                  I am a senior design/mechanical engineer BAWSE

                  all people care about is experience when finding an engineering job. if you have none then they say fuck you, it blows.

                  I started out as just a drafter then they saw OOOOOOOOOOOOOO he can design shit and I got promoted up.
                  Where are you working?
                  I have 2 semesters left until I grad.

                      Double check on the dmv site which ones your county allows.

                            I'm taking a break from the E30 game, I'll be back when I actually have room to work on a car again :/

                            That said, I have a ton of brand new suspension stuff I'm trying to unload. Ireland Engineering sway bars, 4.10lsd, Bodge strut mounts, springs, tails, etc

                            Got to move it to start on my motorcycle build :)
                            Drive it hard. Maintain it well.

                                It does have side draft carbs, two shitball flat top Hitachi SUs. Yes its begging for a big cam and triple 44mm Mikuni pHHs. The question is, what is it going in?
