motor is worthless to anyone looking for any power what so ever.
very costly to mod with minimal power gains even then.
only purest care about the motor but if you can swing it you can pull the motor and store it away till your ready to sell (that's what i did).
reliability was never the S14s strong suit either but properly maintained high mileage examples 200k+ are out there but are not the norm.
ive owned several and its fine at first but like most people you'll want more power.
the feeling of need for more power will never be more prevalent then when a 16 year old pulls next to you in his Honda and leaves you in the weeds.
but if your just buying the car to cruz around and enjoy a track day or two you cant go wrong with a stock e30 m3.
either way great deal and congrats m8

I fail to remember if this will be a weekend car, or a daily. But if its a weekender (like mine is the times I have a license), go balls out (within reason), or AS balls out as monies will permit while still keeping in the spirit of what ///M in 1986 intended. Its so fucking invigorating every time I drive the car and of course its not good as a daily, but it truly is the closest thing to drugs when I drive that car at 8-10/10ths through some canyons! As long as you give yourself some cool off time (weekdays) and some time to get back into a comfortable car for the week and avoid getting used to the power/handling of it, it truly is satisfying. I fall in love with my car every time I drive it BECAUSE I dont drive it all the time. And you dont get that annoying thing where you get used to the power quickly or start seeing all the disadvantages of driving it every day and through traffic. Just my .02. I think you can tell Im kinda in love with my car.... Mine even has 101 octane in it every time. Its driven just seldomly enough to not kill my wallet with filling the tank with 101 octane.Leave a comment:

Long story about the car sitting ,but about 10yrs ago he was diagnosed with cancer and wasn't expected to live,but he still is.hes had many people over the years ask him to buy the car,but was saving it for his son,...long story short, I guess it was my lucky turn in life,cause I got it
Been working on it all weekend.all brake calipers removed,cleaned,painted and fronts rebuilt..time to order rotors and pads..keeping it stock for now,I may want to time trial it with NASA,so brakes will stay stock...ish!
Can't wait till fuel pump gets here,I want to hear this bitch run.
I will be on vacation for 2weeks,so I won't have many updates.heading to PA,sooooo I may have to stop by VAC and see them bastards:DLeave a comment:
