I think what happened is that everyone expected it to get shut down so nobody came this year. But honestly mobbing to treasure island after it got shut down and shooting there was just as fun as the marina meet last year.

[ohthejosh]

I think this year was better because no ass wipe idiots causing unnecessary commotion. Turn was awesome, seemed like there more e30s than any other single model of a car also. Glad cops were there early to settle it all down from the get go.

I'm sure there were less people because of last year as well as the other meet thatbwas going on down in socal.

Also, those cops were chill. Walkin around checkin cars out and what not.

And I also noticed the amount of e30s was greater than any other car. Who owns that red m3 with s14 turbo. One of my favorite cars there for sure.

Alright nor-cal, I need to get a more SF-friendly wheel/tire setup for work.

FOR SALE:

Formerly-Stephen's white corvette salad shooters- staggered 16x8.5/9.5

Have staggered tires as well; 205/50 front, 225/45 rear (these are both proper e30 rolling diameter). Tires not mounted.

Make me an offer, need to get a set of e34 15" bottlecaps and 205/55 tires for them, so if one of you PnP rats wants to grab some for me (with caps plz) I'll be willing to let these go for the cost of new tires. Otherwise, taking offers.

Guys, having a shaking issue. It all started thanksgiving break.

On my drive to NorCal from SD my car was fine. Before I go back I do and oil change, check stuff, rotate tires, etc. On my drive home the steering wheels shakes around 65 mph, and then every 10 mph increments from there. I had the tires balanced when installed a few months ago, I have all new control arms, bushing, etc in the front (minus strut top hats). I assumed it was the way I torqued the wheels down, but it wasn't. The hub bore on the wheel is larger than the e30 bore, and I dont have centering rings, buutt I know I dont need these, they are just reccommended. Any ideas? It's kind of odd to me, because I had no shakes before I rotated my tires.

And by rotate it move the front to the back and back to front because I have directionals.

Probably have some funky wear issue on rear tires, you moved this problem to the front. Maybe rear end bushing are worn out causing a toe in/out issue.

[mbonanni]

I just raised the rear to put some brake quiet on and checked out all the bushings.

My rear wheels have play. I can rotate them back and forth even with ebrake applied. My passenger side rear sway bar end link had popped off and both sides are completely shot. Everything on this rear end is toast. It is time for me to start collecting a rear end.

I also think my steering rack is slightly shot or going out as I have a veeryy small amount of play side to side.

UGGGHHH
