    decided an upgrade was necessary since the future holds boost. went with a spec stage 3+clutch and aluminum lightweight flywheel. rev matching is a dream now...

    Turbo m20 e30 track car

    Figured as I'm approaching my start of the turbo part of my build, now is a good time to start keeping track of the build. Plan is to turn my current e30 project into a reliable 3-400whp ripper. I'll start with an intro of the car. Bought about a year and a half ago out of Texas and i drove it back up to Minnesota. Made it all the way but as it got hot the tranny liked to slam into gears after a brief 5 second wait. LOL. Plan was to manual swap it anyway. Of course the car was rougher than I anticipated, leaks, small rust spots, bondo, etc but that's part of the game i suppose.
    Heres the rundown of what im going for. full track capability but still can enjoy it on the street. I want 400whp on e85 out of a turbo m20 that i can turn down as i desire for track use.basic m20 stuff, headgasket, headstuds, a standalone and upgrade everything necessary to make it reliably.

    When I bought the car.

    After many nights of fixes, small body work and such i started doing some small mods. Started with removing the auto trans and putting a manual in it. Only took a day so it wasn't bad at all. I put a used stock clutch in (I regretted it later)

    Left it pretty much like that and did my first track event with it. It went pretty well, started to snow a touch and last day i had a causality. my clutch was done.
