    Hey LowR3vn theres a E30 sightings thread... I love seeing the cars, but it would be nice if you posted them in the right place.

    I cruised 101 to Santa Barbara earlier and saw what looked like a flat black sedan going south while I was going north. Then on the way back I passed an old dude cruising his ~89 vert. I thoroughly enjoyed driving to SB and back in ~4 hours

      Just drove the 190 to AZ this weekend. First roadtrip in the car and it was both frightening and exciting

                    The real question is will you enjoy the stroker setup while you properly rebuild the M52 or will you simply throw it in?

                      ^ the smarter choice of the two, simon. :) . Enjoy the stroker and work out other parts of the car. And slowly build up parts for the m52 / rebuild it.

                            :up:

                            I agree, definitely the smarter choice. Enjoy your hard work, keep plugging away on the swap and do your research so you never have to change a timing belt again! haha

                              Yeah man what actually was my problem with the timing belt was that i was supposed to take off the sparkplugs lol. At least i can enjoy the m20 til swap time comes :) . Sad and happy about it.
