Im at Ultimate Autowerks now, worked at the dealer for 7 years. Last time i talked to you i was at the dealer.

And the kid that Zac^ is talking about, his name is James, and his turbo e30 is a blue coupe. I think he is still trying to get the tuning figured out.

He is in Charleston with a turbo m20 e30. I'm sure he would lend a hand.

Awesome thanks! Is his E30 grey by chance? I think he's been out to a few impromtu local meets before. That was back when I had my E90 M3. miss that car :(

the best machine shop would have to be Don's Automotive Machine shop in Moncks Corner. I never even heard of someone not loving his work, good prices too. problem is they are so good they have a 3 week waiting list for getting work done.(most of the time id check with them first)
my grandfather has been getting all his motor machining done there for 30+ years and swears by them and my grandfather runs his own auto repair shop

Simmon's in Summerville I have heard really good things about and they have really good people working for them. and no waiting under normal conditions

Awesome thanks for the tips! The guy I bought the car from apparently builds motors for a living and checked out some of the parts. Just need to block looked at, maybe the head and have it honed to get it clean. Will def. call around the places mentioned!

Putter, we go through Simmons in west ashley for all our stuff.

If you want mechanical help hit me up.

I can get you parts too.

Cool I'll let you know. Still working through what I need and don't need. Really just need parts looked at and need to just take some time to measure stuff to see if within spec.

What shop do you run out of West Ashley BTW? Also I was the one at local meets with the space grey E90 M3 and before that the grey Porsche Cayenne Turbo. I'm sure we've talked before!

FYI pics of the recent pick up! Going to be a fun project!

Also if anyone knows of a good machine shop in the area please let me know! Would like to get the head, block and crank looked at. Also anyone want to help with a rebuild in the future! I'm learning but would be fun to have a second person to work with!

anyone want some RX-7 FC front brake calipers?
I have a set that came off my old 7 still working great when they came off.
I can even custom make the mounting brackets needed for the swap.

i could sell them but id rather trade for something i will need. brake rotors or
brake lines or front hawk hps pads or good rear calipers or maybe some 15" tires
or an unbroken driver side rear door molding 4dr

pm me if you are interested in any way....

i can get you the rotors.

Curious. Anyone have a car trailer in the Charleston area they wouldn't mind me borrowing for a day? Was going to go the U-Haul route otherwise but not 100% confident with them for towing!

Also anyone with easy access to a lift? Would probably make the swap of the who driveline much more simple ;)

[PutterMcGavin]

Hell yeah! Hope it was as clean as it looked.

Let's put it this way...I was originally thinking I might part it out but after seeing it and how clean it is I'm going to go through the hassle of swapping the engine, suspension, subframe, front and rear to the new car along with some other misc parts on mine. I'll post up some pics later this weekend. It is super nice.

If I ever meet you I owe you a beer!

Thanks for the heads up! He even threw in a Haynes manual ;)
