Turns out my oil pan is not cracked. There was a loose bolt on the front case where oil was dripping out of that made its way to my skid plate. Tightened a few bolts, wiped everything down, blah blah blah, everything seems fine at this point. I definitely smashed the plate though as theres a huge spot of paint missing. Nevertheless it seems to have worked! Also, I sold my wheels and ordered up a set of 17x7 +40 17x9 +35 xxr 962. Looks like Ill have some fender rolling to do soon!
depending on your tire size/spacer size, you wont have to touch your fenders.

What size tire would you recommend? I'm not concerned with the fronts. But the rears I'm kinda lost about. I've never had a wheel wider than 8", and that had a 195 tire slightly stretched. I was thinking maybe a 215? I don't know much about tires so correct me if I'm wrong.

My wheels finally came
XXR 962 - 17x7 +40 up front and 17x9 +35 in back. The rears actually fit fine but Im running a 5mm spacer just to be safe. The fronts however.. I need to order up some extended lug studs and bigger spacers. The high offset blows but whatever, itll sit really nice regardless. 80mm studs and 20mm spacers is whats needed! Getting tires on them early next week and hopefully driving on them by the weekend!

VERY NICE! Those are definitely my favorite style of wheel from XXR. Are you going to make it to the Kettle Moraine drive Oct. 6th or the meet at Rampelsauce's place on the 20th?
Any idea what the weight of the 17x9 is? Not expecting it to be feather light, just curious.

Thanks! Yeah theyre a basic style of wheel but look so good! If nothing catastrophic happens at the drift event tomorrow then I should be able to make it hahaha. And I'll get the weight of one of the 17x9s for you bud.

WHERE?!?
I would run my car in a drift event.
We better see some pics/videos of this
Columbus 151 Speedway in Columbus, wi! Today from 10-5! $20 covers drifting all day as long as you have the tires! Only rule is you need to have a helmet that covers your whole head, like a motorcycle helmet. And don't worry my go-pro is ready to rock

badass E30!
Thanks! I got a lot of cool pictures from the drift event today and a quick clip my friend took. Didn't get a chance to go-pro because my heater core was leaking and drained the car of coolant after my second run
Still had a lot of fun though! -

Still had a lot of fun though!You would certainly be throwing down some pretty weak drift action with all the violence leaked out of the car.
Post up them media.

Moar updates! Because I enjoy whoring my car out \m/ Front end swapped it with my late model valence and an iS lip I scored off craigslist for $75 brand new in box with new clips! I definitely think it looks a lot better.
And my REAL news! Got my XXR 962s wrapped and on! 17x7 with 20mm spacers and 80mm lug studs up front and 17x9 with 5mm spacers in back. They look much better than the sportmaxx 002's and the 17s look absolutely perfect on it! Couldnt be happier.
Also got my hydro ebrake installed and it works facking amaaazzingg! Drift event tomorrow! Cant wait to try it on a track!
