    Nice work raking in the profit!

    You have at least another level to go above "glorious beacon" even if the bars are full. Remember, you might be the nearest thing to Jim Levie left on r3v, so yeah, we like ya.

      Just having a conceited moment, realize you guys might actually "like" having me round. :P

      Not that it matters much, pretty sure this is the strongest-ever second quarter at work, in a decade of being an e30-specialist. Will find out when the report is finished. We had a super-strong Q2 in '17(?) when we had the "no holds barred lsx w211/t56 race car swap"

            2.2L S10s are unreal slow. The engine is a turd too. My S10 is faster than my car was when I bought it

                    Is there a thread on this anywhere? I bought a W211 E320 CDI last October, so now curious about W211 content.

                    Also lusting after a C215 CL65 AMG... 12 cylinders, 2 turbos, 600 HP, *ALL* the torques and heated seats.

                      E-Class (W210) - e430 Endurance Racecar build - Hello, My name is John and a friend of mine decided he wanted for my small performance shop to turn his e430 into an endurance race car. We plan on competing in Chumpcar Daytona, FL in May 2015. This will be our 4th Chumpcar build, first MB as the other three were BMW's....

                        John, I feel cheated to only find out about that awesome build until now!... at least it gives me a new thread to look at. I always crosspost my other cars on R3V because even though I dont have an E30 right now, Im always part of R3V. That reminds me I should finally share my new project.

                          I often will cross post. Not sure why the MB project was never posted here. We only did a couple races with it, was still being ironed out and the owner sold it.

                          Really bad about even taking pics of cool stuff we do.

                            Finally got around to changing out my aux fan.

                            My resistor is where the fire started... Also, the motor is almost completely frozen. I wonder how that shit caught on fire before popping the fuse. It only had a 25 amp fuse..

                            I put an MTC one in there and the quality seems to be good, but most importantly I have ice cold ac at idle even with ~80* ambient temps.

                            Also, I've read that people take the rad/condenser out to do that job or remove the front valance. This was actually my first time doing one on a late model. But it took me like 30 mins lol

                              I just did a blower motor and resistor in an s52 swapped car on Wed. Takes a little longer in them since I put the 318/m3 harness covers, but was doable with little cursing.
