Something new to play with...

[iXBeater]

So my buddy Nat and I are still putting our little business together. Our web site is still in development and we're just turning all the lights on (literally and figuratively). At least we have our priorities in order...





All the white will go to black shortly (wheels, etc.)

















The shop:

Nice shop and car. What series are you going to run the 02 in? Is there only one lift?

[Hick]

What are the hood hinges from?

Looks like fun!

[speedhop]

what is the deal with that tapped oil containers??

Looks like a very sweet garage you have there!

[DuMa]

your hood is sacrilege!

The '02 is a project that probably won't happen now. I think we're going to sell it to raise funds for the business. It already has the roll cage, fiberglass panels, etc. an interesting start on suspension, etc., but the E30 is about as much as we're going to be able to handle.

One lift is all for now - it is a small shop, and mainly we're going to focus on selling parts, accessories and upgrades while doing some local enthusiast stuff at the shop and basic service to keep the doors open.

What are the hood hinges from?

They were reversed to save weight - big savings

what is the deal with that tapped oil containers??

Looks like a very sweet garage you have there!

Thanks - we're really having fun with it.

The containers under the hood are overflow in case of a boilover, etc.. They'll be switched to something more...official...shortly.

[Hick]

Okay, but what car are they from? Or are they something universal?

What group/class is the E30 being built for?

[BeirBrennerE30]

Nice... good start with a shop!

but why does your, what looks like a full out race car, have a spare tire?

and I hope thats not a fuel line running right next to the drivers seat... other than that looks good

The car is a 90 325is built to ITS specs for SCCA club. The trunk tar was left in to add weight in the rear (appx. 35 lbs) to help with balance, the spare tire is weighted also, for the same reason. The hood was hinged at the rear to take weight off of the front. The car is very well balanced. It has front and rear coilovers, with adjustable camber front and rear. Brake bias is adjustable front and rear. The oiling system is a 3 qt Accusump with a heat exchanger out front. RD sways. Burns custom headers with passenger side exit - very loud (this will change). To comply w/ rules, the motor is stock compression.

I'll have to check on the hinge setup.
