Yeah Im pretty pumped. I went through the paperwork and found that it has the dinan chip and a few other maintenance things already done I was going to have to do.

Some pics after I got it home.

beautiful car

Johnny D · 12-15-2012, 12:25 AM

Last Autocross of the year, really wet but had a blast

Since that vid I have started working on the car. Cleaned up the hose mess under the intake manifold. Ordered a Mark D chip to test out instead of the Dinan chip. Cleaned up the rear diff leaks and flushed the coolant system.

tigermack · 12-15-2012, 02:06 AM

Should have bought a e36 as an autocross car. lol

tigermack · 12-15-2012, 02:15 AM

He paid $3300 with 204k...

I disagree, for the type of autocross that goes on in Little Rock and the small parking lots, the e30 will be better. I drove both before making this decision.

You can buy a very rough car for $1k and put another $2-3k into it. The prices range from $1k for a beater all the way up to $7-10k for a motor swap or turbo e30 in perfect shape. Honestly, you should be able to find something at any budget in the e30. I've always loved them and I'm the type that likes very light and nimble over fast so I went with the 318is with the m42 DOHC 4 cyl.

I paid $3300 like Tigermack stated, but the car is already set up with springs, struts, swaybars, a chip, and medium case LSD.

The car has 200k+ miles, but the motor, transmission, suspension and diff do not. Well worth the price in my opinion.
