Hi gang, I am considering buying an E30M3 for track use. I found a race prepped car in LA owned by friend's friend named Vladin. He's does club racing. He has...
I was there and I remember the car. In fact my buddy Ralph and I looked at it pretty hard while we were there. We were thinking about replacing our E-Mod 2002...
Peter wrote to me privately before I saw his post here, so I gave him a long reply offline, saying the same things in general (of course). ... I inferred from...
Thanks for all the thorough and honest responses. I think I'm gonna take my time to think about what I want. I don't think I will buy a full on race prepped...
I'm not sure if I posted my last message successfully, so I'll try again. Sorry if this becomes repetitive. Thanks to all who responded to my inquiry. I...
Jim has a lot more experience on the E30 M3 then I have. Despite his and Donna's advice, I purchased an E30 M3 that was club raced for two seasons by Ren...
I agree with Bora (and 5000 others) that an E30 is more fun than an E36. And the fun factor went up again with the race suspension. The question then becomes,...
I have an E30M3, adn while I love it, the maintenance issues are pretty significant. If I had it to do over, especially since I put in new springs, shocks etc...

... Depends on the repair :-) But yeah, an E36 325 is a good choice for the budget-minded. A less high-strung motor, lots of bolt-on stuff (from M3s &...
... Jim, You've pretty much figured it out. All of the reasons you listed. I think I've reached my comfort level on the track with my daily driver (M3/4)....
I think an E30 325i fits what you want more than an E30 M3, I know Kirk Lachman sold his for less than 10K for sure and this was a fully prepped stock class...
... Not all of it good :-) ... Yep, that car was very well maintained. You got a good one, Bora. ... Just the next class up, I-Stock. ... Oh yeah, I forgot to...
... I'm going to be controversial here and throw another car out: an early E36 328i/is or 325i/is They can be had for under $15k, have most of the torque...
I was thinking about leaving Redwood City mid-afternoon. Objective: miss the rush hour thru the Oakland/Berzerkley corridor. I'm pretty flexible. I just don't...
... I was planning on leaving work in San Ramon at 5pm, and then probably heading straight up (680 to 80) I'm staying at the Golden Pheasant. Is pretty much...
You could twiddle your thumbs here in Castro Valley (cheaper beer + GT3!), then we could pick up Peter in San Ramon. Traffic shouldn't be bad on a Monday. ...
WOOhoo...cheap beer AND I get to drive a Porsche GT3 !! Oh, you meant the game :( Well there's still beer. Pick a time, and email me directions. ... in...
... Not controversial at all, I believe I mentioned the same thing. :-) ... Jim Bassett M3 for the street, 325is for the track. Cheaper this way (in theory...
... Where do you guys want to meet up? Drop me a private e-mail (peter<at>guagenti<dot>com) and let me know. I'm right at the Bollinger Canyon Road exit off of...
Yesterday at Thunderhill was great. Looking back after I got home I decided that it was one of the most fun days I've had at the track yet. Couldn't ask for...
... calipers ... That pretty much what happen to the R4S's and the R4's when I used them. However, I was probably down to 25% pad left, and on the Porterfields...
