    Ok dudes, I seriously need my E30 vert roller gone. Turns out I moved in to a bad situation and I have to GTFO by the end of the month.

    I put some serious love and money into the suspension build on this car. Full 5-lug conversion from a Z3, which comes with bigger brakes and Porterfield R4S pads, and they fucking drop anchor when you put the left foot down. The only place it *doesn't* have poly or solid bushings is the rear shock-top mounts. Front subframe and rear trailing arms got weld-on reinforcements, and there are frame reinforcements from Mason and that Ari guy. Ireland Engineering sway bars have all the cool reinforcement bits too. And there are a ton of personal touches- a cool cupholder you can't get anymore, a gauge pod with a wideband, corbeau racing buckets, a custom front valance designed to feed more air to the radiator, a bunch of euro bits like smiley headlights and the bumper trim, list goes on.

    If you hate that all of the cool shit is in a vert chassis, then strip it down and put all of the cool bits on your coupe or sedan- everything swaps over.

    Have gotten a couple of tentative offers for $3K, so that's what I'm asking.

    Someone come take it away and use the parts or build it into something new, please.

          I have absolutely no idea. The GF is out in Oakland right now (near Piedmont) looking for a place. We're trying to stay under the $2000/month range for a 1-bedroom, so I'm not sure what geographical area that puts us.

          I'm just stoked to get away from the heat and humidity of Richmond. It's miserable here right now.

            that range probably puts you in north oakland or west oakland. berkeley if you find the right spot. either way all those places are great. east bay is a whole lot of fun. good luck

              Welcome, 2000/month near the school is gonna be damn near impossible.

              Piedmont/Oakland area will be more likely. One thing youd wanna look to get close to is a BART station. BART is our "subway" and you can pretty much get anywhere in the bay with it including Berkeley, they have a station like 2-2 1/2 blocks from the campus.

              Trying getting a place close to one so you dont really have to drive in the crappy traffic and crappy parking and crappy parking citation prices. lol

              Goodluck on the search friend!
              SO MUCH MORE TO DO!!

                  Here in Martinez it's possible to find nice 2 bedrooms with a garage for under $2k. We aren't far from I80 which would take her straight into Berkeley (lots of traffic though unfortunately) and there are 5 BART stations close by. Just something to think about!

                  Is this guy really selling a hardtop for $500? https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/pts/5670521114.html

                                Hey guys, looking about buying the pieces to make upgraded starter to alternator and chassis ground cables in 2g sizing. Unfortunately the smallest quantity I have to order will leave me with a good amount left over, so I figured I'd see if anyone is interested in a set if I make extra, to help offset the cost. Thinking $20 for the pair?
