        I'm Brody - I hold an annual e30 bbq event in the spring for the DMV and and co-founder of the College Park Weekly meets. I also helped organize the drive up to GutenFest '11 with the CP, Baltimore and Philly crews.

        I pretty much handle the big e30 events in the md area. I've had some ideas for putting together a big fall drive but my schedule is packed between auditions and my two companies.

        here are threads to this years bbq event:

              Thanks, it's a lot of fun. We started with 12 cars the first year and this past spring we had almost 30! I's groing and I'm doing what I can to get as many people out as possible.

              As far as drives are concerned, Deep Creek Lake and Skyline are obvious choices. There are tons of roads out around luray caverns. Ubernasty showed us some nice roads up in the Baltimore area but I don't know them that well.

              Hey Vinnie! No e30 yet. I'm getting a parts car in two weeks to strip for suspension and tranny. I have 3.5 engines in my house right now. The overall project is pretty well laid out. I'm still stuck on whether to do a 5lug swap or not. I'm mostly concerned about caster issues. so the project goes like this:

              Engine:
              2.7 crank
              Lightened eta rods
              Maxsil .5mm OverBore Pistons
              Rebuilt I head
              Ebay headers

              The plan is to go with a bottom mount TCD turbo setup after the car is up and running.

              Chassis:
              Early model
              Mtech1 kit
              Bolt in or Custom 4point roll cage
              Corbeau TRS seats

              Suspension:
              Primarily stock bushings all around
              Poly Rear Subframe Bushings
              GC Coilover conversion for 4lug setup
              RX7 Calipers for 4lug

              GC e36 "Bastard kit" for 5lug
              BBK from Massive
              e36 96+ M Control Arms
              Treehouse Eyeball CABs

              Wheels:
              ACS type 2 17x8.5 for 5lug
              Azev Type A 17x8 for 4lug


              Because my travel schedule is so busy over the next few months will my opera auditions, the plan is to finish the engine rebuild by december and get started on the suspension in January. That way, by the time March rolls around I can start shopping for a chassis and bolt everything up.

              It's a long process but I'm patient and opera comes first. I'm also starting a new company so most of my time and money is wrapped up in my two careers.

              - Sorry for the thread jack dnick!
