    Ahh looks nice with the caps.. I've always been a fan of runnin with caps instead of without.

        Discussion question:
        Money isn't an object, Normally aspirated, which motor would you shove in your E30 and why.

        I've had my mind set of a M52 for a while, but the more I read about the M30, the more I get swayed that direction, especially since some of the South African cars came with them from the factory, and it seems that donors are a little easier to come by on the cheap than M5x cars. I'm not opposed to other motors also, S38 would be awesome, but realistically, they are too rare to use.

        So there it is, What motor and why?

          Money's not an issue, must be n/a.......probably some sort of formula 1 engine, ferrari maybe?

          Realistically though s54 or lsx.

            mmm.... lsx.

            Although S38B38 would be the cake-topper.

            Currently without an e30. Will probably die soon.

              If money isn't a issue I'd go with S38.

              So I was thinking these would look pretty awesome on my RC's

                S42 isnt a bad choice. Ultimate NA 4 banger made by BMW. If you wanted to stay era correct you could also get your hands on a M12/7

                  Money was no issue, m88/1 from an M1 procar.

                  Forced induction, the m88/2 had 900bhp with Twin turbos

                        Tell me i'm crazy..

                        A 1975 Fiat X/19 came up for sale from a friend of a friend.
                        It's a brown color. Hasn't run in YEARS! Not sure what it's gonna need, seller wants 400.00 for it. Everything within me is saying AVOID AVOID AVOID. I find myself searching google and looking at pics.

                          My first one was an E-go V3 vape pen.

                          Just picked up a Supernova Dry herb/wax pen. Seems to work pretty damn well. Comes with two different sets of coils. One for dry herb, the other for wax! Loving it.
