E30 Zone

im back in Edinburgh....don't know how to change the location....

Michelin pilot sport s..... or uniroyal rainsport3's....work well in big power rwd….

fuzzy27scar2vj6.jpg 326.jpg found some old ones of mine....not sure why its been added so many times though.....powered by ford Cosworth and black wheels befor eyou could get them on every basic corsa…. :cry: it wasn't the first Cosworth powered e30 but I believe it was the first Cosworth powered t...

I drive with the radio off just to hear the engine even clearer....I was always a turbo guy but now im a convert of big cc V8 naturally aspirated engines....power at any revs and any speed,,,,,

an average of 16mpg is harsh ….stretched my budget to buy one but been looking at them for a couple of years.....glad I bought it I just hope nothing breaks....
had it up to 23.4mpg on a motorway cruise at 80mph /1500rpm.....almost economical....

my other recent old cars.....A210 evolution with AMG pack and 2.1 litre engine......great car that handled like a gokart…..and my 3 litre turbo diesel with AMG pack , 4 pot Brembo etc and 270bhp....

I won't let you forget about testing your viscous fan with your hand

still got the scars to prove it....

there we go....510bhp and 670nm....

current car....Mercedes C63 AMG....what an unbelievable piece of engineering these are.....

hello all....a browse shows mostly new member names......some will never let me forget about my cyclist incidents though.....

im still with german but these days its Mercedes.....I cant see how to upload a pic...…?
nowadays its 6.3 litres and 510 finest AMG horses.....

seen a couple of E30's kicking about locally and it reminded me of this place, locally as in back in sunny Scotland...not melbourne but ive no idea how to change that....its looking a bit slicker than the last time I was on.....

Reverb....? Swagger....? I must be getting old.

indeed..
Would you?

no. not for upgrading the brakes to others available within the range.

to commute into work? its more reliable? its less rusty and polluting? its less embarrasing than driving a 20 year old basic entry level car whilst smugly thinking your driving a classic?
need i go on?

no, do you wave at people on other buses if your getting public transport into work?

One day, we might even give a flying one what you think. But, we don't.

no, thatll never happen. but as usually the only busy threads on here are the ones where people get noised up.
that tells me the op is talking sh1te.

yeah but you only have 123 posts so your opinions doesnt matter.
passionfords my favourite site, it gets quite heated and abusive on there sometimes and it makes for a far more interesting site.
and since i have so many posts my opinions final.

ive never understood the statement where for some reason people should respect the work thats gone into it even if it is a pile a stuck on tat. if its scrap its scrap and if people ask for opinions on the internet they really shouldnt be surprised or offended if not everyone pats you on the back to ...

if you dont give a sh1te what peole think what the fook are you moaning about?

yes its happened to me with the traffic police but with my cosworth powered celica, not my e30.

i wouldnt say theyre any worse than any other car of the same age.

What's the turning circle like on that, do you think......? :mad: id have thought as long as you can get full lock itll be just the same as any other e30? the speedo might be a bit out though with the bigger rolling circumference. either way its way out of proportion. imo 17's are big enough for an...

i have no add ons or extras as previous experience shows you still get stiffed by the insurance companies regardless.

a d reg 320? probably a couple of hundred quid on a good day.

it was worth less when it was 4 years newer than it is now? really?

the ford cosworth engine.

Discuss

yes i can and indeed did over 2 years ago. i cant see myself ever owning another to be honest.

its an old e30, hole is probably right.

why does he think anyone cares enough to watch that bore fest for half an hour?

10psi on a relatively otherwise standard 2.5?

depends on how much turbod power you have and how hard you drive it. iirc uprated discs. pads and fluid with the goodridge hoses was fine for my erratic driving style but prolonged abuse and you could feel them starting to fade.

i remember a few years back when you had to pay about £30 for a scrappy to take a car.
i dont think the real weight/size of a car makes much difference, ive scrapped several various cars/small vans and coincidentally every ones weighed exactly 1150kg on the scales.

that thought sends a shiver down my spine.
in fact id probably rather take my chances by asking a local axe welding mad eyed tramp than most on here.

£260? i didnt realise prices had went up so much recently. a couple of years ago it used to float around the £120-£150 for an average car.
