Hey Nick. Did you ever sort your sump issue? I'm having mine TiG welded for extra clearance as we speak - I'll bang a picture up once it's back from the shop. Car's looking smashing, by the way.

[TheNeek]

old thread, yeah yeah. What you got going on with the car now?

I'm going to paint it white

Wow, you and your girl make a cute team

Could you please educate me on the wood spacers? were those just a template, or... did you actually roll on those?

The wood was just a mock up to see what fitment was like with old set of wheels. I never used it.

I'm almost sad its over and finished. Really great work and final outcome.

Nothing is ever done.

Great looking car...

Do you mind if i ask what suspension set up you've got on it?

LEDA 24 way adjustables 2.25"ID coils in back 2.5" up front.

Hey Matt. I raised the motor, but am still interested in shortening my pan. Did you shorten the pick up as well?

[White325is]

Now now, Thats crazy talk.
Seriously, Im so pissed off with mine right now. I would like to paint it a different color.

[ChrisVRsix]

Amazing work, great shots and a great build.

....I almost shit when i saw the wood spacers but like you just said used for a mockup only.

[vincent black shadow]

Oh Man...

Amazing, impressive.........astonishing!!!!!!

A week ago I found your car by chance. One week later I'm obsessed in my own private search of an E21 in order to do something similar.

Every day I drive my Euro S50 engined E30... I can't avoid the feeling that I'm commiting some kind of adultery.

Greetings from Spain.
