    How goes it E30 fellas!

    Haven't stopped in lately. Still very much miss my E30 325iS.



    She's out in Chicago with the guy I sold her too (as far as I know).
    I went through a Saab 9-5 Aero, a WRX Wagon and a 92 GTI between then and now and I still think fondly of that car. Everything worked so well together.
    I still loved the action of that UUC shifter and the 750i Master Cylinder upgrade which gave a nice solid pedal. Not to mention it was the only car I ever got a chance to track and boy was it fun.
    It's been about 5 years since I sold it and now I'm driving a 95 Audi S6 (you can read about my build by clicking on the pic in my sig). I hope to get another E30 sometime in the near future. I still love that indestructible motor and chassis. 3 years of ownership and only broke the clutch hydraulics.

    Figured I'd see how things were going around here? Where's the current market for these? Has the aftermarket sprung up since I left?
    Any major new things available for them or anything that people are doing to them that's innovative?

        lol

        also, I found the dyno charts I had for the car. I apparently kept nearly every photo I took :D


        pretty strong for a mostly stock car. I remember the noise it made with that Supersprint. *sigh* I've owned a LOT of cars and that one was still my favorite.
        I'm half tempted to trade my S6 for an 89-90 325i Sedan.

                Cool, welcome back. Gotta love those H&R Sprints, I hear they really nail down the handling.

                        Yeah, that was Mwerks. I wrote most of the content for that site. I still update the BMW FAQs.
                        I stopped working for the dealerships last year. Now I'm actually making a living with a real company
