That looks lovely, I really like the wheels. If I saw them off a E30 I would probably say na but they look very well on it. Siting very well aswell

Your E30 is awesome mate, a stunning job! Every E30 owner needs to know a skilled welder like that!
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

Cheers fokes.

New number plates are on my list :)

I do like tech 1 spoilers on the right e30's but in my opinion i think this looks better spoilerless, Just trying to keep it looking as simple as possible.

Cars looking great fella!

Be interesting to know how you get on with the bc coilovers, I'm liking the fact they can go low but still retain shock travel through the way the adjust 8)

Looks spot on. I also looked into getting a set Rota's and you have confirmed they can look lush on an E30.

Really easy tbh. just get somone whos good at welding to weld your hubs to the new struts. Apart from that there no differnt to just changing any standard suspension. Im suprised at the ride too, i thought it would be really stiff and i'd feel every little bump in the road but there bang on, nice and firm but you can easily live with driving it for everday use.

Havent updated this for ages so thought i'd let you know how its been going. Since my last update not much has changed the petrol tank started leaking where the filler pipe joins to the tank so had to put a new tank on her ( Worst job ive ever done :x ) Fitted some eibach anti roll bars which in my opinion made a huge difference, really happy with them. Then just before Christmas got this baby back from Gareth

Couldnt be happier with it. I asked him to build it to a higher spec as my intentions are to do lots of drift events in the near future. But didnt want to put a welded diff on as its also my daily drive. The new diff feels really tight, locks up perfectly everytime. Just need to test properly on a full drift day but ive no doubt it will perfect.

If you happen to be reading this Gareth Thanks again mate :D

Will be updating this again soon as next thing is an engine change! just trying to find the right donor :cool:
