    Clean Alpine 87iS~Debut

    After doing projects on this car here and there, I finally decided to "debut" it to everyone!

    I bought this car last October after my MR2 Turbo got wrecked. I've always liked e30s and the perfect combo alpine/cardinal popped up on ebay no less!
    Had around 41k original on the odometer when I got it so you can see it's still pretty nice. I've done a good bit of maintenance on it as well as some modifications. I tried to keep the mods tasteful. Anyway, here are some photos I snapped today. Tell me what you think.













    Thanks for looking.;)

    Looks good. I like the wheels offset a lot, needs a drop.

      I'm on H&R race...:(
      Some of the angles make it look higher than it really is too.

          Nice looking car, and I'm sure you're proud of it, but snapping a pic of you getting wood looking at your car is something I could have lived without.

            You only see what you want to see...it's just my shirt bunched up, excentuated by a wide-angle lens.

              Nice! But the front could use alittle more of a drop.

                True. Guess I'd need go the ground control route. Roads are pretty crappy around here though. I'd be worried about oils pans and whatnot.

                Hows the ride on your lowtecs?

                  Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs!

                    I'd give them a weak 7 on a scale of 1-10 for stiffness.

                    And holy crap! I just seen the mileage on your car! :crazy:

                        Aa a bonus filling the tank will also double any Eta's resale value .

                          I put on 88+ rear cab bumper shocks and I have the 90 adjustable bumper shocks to put on. I've just been to lazy to take off my bumper. :D
