    I don't know. But the first step I am planning is to change the springs. Probably hyperco and do 8k front 10k rear (approximately 450lb front 550lb rear) which is appropriate for the e30 rear suspension geometry.

        Good morning! The little ice-coffee bottles from Le's sure wake you up.

            How do you filter it?

              It's a stainless steel filter that separates the coffee from the water. Basically the coffee sits in the middle of the pot submerged in water for 24 hours. Then I pull the grounds and filter out and voila a delicious pot of cold brew. Its really easy

                Why not just brew a hot pot and refrigerate it?

                          Sometimes I'll brew a hot pot strong, and throw in ice; the potency is gone once it's cool enough. I'll enjoy a hot cup of coffee black, but dislike it cold. Has to be sweet when it's cold.


                          For suspension, I'm aiming for the full conversion kit. Set and forget, until I want to up the springs. The car already sees mild track days and autox, and I just like the reputation and versatility the GC kit has. Also, new = lifetime warranty.

                          Is JMP going to be worth the drive to get an alignment (from Torrance)?


                          I hope everyone has seen the other thread-- Landmark Cruise #5. We meet at the Rose Bowl at 10am Sunday morning (almost 10 hours from this posting time). Hope to see you guys there!

                            I'm starting to think picking up this extra night shift was a bad idea. Not doing anything but I can't fall asleep

                              I think the set up Barry is selling, is pretty legit though.
                              Do some research and comparison. I had the GE conversion before deciding to go full coil over retard., the spring rates are pretty much the same as the suggested ones from GC.
