So after a year apart she is back! Should never have let it go..
It's now been treated to all new Bilstien B4 with Apex springs, all bushes replaced with polybushes, all new brakes (Pagid fast road) new steering arms, wishbones ect.

Also today topped all that off with a new set of Toyo T1-R's

And a wet vac!

Back in an E30, they just fit like a glove. I'm sure it's not just because it's familiar, an e30 just fits me better than any other car I've ever driven.

Small update
Engine cover was missing two of the little caps! Plus new air filter as they are cheaper to buy new than bugger about cleaning

This weekend fitted a short shift using the wiki for advice. What a great mod! Totally different feel to the car, I'm guessing that losing the big rubber thing from the middle of the original gear lever helps no end. Not much point posting pics though...
Also fitted pressed metal number plates, might get a snap of them, they look nice, very retro
