    What are you guys doing to get camber/ toe adjustments out of the back? Or do you guys rely on the good chunk of static camber you get from just dropping the car and deal with the toe?

              I think I'm going to do most of these things anyways, even with my car not being on a track. I just got my E30 a couple weeks ago so this seems like a great idea to me.

                    I want to build a track car, but not sure If I want to tear down my baby. I was thinking of maybe getting another e30 and making it a track car using the LSx motor or simply buying an e46 M3.

                    What do you guys think? I know many of you are gonna go with the e30, but my heart will not allowed me to tear down an e30, but would tear down any other platform like the e46. LOL

                        Experience is fairly little, but really excited to have a good track car. Budget is about 15K or so depending but will increase as time goes by with bigger and better performance part or so.

                          E36 m3 and track time, or e30 and track time, or e46 and track time. Don't modify a damn thing aside from brake pads and go drive it.

                            I was told that by people that has been doing for many years and it makes a lot of sense. Thanks!

                              thing is, with all e30's, most e36's, and some e46's, you have to catch up on maintenance before you hit the track!

                              i'd budget at least 2x the purchase price of an e30, 1x the purchase price of an e36, and .5x the purchase price of an e46 to get all the suspension wear parts, brakes, and engine maintenance up to par. assuming you're searching for deals on the car..

                                Yeah I will probably get another e30 or a e46 M3 for track only. As Bimmerman3251 stated in his post, just keep the car stock and just replace the pads of course and keep up with maintenance. At the circuit of America yesterday, there were a couple of people doing just that and they performed well. I am not trying to go full blown track car and spent all of this crazy money, at least not yet, LOL. I always say that I won't hook up a car and end up doing it anyways.
