    how about 'poor grammer/spelling'?

    Id like to nominate myself for a few
    - Biggest hack?

    Best turbo would have to go off site. The guys dyno sheet has been posted, and for those of you who know Otis, you will agree.

            Id like to put myself in the running for the best r3v. My stupid stupid stupid ass r3v my euro car after 18 days of ownership, in the rain at night on bald tires. Ultimate r3v.

              if there were a catagory for most money wasted on a "stock" e30. Donar car 87 325 $600. Engine from my R3Ved '90. Electrical system and most parts from '90 into '87 plus paint= $7000. and its still stock except for color.

                Avus E30, I'd stack my car up against that (all costs in $AUD):

                Purchase: $8000
                Transport: $660
                Registration: $1100
                Fix overheating: $1300
                Undercarriage repairs: $6500 (includes Bilstein Sprints, new control arms w/M3 bushings, steering rack rebuild and fitting Eibach Pros I supplied, plus other stuff)
                Respray: $4500
                Fix exhaust: $450

                There's a fair bit more coming soon (17s and some cosmetic touches) but that will take my total outlay on the car, from purchase to the end of these first mods to $AUD24,000 (since May)...

                            How about longest drive to get an e30 - 2400 miles just on the trip home.
