Glad to see Dan's motor went to a forum member! Sounds great too!!
Yeah! Ironically enough a friend of mine sent me his Craigslist ad at like 3 in the morning one day as a joke telling me to buy it. Had my m20 not blown up I never would have gotten it haha. I've never been in a swapped e30 before and my mind is completely blown. I owned a 320hp evo 8, and this car is more fun than that.

Absolutetly man! I used the spare diff that came with the car, which im pretty sure is a 2.79 out of an '84-85. Which I guess makes sense because the car is an 84. But I ended up welding it and it's completely amazing. I didn't bother trying to take the LSD off of the other car haha.

Thats not frickin good! spray some Flex Seal on that biznatch, i'd like to check it out on Saturday.
Youll still see it man! I dont think the crack is bad, because I drove about 15 minutes to work from the point that I THINK I hit it, and theres only a few drops. But thats a few drops too many hahaha. Ive never heard of Flex Seal but I'll have to check it out. There may be hope for it! I just dont want to pull the motor so soon, you know?

Looks like I might be coming Saturday to check this thing out. Super excited! *im the one he mentioned with the turbo e21*

just be aware that it wasnt some rare incident, hits like that are going to happen all the time. i took a shot probably every time i drove somewhere unfamiliar

Was kidding about the flex seal, but I have used JB Stik putty in a pinch on a friends oil pan leak.

That's crazy. My car is basically on the ground too, so something's going to have to change. At this rate I'll be doing 4 oil pans a month in it!

Oh god that's flex seal? Lmao when I read your comment I was like "that sounds familiar but idk where I've seen it". Sarcasm via text sucks hahah. I already have a new pan ordered up.

i'd offer you my skid plate again, but someone else bought it already. i cant say enough good things about that brand of plates.

What brand was it again, Dan? I should probably look into picking one of those up haha.
I'm also looking to sell/trade my wheels. $400obo or looking for 16/17's with higher offset.

Car is looking fantastic Jake! Thanks again for letting us stop by and check things out. You got a hell of a setup at the shop there. I limped the e21 back to the house safely on 3 cylinders too.
Turned out it was VERY badly corroded wires at the cap end. Replaced the plugs and wires and she runs like she was before again. -

I thought for sure my skid plate would have worked. After a day of sitting there still isnt that much oil there though? It cant be too bad.
