Alright, so Im keeping the e30 I think. Theres a 75% chance of it. The car runs incredibly good, and its at a little under 165k miles. What can I do to make sure it runs another 100k miles? Its been running a tick over the mid way mark, and I have to fill my coolant res every 3 weeks or so, because it has a real small leak. So obviously the water pump, thermostat, and tbelt will be done real soon. What else though?
My ideas:
1) Im going to lower it, so I'll have all the suspension/steering parts like BJs, idler arms, etc looked at before hand.
2) How about a head job? Is it a dumb idea to have a head job done if not necessarily needed?
3) Just buy a blown engine and have that rebuilt? (probably a little extreme).
Im just coming into a bit of money I wont be coming into until probably next income tax season lol. Im going to be lowering the car, putting a new rear apron, new wheels, tint, and smoked corners/tails. So I wanna spend the money wisely on making the car a real dependable DD for years to come... Though it is now. Its kind apointless to have a nice looking E30 that breaks down! (like my last one). I just want to ensure it will STAY that way.
Im sure this is a stupid newbie question, but oh well. Any suggestions are welcome
