        or e30 rubber mounts on e36 motor mounts
        just the rubber mounts as nigel put it.
        just flip the mounts upside down on the stock engine mounts and your good to go, although youll need an early model throttle linkage, unless yours is already an early model.

            just paid my speeding ticket. the system is so fucking corrupt and greedy.

            originally, the ticket was $231, but then another $57 for the traffic school option, not including the cost of traffic school. then comes the $5 handling fee and $4 convenience fee. i paid by e-check to avoid the credit card fee. so in short, an already bogus $231 ticket is really $297+traffic school costs.

            god bless america.

                    yes it's my first. i don't really speed. it just pisses me the hell off that the justice system can tack on fees left and right and we're just too accepting to bend over and take it. law enforcement shouldn't be a business with quotas and profit margins.

                    whatever, i know, there's 'nothing i can do." that's what i've been told.

                      dont get caught. I got a 62 in a 45 zone , hit me with the radar gun. Ended up paying 350 , 1st speeding ticket.

                      I guess from all the years avoiding cops i can see crown vic. lights from a mile away lol. better work on that and it will keep your ass safe.

                        Castro's is worth the drive. E30MW is over priced. Chris Castro will take good care of you.

                          not much you can do when you're radar'd from far. i'm as good as anyone at picking out crown vic lights...i saw him about a hundred yards before he flipped on his lights, but in an automatic tacoma with LED tails it's hard not to make braking obvious. it was bogus all around.
