ZF trans swap completed. Feels good, all gears working smoothly :) I also decided to replace the resonator section of the Bimmerworld race exhaust with the straight pipe section and remove some unneeded items to lose more weight. Ready for track season, it starts now.

Great thread and very well documented build!
I've been at several of the same events in your photos. And the green and red e36 GTS2 cars, pictured at Summit Main, are good friends.
It's a small world.
When is your next event? We will be at the TrackDaze one on Jefferson and NASA at Dominion this month.

Will definitely say hello at the next event.
I'll most likely be crewing for my brother in-law at the next cca event on Main in May, he is doing comp school and could use the help.
Although I really want to drive the e30 that weekend.. My first cca instructor always gives me hard time about not signing up, he has a thing for the e30 and wants to drive it lol. You might know him, Dereck Blinken with the black e30 m3.

Derek is just a small bit in the crazy side, on and off track :)
What class are you planning to race in?
We do track support for a few GTS2 cars and are considering maybe building our own gts car, just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Have a few too many unfinished projects to take in a new one.

Lmao, yep that's Derek!
I am still undecided as far as classing, but I will either do Bmw Club Racing or GTS. We also do track support for a few cars and I may take up a offer in a Spec E30 some time too. I was originally thinking Gts2, but I don't really want to add a couple hundred pounds to the car or lose power using restrictors. I have been researching this a lot recently. Gts3 is a option with car as it sits but I know I would be slaughtered lol. Before I add aero or any other mods I will try to decide. I will probably only do 2-3 races a season to start, and continue instructing & TT in between. Look forward to meeting you in May. See you there.

Fresh 255 Nitto Nt01's arrived to mount on my TR Mt1r wheels, and I will move the 245 Hankook slicks over to the TR C2 wheels. I plan to use the 255 for Hpde & 245 for time trials (less points).
I am excited to check out Watkins Glen next week for the first time. I am going with my job as crew for a endurance race team. Hopefully get a few laps in while I am there. Pics will be posted :)https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0429464c8b.jpg

Good stuff! Post up a video if you're able to get out on the track...Watkins Glen is high on my list of tracks to drive. I needs more time and $$!
