Nina soon to be with the owner meet my new love Tatyana

[Philo]

Ha I have a 3.0L m20 from them and it is sick. I can't wait to see this thing! I should have drove down to the shop and scoped it out during the build. Oh well. I might get antsy and make some phone calls to figure out what it is. Can't wait for more details.

baller, I wish I had a sunroof.

we totally need an e30 touring club. I would love if we could all meet at Oktoberfest next year and get a pic together

[ZM Blue Devil]

A get together would be nice, you, Aleks in Albany, Howard in NH and me in NJ.... Highly doubt my car will be done... Unless i hit the 120mm lotto this week.

so are you bringing this thing stateside?

With Nina getting ready to leave for NW Canada I'm getting ready to finally pull the touring out of storage. Named her Tatyana...

I want to try something different with her. Instead of modding the heck out of her right off of the start, I would like to first enter her in Concours competition. I figure I can work on her over the winter in my garage. Cleaning and replacing any broken/worn parts.

Paging Blunt...

Does anyone have any literature on guidelines/rules for such a thing, I did a couple of searches but haven't come up with anything. Is there a guide book, scoring sheet, etc, etc?

Here are some specs on her...

1989 Euro E30 Touring
88 kilometers, non sport tan interior, 5 speed

Here is a old pic from when I first found the car(note rear bumper and IS side skirts removed to check for rust... NONE, clean as can be.)

Before everyone starts flaming for keeping her stock... I have a long list of mods already to go for her(mm 240 sport, mk motorsport mk1s, new front bumper - mt2 ish.., leather interior, period correct recaros, period correct nakamichi, etc, etc, etc,) I just want to try something new so please don't hate.

[BrewCity11]

doh! has it been fully federalized?

I wonder what the laws are. It is 20 years old now, so maybe there's a way around it??

[ZM Blue Devil]

who cares, by the time Im done it will be an antique.

For what I have planned it may never be legal.

PS has anyone seen a e30 with "340" on the rear lid?:loco:

We could use the "4" from the 324td and the "0" from the 320, if you wanted it to look OEM
