word. Nice.
Anything special to mounting Euros to the early E30's?
I have some but haven't asked anyone how they mount.

Sounds cool. I said the same thing about my last car. My attention spam is too short though. I'd love to keep my E30 forever. I've already spent twice its worth and i've owned it for 5 months now. I'm sure this sounds familiar for you though.

Do you guys have your own Knoxville CCA chapter?

Yeah, that sounds VERY familiar! Just this minute I'm buying a new fuel pump because mine (which had been replaced, along with the intank pump a few years ago) is getting a little noisy and I'm scared of it.

We do have our own chapter in Knoxville. http://www.smokymtnbmwcca.org/
A bunch of good guys. I never have time to make it to anything anymore though. Between school, work, and a girlfriend I can't do anything.

I'd be down meeting up for a photo shoot!

Car is looking good Chris You need to get it back out on a drive with us again sometime:mrgreen:

Yeah yeah yeah.. I should have more time this semester, and the car is back in shape to run the dragon (or whatever we're running that's less busy)! I'll be out there next run, hopefully. I need to see/feel the setup with the supercharger!

Nothing special at all. All you need is the mounting brackets for the front and rear. There are two for the front and two for the rear that mount where the shocks go. The sides just mount with a simple screw. Put those things on STAT. You'll love em. Weight savings too ;)

what size tires are you running? they look a bit oversized

other than that .............thats a fine example of an early model e30

They are 225/50. I like the look of the 225. My third set of them on these wheels. I've been slowly progressing to less sticky tires though, so before I know it I'll be on 215 all seasons probably. I need to get back into the whole non-interstate driving thing.

I'd be down for a photo shoot too bro.

I'll shoot you PM if I roll out that way in a couple weeks. Looks like the deal might fall through though on the wheels :(

That sucks. Just don't get any ideas about replacing mine with blocks ;)

:giggle:

You better worry about your bumpers before you worry about those rimz.

[SchnellerVert]

Why can't I find a clean Delphin car....very nice and subtle. Any engine mods or strictly cosmetic and suspension?

Yeah, they only require one wrench and 4 bolts per bumper :p

It's pretty much purely cosmetic and suspension, but I've had everything but the block out of the engine compartment. I've rebuilt the head and have a chip in it. Otherwise, its pretty much as it came to me. I've also spent some time cleaning it up, including new reservoirs and the such. It really is hard for me to think of a part that hasn't been replaced on the car, and there is only a handful of them.


Thanks again guys!
