    Well My current E30 is a peice of crap. My next one will be better condition, and thus I will take pride in doing any and all maintenance myself. But until then all work on this one will be done in the name of convenience. My next E30 is going to be a 1985-87 5-speed vert, I just dont have the money right now to go find one. But when I do That is what ill be getting.

      I fucked mine by looking for an E36 to swap the LS into.

      If I find one, I'll probably just part the E30 out or sell it cheap.

        I could shake it around and you'd think I was holding the heaviest maraca of all time.

                and I had an iced caramel mocha to finish off.

                  I put my ellipsoids in yesterday. No HID's yet because they are on back order. Also, I put in a 21mm cabrio sway bar with new bushings and end links. Also replaced the voltage regulator in the stupid valeo alternator. Big day!

                    Yesterday I measured the engine bay. Interesting random findings are that:

                    1. Turbo 5-cylinder Volvo engine would definitely fit.
                    2. Maserati Bi-Turbo 4-valve 2.8L twin-turbo V6 would fit, so long as you had custom high-mount turbo manifolds
                    3. Maserati 3200GT twin-turbo V8 would fit, again with high-mount manifolds

                    Of course, why you would want to fit these engines is beyond me, but might be handy for others to know? If they're legally retarded that is...

                            Just pulled out pretty much the whole interior minus the dash. Going to pull the carpet soon and either dye it dark grey/black, or find out about having it done professionally.

                              Nope!, I've been working on my baby for 4 yrs and has always been a SoCal car.

                              I have to admit though, everytime I look at his sig I take a double look because our cars seem too similar except for the old school ACSs on my car.

                                For some reason I liked the tan carpet with your car. It just needed some grey cloth rear seats to finish it off.
