Just want to say that a mate of mine has had some alloys nicked off his Pulsar and the trail leads back to Evo Motor Sport. Apprently they were nicked to order.

With that in mind I won't be going anywhere near that place (if its true!, and i've no reason not to believe it)

Is this the evo motorsport garage behind iceland, in the alleyway in boscombe??

I just picked up my new 318is and this morning went out to start my car and the bugger won't start, the battery is ok, i can only think the immobiliser has gone rogue on me. :cry: I've got 2 stickers on on the window, one says sigma alarm the other says gemini. I've unplugged the signa alarm (i thin...

i just got my 318is in dark blue (must be lazer blue i think) and i can get 50 odd miles from a fiver!!

Last car was a 325 sport so 50 miles from a fiver is great!!

Good to hear,

cheers for the info guys

Any 318is owners out there know the best places to buy parts for a 318is?? No problems with mine (touch wood!!!) but i'm just curious incase i need to replace anything in the future. I know about german and swedish and eurocarparts, but i'm wondering if there is anywhere else in the uk i should know...

What would you guys go for???

Get the impression most of you have zone chips.

Want to chip my 318is and need to know your thoughts.

With the zone chips i hear you can specify wild or not (is this right) and not wanting to sound like a chump but what differences does this make?

Cheers

So is that a yes to going for the m3 running gear??

Looking to upgrade my new toys handling and i've been told that stripping out its running gear and replacing it with the running gear from an e30 m3 is the way to go. Is this right?? Will this be better than fitting a H&R cup kit?? Also i wanted to fit a LSD , will any one do or is there a specific ...

Cheers for advice fellas, now to raid the piggy bank

Cheers for the advice guys.

One question, is there a specific order to the mods, eg do i go for the exahust first then the chip??

Or is this not relavant??

Thanks again guys

Hi guys, Just got given a 1990 318 is and just wondering what mods if any i should go for?? Are boost valves worth it?? HAd one on my old 325 sport and i felt it made a difference, much smoother acceleration. Is it worth it on a 318 is?? Had a search through the forums on the subject of induction ki...

I'm in bosombe, so wimborne is pretty close, whats the place called???

Just got given a 1990 318is and although i think its running fine (its just been MOT'd) I want to take it in to a BMW specialist garage to get it given a through check up as from what i've read if it goes wrong your fucked. I know a few of you guys are based around here and wondered if you know any ...

Hi guys, wondered if any of you can help me with this. Is it possible to insure a 325 sport under classic car insureance?? If so from who and on average what are you paying?? Is there a certain criteria that needs to be met??? Badly need your help, if i don't i'll be forced to buy a nissan primera g...

In what year did they change from mk1 to m2 and is the difference really that noticable??

I had a 325 sport 87 a few years ago so would a 1991 model (which is all that i can find in good nick!!) going to be noticable slower?

Thanks for setting me straight on that guys

Cheers Beemer Lad,

when you say a bit pokier do you mean faster overall or quicker acceleration??

I know that when the 325 sport came out it had 171BHP but I've been recently told that somewhere along the line it had a power hike to around 190BHP. Is this true? and if so was this done when they brought the sport out with the M tec 2 bumpers? Or is this just a confusion with the 190BHP that the E...

one of my close friends has a degree in engineering and know cars well, but i don't think he's worked on a 325 sport, just wondered if there is anything major i need to be aware of?

Hi fellas, i had a great response to my last thread. A lot of really helpful info much appreachated.

I'd got for a 325 sport.

And if i had it my way i'd have an e34 m5 engine shoehorned in to the engine bay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to all who posted replies, you've been a great help. After the comments on replacing a busted head on the 318IS i'm now able to justify once more a 325 sport winkeye Just curious though, is a replacement engine for a 318IS easy to get?, What was the cost? As for fuel economy I can remember ge...

Hi fella's, i'm looking for some honest opinions from people in the know (you guys!)
