I had a question for the track day crowd concerning brakes. For the last couple of years I've been autocrossing my e30 on a monthly basis, but wanted try a track day at Streets of Willow or Buttonwillow. Are the stock 4-lug brakes up to the task of a track day with an S52 swap? I would use PFC brake pads and add a ducting kit (essentially copy the Spec e30 recipe), unless the extra power over an m20 would overwhelm the brakes. I definitely need seat time and would be in a first-timer/amateur group, but don't want to go down the BBK or 5-lug rabbit hole before I have to.

I was wondering if anyone had thoughts or experiences on the matter. If it's of any help, my car weighs around 2650 lb with nearly a full tank of gas, so around 28xx with me sitting in the car.

I'd like to go as well, but getting my car dialed in first is paramount.

Anyone from socal driving up to the E30 Picnic 2022 this year?

I want to. I have until June to get my car running. It has a date with the mechanic at the end of May, which is cutting is close. We'll see how it goes.

I'm keeping a tab on who else from Socal is going to go. I see that activity more on instagram though.

Thank you for coming Edwin. Please, have a seat. Now tell me, how does that make you feel? What's really troubling you?

How TF do you multi-quote now?

It's a secret. An unnecessarily complicated secret.

If y'all make the commitment to comeback daily or at least a few times a week, I'll stay.

I’m here everyday, moderating and wondering when people will just come back and post actual updates instead, gosh it’s dead here. I’ll be back in a month and post the same thing lol
