Congrats, what happens to the red car?

I'm still gonna DD it until I get the alpine car roadworthy, but eventually, I'll take the suspension and interior out of the sedan and swap it into the coupe. It's kinda rough, so I'm gonna be working on it for a while.

I'll sell it after a while, but I do love driving it still!

An E30+E28, what else does one need?!

A base model Neon with missing wheel covers and 'SRT' in reflective mailbox letters stuck crookedly to the front fenders.

So if my engine does throw a rod or something, how much could I get an M20b25 for locally? Estimates?

[e30:)]

3 4 hundred.. what makes you think its going to throw a rod?

[5Toes]

I have this really loud noise at just 2000-2200rpm. It happened after drifting in a parking lot (flame suit on)

Basically I have babied about 10 miles since since, but I just dont know

[e30:)]

what does it sound like? knocking, grinding, ect

[kennyvb]

Just turn your stereo up. That noise will go away.

[5Toes]

Its a very hollow knock. Im going to adjust valves and disconnect the water pump v belt and peek around the engine bay for possible rattles. But it sounds way too loud to be a rattle off the engine

Sounds like what this guy describes
