      well, that's the idea and my main reason for the conversion is for 60/40 weight distribution instead of 50/50... i need 60/40 for drifting, so i can just let the tail kick as often as it needs to...

      as for auto-x and road racing, i'm buying another e30 so i can have 50/50 or 53/47 weight distribution.... ;)

        wow

        maybe a five lug swapped one but not a e30 m3, there fine just the way they are!

        Im sure it can be done with time and money, just look at the Norris design evo.
        factory quality and about the same amount of work involved.
        if you can tell the roof is chopped to.

            That actually looks really good. I wouldn't expect a roof chop to look good on an Evo, but the slimmed greenhouse looks hot.

                              It would probably throw the weight distribution out the window.

                              Not that I care, of course.

                                LOL, I see someone found all my photoshops! Sorry the host is down and e30hatch.com site is currently not working, AGAIN.

                                Here's the latest photoshop I did which the car is being based off of. It is NOT being built using a e30 M3 but a 1 owner '84 318i with a cracked block. I'm putting in a M52 from a '96 328i then a cometic head gasket and ARP studs with a GT30R. Already have a set of BBS staggered style 5's from a Euro 8-series and currently collecting e30 M3 body parts to give it the look I'm going for...
