This little garage in FL

Another local happened to drop by with his street car. m50 ITB powered e30...

Thanks!

Couple pics from this weekend at the track. We were shaking down my buddies 9.5:1 m20b27 e30 and an e36 we de-tuned from a 400whp turbo m50 to a 220whp s50 so that it will fit in more race classes.

Oh, and yes I don’t really favor social media/ Facebook.

Really enjoying the shop pics, looks like a great E30 scene out in Florida!

Thanks for sharing!

Maybe cool to have a shop subsection.

I agree... That would be kinda cool. I post random photos in a 5 series thread -_-

5am Monday morning...bring it on!

[ForcedFirebird]

awesome stuff!

I hope my shop will be oozing out e30s one day lol

Took a long time to get to this point. When I first opened the shop at the smaller location, e30's were a dime a dozen, so owners were cheap and often friends, so money was even worse in those days lol. Not getting rich by any means, and the wife tells me she needs to get an e30 tattoo'd on her ass, so I pay more attention to her. o.0

OMG, I look forward to bringing my ‘89 down to you. I want that 190bhp

Come on down!


Couple more pics of a podium car, this time an e30. This was a FARA 500 at Homestead...

All these old pics bring back memories....





Honduh lol. This car just won the Sebring 300 Fara race in his class, 6th over all...








The bagged laguna engine bay...

Daily status open trumpet ITB m50 that was in my car once upon a time...




Balancing to +/- .1gm




5 cyl m20. This thing was holding 40psi like this lol. Happened at ~130mph on the banking at Daytona. Took the SD card from the rental driver's GoPro to see if he missed a shift. Couldn't believe what I saw on the oil gauge....

No man left behind. Started saving e36's too. This car was totaled, bent like a banana. Not much left, 2 of the kids helped me gut the remainder, it was a Sunday, Father's day....
