      I vote rally- your car is already at the appropriate ride height.

      welcome to r3v... your car's ride height insult cherry has been popped. :)

          That was quick. This car is a virgin. Bone stock. So I think off roading it would be great.

            I'm not really sure why you'd want to do either! Why not set it up to handle on the street, or maybe road courses? There are better choices out there to make a rally-x car out of than an E30, though I'm sure you could make a pretty cool off roader out of an E30... I'm curious to see where this goes!

              You should fix your exhaust.

                  Rallying will blow your struts fast. It's dirt so you'll be doing a lot of drifting though, even with low power. It's fun, but it's probably the sport that gives the car the most beating. If you can deal with that (and the car is not your daily driver) I say give it a shot. I've seen rallycross a few times and always wanted to enter.

                  Drifting is another choice and it's cheaper too, slap some springs/shocks and go at it with some junkyard tires in the back.

                    I suggest the monster skid plate mod.

                      what color is that? Buy another car to thrash, that color is beautiful.

                          I vote Rally X, E30's were used as official rally cars in the past, I say tear it up!

                          And nice bicycle man! I have a Fuji mountain bike I'm currently working on.

                            very nice stock car.

                            i have a POS 86 325es, and i rally it at least twice a week. if where you live you have plenty of open space, then go ahead and rally that thing.

                            drifting is not.
