Who are you?

I hear during spirited driving in porches that letting off the throttle mid-corner will turn you into a drifto king.
That's called "oversteer" and was phased out sometime in the 70s in favor of "safety". It's also why 4 cylinders is better than 6, but I digress...

Not yet, but I'm planning on having that and the air/oil separator replaced before I start racking up serious miles on it. Should be about a $1500-2000 job. Clutch is in great condition as far as I can tell, but I probably should replace it anyway...
I don't know how adventurous you are but from what I have read you can do this yourself with some mechanical aptitude and patience.

I got a reminder email that I need to log in or face deletion so I'm doing that.
I am a guy that used to have an E30 from 2005-2009. It was a ratty '84 5MT 325e coupe but I put a 3.25LSD and some other parts/mods on it. It was a fun car and surprisingly reliable despite being in a constant state of falling apart at the seams due to having many previous owners that did not take care of her. The car burned a quart of oil every 500 miles for 5 years, all while subject to me driving the f'ing WHEELS off that car in all Wisconsin weather conditions. Thing was a champ.
I'd like to find another some day but it would have to be a nice one and those aren't cheap anymore. I am from Madison but I used to kick around with a guy named Nick up near Steven's point. He had a boosted 2.7 stroker '88 5MT 325i 4 door.
Currently I have an '04 WRX wagon with all the usual WRX bolt on shit. This is my daily. The '08 narrowbody is my buddy's car.
My project car (and it's a project, let me tell you) is a 1991 Isuzu Impulse RS. I had this car at the 2012 WI Bimmers meet. This car currently is in storage, awaiting warmer weather and likely some driveline and suspension repairs.

I'm 25 live in Elkhorn married with a 2 month old daughter have 3 dogs a house and too many cars.. I Work in machining cnc, manual what ever I need to get it done. Also work in engineering at the same time mainly I'm the guy that gets to blow stuff up and make new stuff testing developing new parts etc. everything I do for work is mainly 2 stroke engine parts for a motor my companies produces. Everything is mad in the us most sold to China. When I started we had 1 motor 120cc 5hp 5ftlbs of tq @5500rpm. Then I got power hungry and made a 120 cc 12hp 10ftlbs of tq. 6500rpm 26.7hp an 14ftlbs 7600rpm has been seen before it cracked the head.my favorite is watching them take off at 17krpm and melt down its awsome! I love my job cutting metal an developing new products. I'm hoping to get into custom maching of other parts one off parts prototypes and new production parts this year. I also drink way too much mountain dew. And off you tell me there is free food I'm there no questions asked.
Btw enjoy all the typo's not reading threw all this on the phone

That is so weird, that we make stuff here and sell it to them but then we buy the same thing made over there to use in the US. Such a strange world anymore.
