    Learning a lot from this video, thank you for showing how you jacked it up. My ramps will help a lot with my new gas tank installation

    Put on the nuts on the subframe bolts and give them a good smack. They will pop up into the car under the seat. This way it's easier to remove the crap that is left of the bushing. Had the same problem on mine.

    I believe you can leave the e-brake handle on the chassis. You just need to put the handle in the down position and fully remove the tensioner nuts. Then the whole cable slides out. That’s how it worked on my e36 318ti, which as far as I know has the same setup as the e30.

      Oh damn I didn't realize that, I figured it was easy to pop it off, just to clear things up, luckily it's just 3 bolts on the interior

    Did you ever show a drive video of the car?? I looked it couldn’t find it.

      Hey man! No I never got a full drive video, after contacting the tuner in the area he said he was a months out, he took 2 months to get back to me, I decided to just keep going with things, while I'm looking for another tuner, so I figured I should just keep things rolling for the channel

      @@ProjectRacecar2 IMHO, keep it NA. A turbo will only complicate things and add weight, heat and cost. Do what you will, but if I were you I’d try and mimic the original M3 EVO that they raced in DTM back in the early ‘90s. 238 HP/177 ft lbs TQ.
      Anyway, I’ve enjoyed your videos.

      @@chuckcribbs3398 yeah I have gone back and forth with the turbo vs na, Ive always wanted a turbo e30, and since I have the extra parts I would love to build another k swapped e30, so I will likely do that for the future and I will definitely keep the n/a parts if the turbo is too much
