        Im Jason, im in the east bronx. Just got my e30 recently. Im down to meet up and learn more about this pain in the ass car. I also came from Honda/acura world, i still have and love my acura tho.

        Is there anyone in the area who can do some welding for me? I have BC coilovers and some garagistic weld in parts that i dont trust my skills stick welding.

        Hit me up

            i do, but it is so expensive that most people i do work for dont even consider it. and i feel the vinyl lasts longer, and holds up better than the leather. so in my opnion, i would use the vinyl. but i can work with anything my juki will handle.

            heres a steering wheel i did, the suede i used has a funny thickness issue, but ill recover it with something more consistant.

              I'm also from Brooklyn (Williamsburg). Basic suspension mods--looking to just restore it to make it look brand new. Anyone have a driver side rear brillantrot door by chance?! I'm also down for a meetup.

                      Come on M3Troy, thats not true. I merely put it up as testing waters, I have since kept it and have been improving it weekly. Just picked up an e46 center console to install soon.

                      As for the meetups, I apologize for not staying current with the thread, I have been tied up with work so I have only been enjoying the car in Westchester on the weekends. There is the weekly meet as mentioned at Toys R Us, I have gone a few times and some nice cars show up. They are very unorganized when they take a "cruise" though.

                      I have met quite a few e30 owners from this board and outside of it and so far nothing but positive experiences. As long as the car lasts through winter, I will be doing a turbo build as we have replaced most of the important parts of the body and motor to handle this.

                      I will set something up for all of us before the Winter time strolls around.
