Dumped and type A's. Actually going to be my setup hopefully by bimmerfest. And a few other things. Glad my car is finally beginning to make it in pictures. Need to start tying up the loose ends.

Damn, missed out big time.

@r3zzen i saw you on carillo in sb yesterday around 1230 i believe. your car... sex.

[R3Z3N]

^Thanks bud! Props go to jahnaboi for the build though. I have been just slowly getting it ready to be a good AutoX/HPDE car...and polished it. Needs another polish and wax, and a new paint job...

Had fun today pulling more stuff from my wrecked AlpineII. Maplight mirror is MINE!! ;-)

I should rep the state of the majority of E30s out there in the world next time and bring my shell :-D

[jaywood]

Why new paint?

[R3Z3N]

It's a bad Maaco paint job. Needs new trim as that's been painted, paint literally falling off of the IS lip, paint just plain gone in parts of the door sills.... At least it wasn't resprayed another color.

BTW a heads up, if anyone installs a 10" Lukebox, your car rear seat buckles will rattle in their housings....took me an hour to figure that out today. I thought I needed some sound deadening somewhere. Ugh.

7.5 :/

I've got a set of 8.5s that I'm getting ready to put on. should look better.


Taylor

[R3Z3N]

^^ Agreed, 8.5s would look good. What size rubber are you going to run?

Oh hot diggity damn, I can finally stop!! Now I just need 235s in the front, switch the lips around on the RSs, and remove the brake reducer proportioning valve for an adjustable and it should turn as well as stop (once I get the car corner balanced anyway) The 215's up front are just too small, especially compared to the 235s in the rear.

I got it bad though, I am already daydreaming about the AutoX in SB....

[E30_fiend]

Im going to run my 205/40 Falken 512s. I need the stretch to clear

I wants those 7.5's. Or the 8.5's but I doubt those are on the market.

[IRON-E]

Ben-ooper had the 8.5 for sale, you just fell asleep on those.
