My 318is

[trojen]

I've been a member for a few years now but never posted.

I thought my first should be some pics of my 318is, tell me what you think.









I hope the pics work, this is my 1st time!

An iS in red is always a winner.

Needs a bit of lower though, is it on stock suspension??

[IvanB]

me like

[johnl320]

Very nice, IMO don't lower it any more.

[trojen]

The suspension is totally standard and is still surprisingly tight for a 20+ year old car.

I was thinking about a Eichbach Pro kit (-30mm) and refreshing the bushes as a matter of course during the winter months.

What other options have I available without going too low?

[Sawyer_E30]

EBay coil overs are quite reasonable at the moment?

[trojen]

So i hear! aren't they what are used in BTCC

[yung-gun]

60 mm all round ftw. But it still looks the sex as it is mate!

lol yes they are a high spec motorsport mod

mines dropped about 70-80 mill all round but its not to everyones taste,thats on billies and custom pig tails at the back

personnally i wouldnt drop that any more than -30, a good set of springs would be a way to do that if your shocks are still decent

Very Nice

[BATTS91]

Very nice but does anyone know why the doors fade diffrently to the rest of te car on a red e30 as mines the same!!

[Jimbob]

Lovely finish to the paint and the black trim!

[trojen]

Cheers for the comments Guys.

Batts91, the door is the one thing that really annoys me no matter how much i polish you can still see it in some lights.

I wonder if all brilliant reds are the same?

[chewy320]

Red is awful for fading. I have the same and doors and mirrors are pretty much pink. Sucks!

i had eibach on my 318is, wasnt too low, and the drive was superb, i drove a standard is, and the eibach was much nicer drive

also an rpm strut brace made a nice difference and feel

car looks nice, personly i think with your red/black color scheme (which looks good) an mtech 1 rear spoiler black rubber/red insert would look much nicer and compliment the overall styling and scheme of the car
