Finally got me a e30 vert, say hello to Nina

[ZM Blue Devil]

Im getting ready for 2k mile road trip in her, lets see how she does with the gas on the trip.


Trunk installed, will install the spoiler and the badge/roundel tonight...

Not sure, but I know that i have gone 178 with a third of a tank left as of ten minutes ago.

29 is a misreading due to the upgrades. I run the same setup and avererage 220 miles to a tank. I have a 4.10, but from what i have read, there is a glitch in the readings. May want to go to Mark D's website.

Hmm - I average about the same, but I have a 3.73 w/a custom chip (not sure who made it, but it's set up for the AFM and injectors for use in a stroker) I would think with bigger injectors and AFM I should be getting better mileage, even with a heavy foot.

WTF? I have a 2.7 stroker with M30 AFM and 19# Design III injectors, and I'm barely getting 20 MPG - granted I drive with my foot on the floor, but still...

120 miles with 90 miles being highway. Im running 19lb injectors with 91 octane Mark D, chip, I also have a KN drop in filter. I had the hard top on the car as well. I was not running AC...

Traffic was flowing so I locked the cruise on at 79 and would at times kick up 85-90 to pass slower traffic.

She averaged 29+ miles per gallon.

great build thread! DONT sell it

Touring>Vert

Sell it so we can finally see this damn touring you're picking up. I wanna see a build thread all over again! Transformations are awesome, especially since you do them in less than 3 months!

[delatlanta1281]

Inspiring. You may have talked me into a vert.

Latest Mod - Trunk

Had this piece in the garage for a while. It would not fit into the Vert trunk since the layout is a bit different with the battery being up front.

Had some particle wood laying around so I made a frame and used the extra floor mat to cover so it matched.


Here is the triangle, first aid kit with storage box.




Here is the area it will go in(haven't gotten around to clean the trunk yet.:()




Here is what it looked like without the box...




Test fit with the box built.




The spare stained trunk mat...I was just getting ready to throw out because of the stain... Had enough clean material to use to cover the box.




The final product.

Kamei 3 piece is up for sale, going with something more classic for Nina(I put the spoiler up for sale). The windsplitters will go on the touring(I think...)

Here is an update pic...

Nunz and I were just talking about your exhaust... His car is still at the mechanics. Should have it back this week. You at home or back in Philly?

I never had a spoiler on her. You are close, very close... Should have pics by end of the week.
