Another e30 bandwagoner.

[Madhatter]

Hey guys, you may know because of my bus, or the datsun. Probably not, but whatever. I sold The 280zx to get this beast. This e30 was just like every e30 i saw on craigslist. It was one i wanted, but i knew i couldnt have, so just for the hell of it. i put the datsun on Craigslist, i sold in like 2 days. Then i called the guy with the e30 Went to look at it, it has a cold air intake, and a megan racing exhaust with a Greddy tip. To me the exhaust looks ricey, along with the "racing seats" but its whatever. I got it 800 dollars later. my list for the car is.
-Fix center support bearing. (already bought)
-Replace tranny mounts ( already bought)
-Mtech 1 goodies.
-in the distant future some Borbet type A's something cheap for now though.
-Some OEM light projectors.
-Engine chip.
- ///M interior goodies
-Taurus sideskirts.
All this stuff will be stuff that happens over time, it is going to be a daily, so its not going to be a show car. here is the only pic i have now.

So more pics.


Basket weaves. Yo



"Racing" seats, still debating getting rid of them.

FAke Carbon shift knob, soon to be gone





Fart can, looks horrible, but to my surprise, it sounds good.

Ha, little racecar.

From what I can tell this was a steal for 800$ i"ve seen is'es in much worse shape for sale for way more than that, nice find.

I wounder if taking the tip off of the muffler would make it look less ricer. Or maybe moving it... Side exhaust bro.

[Madhatter]

haha, i think it was a steal for 800. i fixed the driveshaft just now, and i am putting it in tomorrow, and im keeping the exhaust for now, i am going to ditch that carbon shift knob, and probably replace it with a ///M shift knob, and i have the tranny mounts to install either tomorrow or the next day.

[NorCalFocus]

I'd ditch those seats. I think some tan leather ones would look tits.

[Madhatter]

yeah i thought that at first, but these are actually comfortable to my surprise. im still not sure what to do yet.

[FunfGang]

Looking good man Though honestly, I'd keep the weaves or try to sell the 17"s.

[Madhatter]

So yous saying ] trade the basket weaves for the 17's and try to sell the 17s to get something else?

[Madhatter]

Small update, got the drive shaft mostly in, then it started raining, so i have to get the 3 i to the tranny in, then find the fucking center support bearing bolts because the P.O took them out, and Only satan knows where they are, pics in like... an hours

[Madhatter]

So, Now i have the driveshaft fixed, and i dont have any pics, so lowering springs are going in next, idk when, but i have them, here is an old pic.

Body seems to be in good shape, I like it but I would definitely lose the fart can and get all original interior, e30s look so much better that way IMO. Door panels look pretty cool tho.

[CubbyChowder]

I would totally buy that for $800

[99sil-teg]

Good to see someone saving an e30, looks prett straight

[stihlayota]

[Madhatter]

thanks guys, and yeah, im keeping the seats, for now atleast.
