So, after looking for a fun project for quite I while, I found an E28. Went out to see it, found out it needed some easy work on the breaks. I offered the guy 300 under his asking price and took it.

The T5R is still up in the air, but I'm deciding to save my money for this now, gotta go order some coilovers pretty soon. And the 60R will be down the road.
