may update
-new timing chain tensionner
-painted valve cover gasket
-new sparkplugs
-COP conversion
-oil change
-cleaned intake runners/ICV/vacuum hoses

needs:
-new timing chain, sprockets... :(
-complete powersteering delete (i'm still looking for M14 and M16 screws)
-brake pads (maybe rotors)
-suspension (the oem one is going bad and driving almost feels like ...)
-body work (big time, this car is more of a rustafarian than a classic e30)
-tires
-CAI heat shield and support
-lots of parts restoration, i.e. painting the headlights casing
-wiper linkage
-fan blower
-a lot more....

i like that garage too!! my dad built it a few years ago. now its full of tractors and wood being dried! hopefully he's building another bigger barn where i have reserved a spot for my e30 and another spot for an eventual porsche. as soon as this winter, the e30 will fall into coma and i want to take it all apart, do the body work and install only overhauled components i really need... lightweight! and maybe a better engine (still an m42 but by better i mean, one with real timing gears, good compression and maybe a little better head and bore)
