Re: 1990 Malachite Green 2 door 320i M20b25 converted.

It does look well!


Thats the plan, I have detailing gear so will give it a good going over once the weather gets better!

Re: Tips for pulling my E30 out of storage after a year?

Re: I've lost the keys to my Alpina wheels

Re:

Rockers, I had one snap the other day and noticed that the snapped one had worn down, I'd replace them all, 10.50 each from GSF, I'd assume that OE would be double that but the non OE look to be better cast than the OE ones Cam seals should come with head set, there are often valve seals in there too
