I was cleaning up my computer and i saw these pics of my old sport, which i am sorry i sold. And i wonderd if any one has seen it, i sold it to a guy from PRESTON. on the phone he said he had a few e30s inc an e30 m3,
it has been a few years so not sure if he moved it on to someone else. Anyone seen it in preston floating about?. She was not just a looker, she went pretty well to with a M52B28 Iron Block M50 Inlet BBTB ITG Maxogen US S52 M3 Cams S3.25.

Did you get the engine from Ant by any chance? Looks sweet btw, I remember you had a black Tech 1 with those 18s on didn't you? :)

@Bhups: yes i am mad for selling it, and very sorry.

@Jimbob: Ant fitted it the engine belonged to Dan. The black tech 1 in my avator yes thats the same 18's.

@Appletree: i replace it with other inferior cars.

@Ah: thanks mate, looks like its not on the road at the mo. :(

@bimmaman: same here mate i dont car what people say about them, i have had my 18"s on all my e30s they drive alot better than the wobbly 17's.

Depending on the condition of it now, i would buy it back right now.

Not really, it had bilstien shocks and PI springs 60fnt 40rear, drive was a bit crushy at times.

but they drive better on my H&R cup kit at the moment,some times i forget i am riding on 18s :) .

Not surprised, the price for 18s is pretty crazy, there is a guy that keeps offering 500 for mines the way they are 8O
