Was surprised to see it on cl the other day. I'll keep an eye out for ya.

I've seen a few bug-eye subies popup recently, or grab a cheap e28 my next project (I think).

8 months ago I was all about finding a e28. Now I am not so sure but I could easily get back into them at least.

You are also right about the WRXs, I noticed the same thing too.

I didnt expect to sell that fast for full asking price, like what happened with my touring.

how about a 125k mile IX coupe? PM me for details if your interested.

Went to pick up my '89 58k mile iX from storage in Mendota yesterday, got as far as my daughter and son's house in Mendota. Put the car into P and snapped the shifter cable, bummer. Will order a new cable this week and will install the new one next weekend.

You best swap in a 5 speed so that doesn't ever happen again. :)

Awesome! I need some more car friends. And I only need advice with that stupid guibo....can it be done at home? I'm debating it taking it to the BMW guys on Derby Ln. in Westchester; they're walking distance to my work and parents' house.





And I can't forget about my other car and true love:

Greetings and welcome! I no longer have an E30, I went modern, but the E30 was my first! Driven a few times to Tacoma for the E30 Picnic and had a blast!

Cheers

Guibo can absolutely be done at home. I find it helps to have a deWalt impact gun or similar and several feet of extensions. Also, PB blaster everything you will be removing ahead of time.

I put the car up on ramps with a jack under the diff periodically to lift the car up and rotate the dirveshaft, drop the exhaust, unbolt diff/driveshaft flange bolts, unbolt center support and the guibo bolts. i do the latter with a little box end wrench and the lengthy impact gun/extensions setup described above. Make sure the little triangle arrows are pointed the right way when you put the guibo back on. also, when you bolt the center support back up, make sure you put a little forward tension on the support as you bolt it back into place.

Also, Ben in Westchester does good work but he is usually pretty busy so dont be in a hurry to get your car back.
