Still working my way through you thread ;) DJ

Your vision, execution and attention to detail is top notch !! and I like the way you think out side of the box i.e. twin turbo V6

Super sweet build thanks for sharing.

Looking forward to running trails with you at SAS again this year !!

Hopefully I can sneak in a ride with you !!

Thanks, Richard! I should have all the bugs worked out by SAS, so plenty of rides to go around. Looking forward to seeing you there!

So uh.

I make poor financial decisions.

This followed me back to the shop.

1988 BMW e30 325IX. I think roughly 3000 were imported in that model. 2 door, of course.

I know, its not toyota, but everybody loves e30s.
 
Start with the drivetrain and do the cage later After you drive it for awhile. You’ll probably change your mind on that, Cages suck in a street car

The plan is to race this one, so I may be required to have one. We will see. Good advice, though! I appreciate it.

YES! E30s are the bomb! (My other car, is an '89 318i with an M52B25 (2.5L 24valve alloy block motor from the E36) 5 speed and 3.73:1 LSD - 2 door, obviously 🤘)

I love the e30 shape. Everything I own is currently turbo'd, and I kinda want to keep it that way lol. One of my college roomates / coworker is a massive BMW nut and js helping with this build.

I also have a few friends with turbod honda K series, so I can just mooch off of them for tuning lol.
 
Now I'm really drooling !!!

Stop by the shop next time you are by grand junction. We are about 45 mins away. Collection here is pretty similar to the heritage museum lol.
