      Black E30, sounded turbo’d, driving north on 41 by Ballard exit. Have never seen it around here before.

            Red Z3M roadster, big aero wing, battle damaged passenger front fender, meaty fitment. Definitely a track/autoX car.

            Kwik Trip off Ballard in Appleton by North High School.

              I saw this car at the International Autos C&C last year. It appeared to me that he was displaying a racing helmet in back as decoration since it had a stancy setup with stretched tires which did not compute. Would make sense if it was a drift car or perhaps he just has a stants wheel setup for the street? Always nice to see a clownshoe though

                My apologies, it was just a normal 3ZM, not the clown shoe. This was definitely a purpose built track car, function over form.

                    Illinois plate? If so, I saw the same car the other day.

                              That looks really good with those H&Rs!

                                And while I'm at it, I do have a little bit of e30 content to share...

                                I traded some beer for a few bits from @gilber33, one of them being US ellipsoids. After installing a factory airbox, new PS reservoir & hoses, and new throttle cable, I started on dropping the ellipsoids in. Using 9012 bulbs per Daniel Stern's recommended upgrade with slight modification to fit, and found a relayed H4 to 9005/6 conversion harness on amazon to make this extra simple. I'll button this up during the week.

                                Here it sits in my increasingly crowded, unorganized garage. Who has decent looking 4x100 wheels they want to trade or sell cheap?

                                  Just realized I thought this was a different thread. Oops. Guess it counts because I spotted the e30 in my garage and it's still not registered to me. 🤷‍♂️

                                    Yup that was you. I just moved to the cranberry creek apartments behind the cop shop.

                                    How is it riding on the hr springs? I am very close to completing my order on them. Seeing that drop makes me want them even more, that drop looks perfect
