    Valve springs are fine. Bouncing off the rev limiter I do need a better cooling system. Probably just need an electric fan that I can have an auxiliary switch to kick into high power mode.

    I really just need another car. Right now I'm gonna get some coil overs and I'm considering getting e46 control arms and an e36 rack with e92 inner tie rods

      valve float is what im worried about. etas are much more prone to that as a failure. and we used old spring on that head. i have a set of 325i ones laying around when i built yours, thats why the regret.

        These have seen a lot of time at the rev limiter of 5300 I'm sure they will be just fine, I see no failure in sight lol.

          I do understand they have 240k miles on them, and 885 valve springs are much better lol.

                          Yeah I can't remember the E30 color names well enough anymore to be able to say which it was lol...light silver?

                          Looked like BBS style wheels, I never saw it stopped to get a good look unfortunately.

                              There's a couple solid E30's on craigslist and I made the mistake of riding in/driving my friend's last night and it has 1000000% reignited the spark. Gotta get back into one, bye bye 540 and possibly touring
