I picked up some boxes of used e30 parts from Merl earlier this week, and this non-e30 bit turned up in one of the boxes. I'm guessing an m50 throttle body?? It has a BMW logo stamp and part number 1730363 on it. I checked back with Merl and he doesn't want it. Seems to be in good shape but not something I would have a use for. Any interest here?

Anyone have an e30 front brake caliper bracket they no longer need? I had a caliper guide bolt seize and break off in the bracket on my 318is on an attempted removal. Yeah, I was stupid. I can order one from RockAuto but figured I'd do a quick ask here first. Thanks, Rich

Great deal!

Lucked out and found one at Autozone 102nd and Silver Spring in MKE.

By any chance does anyone have a crank position sensor for a late model e30 325i? If so call 262-389-0080. Thanks, Rich

Anyone signed up for the Monday school at Blackhawk? If so stop by and say hello.

I've got this up on Craigslist but just in case anyone might be interested, or knows someone who might be, I'm listing here. Description: OMP 6-point harness with camlock, used for only one race season (2021), FIA tag valid through December 2025. Harness consists of: 3" clip-in pull-up lap belts, 2" clip-in sub belts with attached camlock, 2" shoulder belts (KEY these are for use with HANS only) can be set up for clip-in or wrap around mounting. Shoulder belts expand from 2" to 3" at the camlock attaching point. All mounting bolts and clips that came with are included. Asking $175 obo on CL. Reason for selling is that the pull-up lap belt adjusters didn't work well with my seat in the e30 cockpit. Replaced them with a new pull-down RaceQuip set.

Saw this, pricey but maybe room to negotiate with the seller? https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/pts/d/oconomowoc-bmw-e30-seats-door-cards/7486733891.html

I'm looking for a used Pit Pal cabinet to reduce to reduce tote clutter in the enclosed race trailer. New can get pricey and used are hard to find. Figures I'd just toss a WTB here just in case someone has ideas. https://pitpal.com/cabinets/?msclkid=f10f8762c7d311ecbd7737a242d096a0 maybe something like a model #323 or?

Racing my e30 down at Blackhawk that weekend (un)fortunately. 😁 Will miss seeing folks at the picnic. TJ has been doing a great job and the new location has plenty of room. More BMWs that turn out the better!

Agreed, great idea and would be useful for accessing the Koni's in my e46. Looking forward to see how this develops.

If you can't find one let me know. I may have a horn ring one from a Momo hub in a parts bin somewhere.

Great video. Good luck with the sale, and here's hoping for bidding wars!

Exhaust removal can be a pain. Start spraying down assorted exhaust bolts/nuts now with penetrant of choice.
