If any of you guys want the original I can email it. The quality is lowered when it's hosted on r3v. Just in case you were gonna make a poster or something.

Great pic Kyle.

Good to see some other E30s on Saturday morning.

There are always 3 to 6 E30's at the monthly Main Line Cars & Coffee

I've seen the events for a while, but always wondered if they feel pretentious. I also don't wanna feel completely out of place next to something like a 2023 $200k car.
I'm in the burbs, Malvern PA btw if anyone is near me.

My cars almost in fighting form for the summer. I'll start turning up to some c&c and annoying the guys with the $200k new cars because they'll never be as fun as an e30. Make sure you guys all save July 20th for the e30 picnic. It's a damn good time and worth the drive just for all the give aways. The prize to attendence ratio is great.

Most of the cars at the Main Line c&c are not high-dollar exotics. The organizers use pics of those rides to draw attention on FB, but you'll see plenty of normal cars, like Miatas & E30's and some weird stuff like Citroens. Best part, if you miss one month, you can catch it next month. They've moved to a place in Bala Cynwyd which is very close to home for me. I took the pics below at the August '23 meet.

I've been trying to get the Picnic East for a few years, but it always happens while I'm out of town on family vacations. Maybe this year I can make it!

Anyone going to the E30 picnic this weekend?

[Swoozley Macklin]

Anyone hitting L'Show in pottstown this weekend? Will be trying to go saturday. Coming from North Wales area if anyone wanted to meetup.

Does anyone have a spare 885 head sitting around?

I thought my sedan had a head gasket leak, only to find two cracks in the head. I'm trying to get something quick so the car is drivable while I finish building the new engine. Obviously this is for an m20b25. Thanks!

I have not, but I will! Thanks for the advice!

Maybe my Google skills have declined, but I'm kind of surprised at how few e30 parts are available in the area.

Oh i know it, so much has changed. There used to be more than a handful of folks who always had a parts car going.

Evan Luce is a great resource too. His stuff is fairly priced and he's SpecE30 adjacent so he's in the know.

Edit: I just looked at his marketplace profile and he has an 885 up for sale:

Yeah, I found his FB posts and hit him up. He cut me a decent package deal, but then I found a crusty head for free. It'll be good enough for this build, but I'll keep him in mind for future stuff. We just didn't have timing worked out this time.
