Bingo... now your getting the idea, run it till it dies, then strip and sell it. im still waiting to hear about an M50 E30 so if that turns up anytime soon this car will be short lived in my possession.Andyboy wrote:Head gasket swap? If it's a £350 serving of Rice, you don't repair it when it becomes boiled Rice. I bet even now one of those would break to 5-600 quid if you're patient.
Ironically i have just been offered exactly the car i was looking for 
An M50 powered E30 2dr so i mite be looking to pass the Supra on even quicker than before. so if anyone wants to give me £400 for the supra and il even put six months tax on it! it has a brand new ticket and had a service, windscreen and exhaust recently and the engine sounds solid as an ox

Actually this one is just fine, engine is sweet as a nut. gear box is great too. sorted the front suspension now! only problem with it is the centre rubber on the prop shaft and the paint is really tatty (good candidate for matte black and a tramp drifter) especially with the LSDAndyboy wrote:Hmmm. Bit dodgy on head gaskets those old Supras.
ive decided its now the car for me tho i want another E30 so its for sale
£400 with six months tax and 12 months MOT

boiled rice!!
On the contrary, the turbo models were very dodgy to say the least in terms of H/G, but the N/A are a solid inline 6 top to bottom with very few motor issues if maintained reasonably well. Problem is still in its DNA but can certainly be avoided, which I find the turbo owners can't really attest to lol.Andyboy wrote:Hmmm. Bit dodgy on head gaskets those old Supras.
One of those shares the garage next to my E30 and E36 M3. Albeit ours is a very special Supra, not to be compared to many if any examples you might find out on the road currently. Also have a MKii Supra in our household, motorwise it is very very similar to my '90 325iSport IMO. Big fans of the inline six here lol
. I'll see about posting some pics.-

Basically it wasnt me, id just fitted a BOV, and Induction kit to the baby, bro went for a run ended up chasing an integra, got pulled, car was impounded for a night and the cops/staff at the impound must have ripped the shit out of it, now it sounds like a washing machine 
Such a shame its a rare model, MK3 Digital dash with aero top... 2.0ltr twin turbo lump! Even tho its an Auto its fun!

Yeah but if you can get evidence then sue the b4stards. I'd be over there with my shotgun blowing them away
I like your thinking though , What are you thinking of putting in?

Gibson, I don't suppose you fancy having a e30 325i touring as part payment for it do you?
It is red and ok looking, it has a good engine and box, LSD, 15" bbs', no rear trim and most importantly it is registered scrapped so cant be used on the road. Spares car only but as you can see with diff wheels and engine there is over £400 worth of bits and Id be prepared to chuck some on top as well.
