hey guys!

i've been on e30tech for a few years and good friends with gooch! i've driven his car and i'll tell you it is a nice ride. i used to have a 325i/s which was pretty modded but had to get rid of it to get a no worries kinda daily driver. i picked up a dschwarz 318i sedan, with of course, an m42. it wasnt my first choice, i just wanted a facelift dschwarz sedan to built up (i have a stroked 2.7i being built) but i figured what the hell get it running and turbo the m42 for the learning experience (budget setup).

here's the cars:

daily driver: 03 gti 1.8t on coilovers, sways, 20th oe parts etc

Hopefully it was the alternator causing the issues...now turbo that sucker. And no love for the Super ETA?

Nice lookin' woman you got there ;)

the e30 runs and actually very well! as long as the alt was the only problem i can begin to build it. i wanna keep it movable for as long as i can before teardown and buildup

never any love for the supereta. i took its heart and soul and now it will be crushed and made into brake pads.

she's a keeper :D
