<E30> Is it safe to post real car questions again? Need friendly advise

I felt the need to reply if for no other reason than the Mark's (The guy
who posted this, not to be confused with any other Mark) last name.  Not
often I see my name on anybody else.

Errr... I think you'll find it's BL/SS. Stands for Ben Liaw/Short Shift.

Sharking? There ain't no question mark in sharking! When? Now! Go to it. Do
it before the exhaust. You won't be sorry. With regards to exhaust, unless
you like lots of noise, stay away from triflo. Otherwise, what are you
looking for? Mellow burble? Banshee wail? Howl of the Undead? Fruity Blat?
Sustained Megafart? Furious bark? You can get any one of these depending on
brand.  I like the Sustained Megafart but then I'm anal agressive (the
antithesis of anal retentive). Or at least my wife thinks so.

Can't help you with the wheels. Perhaps the honda digest?
