Just sold the alpine early model.
Until i can afford more than two cars again, i am officially e30less.

Sad.

At least the e39 i picked up will keep me busy.

MR2 would be a great Autocross car. They are still viable and can be modified to your hearts content..

Mr.2 with a k20 and turbo. A buddy has one, it started off as a stock engine fun car, then he turbo'd it and it was really really really fun with 400hp, now hes over 800hp and doesnt do turns in it anymore. It's a fucking rocket.

Slip ring and work inquiry

Hello all,

My slip ring for my 1991 e30 vert went sproing the other night. I installed a non-airbag wheel on CL for cheap as a temp fix. I just need the slip ring, and my airbag wheel is mint, so I am looking for an inexpensive fix if anyone has one in the bin. I live in West Linn, and work by PDX, so I can pick up wherever.

Second inquiry is to see if there is any interest for out of shop repair. I keep the car as a toy, and do most of the light duty repair myself. Will be doing rotors and pads next weekend, etc.

I was interested in having a PNW r3v'r do more serious work, as my free time is limited with work and family. Potential projects include guibo replacement.

I only have 3k in the car and don't want it to turn into a money pit, and am happy with most things stock. Pacific Motorsports did my post-purchase inspection and noted the guibo. They seem a good shop, but intermediate pricing between dealer and small time shop.

Any direction to a individual/small shop in the area would be appreciated. Thank you all for the sage advice in the past. R3v is a fantastic resource.

...and...spam masubi are the BEST! Before Portland, I just finished up a four year working vacation on Oahu. I still miss walking into 7eleven and grabbing the best musubi on the island. Well...maybe Da Kitchen in Maui with the fried masubi is better.


Got reply.
Thanks, good to go.

Hey now, I haven't really done anything to that car, besides buy a MS box and have AJ come install it. My silver 330is and the mtech cabrio on the other hand...money fucking pit.

Just watched this last night. Good movie.

Definitely an e39 though. ;)

Autoweek says it a m3 and it's too new to be an e39.
