    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

                      Going over the bridge in Green Bay yesterday, I got passed by a clean E36 M3 sedan. The 350z in front of me gave him the bird as he passed him too, wasn't even speeding?

                            Definitely was that car, I remember seeing the silver skirts. I saw it go by in the other direction in the dark, only caught that is was a e34 with m sport bumpers.

                              540i M-Sport though, Just as cool without s38 maintenance.

                                  Saw a silver z8 on the Stoughton Rd. frontage road the other day at Habanero’s, I nearly snapped my neck on the double take. It was unfortunately already gone by the time I was able to wrap back around to it.

                                        Spotted an early model Alpine E30 tastefully modded on what looked like E34 weaves headed westbound on 94 through Brookfield around 5p.

                                        Also spotted a phoenix yellow E46 m3 vert this morning in Pewaukee on stock 19’s

                                          I've seen this one quite a few times over the years between Pewaukee and Oconomowoc. Fugly.
