Laguna seca sounds like a blast. LMK if you end up not going. The autox actually doesn't look too packed so far just looking at the current attendee listComment

are you looking at the SCCA day or the practice the day before? I prefer the practice days since Im not competing in anything and you get way more runs (8-12 usually) compared with 4Simon

Seriously, Im a BIG fan of JMP Auto. Talked to him about some of the plans I have for down the road stuff and look forward to working with them again in the future.
Only thing left to do is finish wiring up the Check Engine Light and hopefully it wont be on so I can go BAR my car
For now, Im going to go out and drive by carSimon

God that looks like loads of fun. Wise of you to know when to throw in the towel. Sometimes it's just not worth your time, especially when you start to get frustrated, I tend to break things when that happens.

We drove Angeles forest highway and then into little tujunga IIRC but I pulled out early (I always pull out early ).
For those curious, the way they got that last nut out was by supporting the motor, pulling the passenger side engine arm and then they had more room to rotate and actually get it out. I'm happySimon

Paolo check out the pics that Alex (iwantspeed) posted. There's a bunch of good pics there.
As far as this car goes, I've always wondered what the history was because there's zero VIN tags on the car, and the one that is there is from my buddy Corey's old iX. So, because of that I've decided to keep looking for mint alpine fenders and I think I'm finally getting them soon...
Just sold my old MOMO steering wheel and hub and sold a few other car parts and that means more play money aka car money. So excited to have more clean parts... Hopefully I'll have a few solid updates later this weekSimon

Coreys' iX - the thought of it kinda chokes me up a bit. I loved that car.
I checked out his pics, that M20 02 is pretty sick!!! Loving the front cowl area around the radiator, seems well done! Sounds like he could drive too! Curious if you know what diff he was running and trans?
Where are the new fenders coming from? Looking good! :DclutchCTRL!Move with a purpose.- 1991 325iX 4dr/5spd- 1976 2002 SlickTop/2.7i M20/G260- 2000 323i AT2016 Mazda CX3 Sport AWDComment

That cruise looked like very much fun. Can't wait to top off my new 2.7i, it'd make it a proper stampede of alpine e30s!Comment

Fenders are coming off a rear ended alpine ES. Original paint and no dents! Im a happy camper, just need to drive out, get em and swap em on. Goal is for the same SoCal Vintage show. clocks ticking!....
In other news, I finally bought a new headunit. Pioneer X8600BH. Got bluetooth in my car now! I dont plan on chatting much in my car, but its nice knowing I can have both hands free.
In other, other, news I havent washed my car and its finally dirty. I tried using the drought excuse to postpone it, but its really bad now haha
Hopefully the next pics will be with new fenders, polished paint and a big happy face. The urge for the 911 has subsided for now :)Simon
