One of my favorite E30s

very nice. how much was it to have your coolant channels welded? the shop i'm using right now is asking $30 per weld, and I have nothing to compare if this is expensive or not.

I paid just for the filler rod for the welding... but between the resurfacing and straightening after the fact I have a few hundred into the process.

Eric, Check out this picture of my car... Remind you of anything?

Hmmm....maybe? lol

With centercaps on and a regular iS rear lip spoiler, and they are virtually identical. BTW-I bought a new set of door handles, and painted the old set body color as you did. As of now I prefer the black handles, but I still have the other set I can swap on if I change my mind.

Isaac-

Car looks superb as always. As you already know-and others can see-your car was the inspiration for what I did to mine. I honestly didn't mean to 'copy' it, but you just so happened to already have everything that I wanted to do to mine.

Of course, your motor setup is just slightly more involved and powerful than mine! ;)

It'a amazing how similar the condition our cars were both in before the work started...very similar.

looks great-- really turned into a very nice looking car.

wow that "old' turbo looks familiar.

How is your turbo car working? I havent driven mine in about 2 months because of the work ive been doing to it and blowing up my trans. It is killing me..

How much did you paint your car for? I need to repaint mine soon.

I spent about 600 to do the complete paint job... but I paid zero (myself and a friend did everything) for labor.

How are those tires holding up with that power? Would you go up in size?

I get lots of wheel spin in 2nd gear in the dry rolling into the throttle... if that gives you any idea. I plan to dial out some rear camber to hopefully gain some more traction.
