Doing the SR is the best bang for buck, I challenge anyone to make more power easier/cheaper/more reliable with an M20. Great motor, too many weak links to make solid power past 400 IMO, rockers being weak link number one, and it's all expensive/down hill from there. Troll E30 tech for the really forced induction M20 gangsta's :)

I'm getting ready to do the LS6 thang though ;)

damn cant believe i missed this. and a local. where do u stay by?

[ill roller]

Yeah, the name doesn't ring a bell, and I haven't seen any 20valve rollas at events, but who knows.

[bataangpinoy]

he goes back and forth between chi town and upstate ny. he's a good driver, you probably have ssen him or his car running around.

[ill roller]

Not that I can think of, is he in the midwest?

[bataangpinoy]

do you happen to know a driver by the name of mike tung?
he had a red sr hatch that had a crumpled rear end because of a run in with a wall last season.. he has a 20v gt-s coupe now.

With my old car getting parted out, and my new car getting built, I'm running out of room to work, haha.



Not knowing ahead of time that the carpet on these cars was designed my the devil and wrapped around every single part under the dash, I quickly got frustrated... Since it was blue and in crappy condition anyways I grabbed the box cutter and started ripping it to pieces and just left the piece under the dash on the trans tunnel.



I thought I had found a 100% rust free chassis, but considering its an e30 in IL I wasn't too surprised when I found this under the carpet...





Oh well, luckily I had already planned on bringing it to the body shop to clean up and paint the interior soon anyways.

Off to the shop tomorrow... Updates within the week.

damn. i like what i see here.

that SR.. big turbo plans?

Not anytime soon... I'm only going to be running 195s in the rear, so I think if/when I swap turbos the S15 T28 turbo will be more than good enough.

Oh, you mentioned something about a roll bar/cage, I was just curious what you were going to do for this. Custom fab'd or a bolt in? I just tried to put an Auto Power bar in my cabrio and realized it won't fit :(

Yeah, I read that the autopower wouldn't fit the convertible, so I'm doing a full custom weld in 6 point.
