Allow me to 're-introduce myself!

Hi All - Previously on here as bad_ass_mk4 from ages before the forum got revamped!

Had a 318i LUX that became internet famous (after i sold it) with motorhole on Pistonheads https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=1296643

(My For sale pic)

I've since been the proud deliberator of a 318is in various shades of pink that i've owned for the last 5 years and partially restored (inbetween falling in and out of love with the thing - deciding whether to honour its origins or turn it into a v8 drift monster)

(Pic from the day i picked it up)

I've since decided to keep it as a 318is should be - 4 banger baby. :cool: and make it a fast road track car for enjoying on the weekend! To which end i need a few things as i sold the original engine and gearbox a while back!..

So if any of you lovely chaps have a 5 spd out of a 318is or an exhaust manifold for an M42 (or an M42/M44 for that matter) then that would be a massive help :)

You can fit an M40 getrag 240, you’d just need the matching prop shaft and you’re good to go!

I did wonder about this - excellent! Thanks for the heads up :banana:

(really wish i'd kept the IS box now but hey-ho)
