Then, realize that my car will be on jack stands for at least another 3 weeks. I'm looking for some autox performance suggestions.
My thoughts are brakes and ss lines and they will be very easy to get to currently. Also, I am getting a front sway bar, so that might as well happen now. The bushings on the car are ok, so I might wait on those.

I need a 3.73 lsd, intake, chip, m30maf, racing wheel, short shift
I want an Is lip and splitter, 15" summer street wheels,

thoughts, opinions on order, people feel like helping :p
I think I am really set on brakes and lsd first, but if there some easy and quick change while the car is in pieces, lemme know.

an LSD would be a great choice 3.73 or even 4.10 would be good for autoX

The intake won't do much, mine came with my car otherwise I wouldn't have one.

Light wheels would be good, I think the popular one are from bimmerworld?

i have a 3.73 lsd with 165k that runs great. still installed in my car so you can hear it run and what not. looking for 250 but neg. let me know, will be out on wednesday. if plans go right

Brakes, LSD, chip. Those are actual upgrades.

Seat time, seat time, seat time. After that you will know what you need. You will be able to tell where the car is lacking in performance.

Agreed, but his car won't be driveable for three weeks so it makes sense to upgrade it while it sits.

Love the mountain region. You all are so freaking fast to respond.

Every once in a while a hit redline in second while autoxing, so, I dont think a 4.10 will work. I just figures an intake would go well with a MAF, but yes, I understand there really is no performance gain. Look at my sig, those are my 949 wheels I got for racing.

Is there any noise at all? I am very interested in this. Lemme know about seeing it tomorrow after work. Why are you taking it out?

Brakes, LSD, chip. Those are actual upgrades.

My brakes do not fade during autox, but they are lacking bite, so thats why I want the ss lines. also, in a sharp turn, I can get the inside rear to light up, hence the LSD. However, I am sure that the coilovers will help with that!

My thoughts exactly. Car is in a garage on jackstands just waiting for some love.

LSD and brake pads. in that order.

LSD changes the way an e30 drives, for the better. I thought the difference in feel was quite amazing, so much more bite.

Brake pads/rotors will increase your confidence.

Do those things and along with the coilovers your car will be a whole different beast. I wouldn't spend money on anything else other than lap days after doing these things (except maybe track tires...).

I love cheap LSD's. That was one of the main reasons I bought a E30.
