Awesome, I was wondering who fielded the 13 second 318. Im mote30 on the grm forums. Great showing, the two e30s did better then the porsches entered!

                current stipulation on the SC kit - youd have to agree to removing power steering, a/c, fuel carbon filter breather, radiator fan, bending dip stick, and relocating the alt to the other side.

                i can definetly produce more of these. it was advised that i purchase a build/test e30 with everything stock under the hood to develop the kit. after that, it should work. would come out to cheap too like a few hundred for the kit minus the supercharger.

                i was surprised as to how many people came and stared and complimented. i just wasnt expecting it. wasnt expecting the honerable mention either

                  the rims are alpina replicas made by King. the offset is for the e21 so it looks pretty cool here

                        if you look in the picture, you can see on the front mounting bracket, there are two bolts which are adjustable in position and the bolt at the end thats a tensioner.

                          here is the outcome. Check the entire stats in this month's issue on store shelves now... not like theres anything else about my car in there, but the editor loves e30's so youll find something about 'em in one edition or another.

                            that's so weird. i was thinking of this car today for some reason, and you bumped the thread. anymore/bigger shots of the engine bay, it's super clean.

                              I love it...nuf sed.

                              Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
                              Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
                              Lobsterbacks attack the town again
                              Wrap all my things in aluminum
                              Beams of darkness streak across the sky
                              Pink rays from the ancient satellite
                              Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
                              Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.

                                no pics, sorry. right after the event, it went into a barn for storage.
                                on thanksgiving i took it out for a spin and ripped a belt off while pulling stupid stunts yet thats the last its seen of daylight.
