Nicademus' 1986 325e Journal

[Nicademus]

I think you might have a problem.

I have another car and a motorcycle too that are worth far more money than the E30 but yets I dump cash into this car......oh wait? 1/10 of those parts are actually in the e30...the rest are strewn about the house :roll:

I think you might have a problem.

What would you like? I currently have:

- 20 wheels/tires (5 sets)
- 6 steering wheels
- 8 seats
- 1 $500 86' 325e :nice:

Value of everything compared to car??

I neeed to sell some stuff and stop buying more crap. Offers? ;)

[cepa318is]

hahahahahahaha...thats insane...not only a wheel whore but a seat whore. Gimme some houndstooth stuff please.

[Nicademus]

Well I pretty much had one of the best scores of my life. I just picked up this Recaro office chair (a power one keep in mind) for a mere $95! These chairs are mucho expensive. I bought it from halfpricepots which went out of business last week. Tons of the owners stuff was there. I almost bought this really cool Schwinn bike that goes in your house for exercise (really really nice one). I'm even into bicycling but it was just so cheap. They also had tons of Macintosh stereo equipment, High Pressure Sodium lights ;), safes, art, anything you can think of from an office. Anyways onto the pics:

That is the update :)

Update!

[Nicademus]

Yesterday I bought a Houndstooth Sports seat (which I may be selling before it even arrives because I'm thinking of going a different direction). So now I'm beginning my seat collection as well:

- 2 houndstooth standard
- 1 houndstooth sport
- 2 Recaro LN??
- and perhaps 2 mystery seats tomorrow :P actually I'm 99.8% sure I'm getting them
- also looking at getting a Recaro office chair

Today I purchased another steering wheel too. An Alpina wheel!! :D

Pictures when the items arrive.

Negative. I used to be an EE major, but nothing as fancy as being certified.

(and I've been up since 8:33)

[Nicademus]

I just woke up :D

Thanks for all the compliments. I'll try and get pics of the new wheels. I really need to drop my car though. I own rear Bilstein sport shocks and rear eibach springs, but nothing for the front so I'm waiting to find some.

Are there benefits from stud besides ease of mounting?

MECP = Mobile Electronics Certified Professional? Really Kronus?

[Slow16vJetta]

He has a point about the studs...

[alpinaclone]

Yeah, you weirdos are up later than even myself, and I think I may have a minor problem.

Enough about that. If you are going to be a wheel whore, you have to whore pics of your car with the wheels on. It's the law.

On that note, if you are going to be swapping wheels as often as you should be, I would invest in a set of wheel studs, it would make life much more pleasant.

[Slow16vJetta]

Kronus = MECP Certified?

Im liking the progress with your car.

[Stephen]

^ouch. I'm so glad my earliest class is 1:30

[kronus]

Well.

I've been working on school assignments since roughly 6 PM. Starting a particularly confusing CS assignment now. The plan is to break for sleep at 4 AM, wake up at 8, and learn a semester of econ before 11. Then, class until 6. Then, 6 hours to finish the CS assignment and submit it before 11:59 PM. Then, more work.

I think I've been on 4 hours of sleep a day for the last 3 weeks.
