Hi everyone...

I've joined you all in the world of E30 with a 318is...

Got a few little niggles to iron out but safe to say...I'm in love already!

Why I didn't go E30 sooner I don't know!

Welcome aboard

Seems a pretty original specimen you have there. Did it come with the splits?

Yeah, the BBS RM102's and the original RZ's. It's been lowered 40mm all round.

Other than that, it's pretty standard as you say!

Got a few plans for it though mind :D

Sorry guys, totally forgot about this thread!

Yeah Sweep, it's from there...thanks for your help on the phone today mate.

Having a few issues with the head as an update for you all, so the plan at the moment is to get that sorted along with a few other bits. Then who knows?!?!
