Until pick and pull took over, you could get anything for dirt cheap. That's why they went under, sadly. Everything is super expensive there now, and the selection of euros is small. Tons of Japanese cars. Guess its just a trstament of our cars longevity!

Yea pick n pull sucks. They want 60$ for ECUs... 325 ecus....

Well this local yard is pretty good on price, but the one dude who works there is an ass and wont even tell you inventory if you call before you go.

Almost makes it worth a drive to tacoma pull a part

So just hopped in the e30 for a quick spin, and the WEIRDEST thing happened! the rear driver side wheel was locked up. it was dragging for a bit going forward (3 or 4 feet). Then I put car in reverse to it back in its spot for another day and it freed up. Upon test driving it drove fine and braked normal. weird

[Wschnitz]

Did your Diff lock up? Or brake?

If brake it might be that your missing the guide pin boots. My right front is missing and the brake is almost gone now...

Almost. Tried convincing my father to stop at all the U pulls in Oregon on the way back.

nah nothing like this has ever happened. mlarsen and I did the brakes last fall, everything all new.

weirder part was when putting the tranny from neutral to reverse the car rolled. I cant even explain it.

all is good now though. hooray

u might...many have, but they were all having fun doing it.

ive been through 3 dirtbikes and a quadracer, and a streetbike....bikes are best hands down, but i have (literally) brushed death so many times i sold them and decided to build a drift car (with a cage)...that said....there are few better feelings then tearing down a single track and emerging unto an amazing view or sun(rise, set) scene...

what sux is all the green hiker asshats behind the closing of many trails year after year.

Like Travis Pastrana always said, with age comes a cage
