Saw your Dinan M3 featured in Bimmer. It was awesome. Hate to learn that you have sold it. Can't wait to see what you will do to the 318is.

87e30: that is pure sex. i LOVE your wheels/suspension setup. And not to mention the rest of the car that is flawless.

to the OP:

first thing: do the "mess under the intake delete" here: http://www.m42club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2742

all that shit:


It simplifies things a bunch. Also a common wear part is the timing chain tensioner. It takes like 10 minutes to replace and costs like $20 or something.

Do the Downing Atlanta supercharger. I think they are back on the market unless something changes recently.

Thanks guys. I was reading and the MT2 side skirts are NLA :(

Yes I plan to keep the M42. I just want do that cool euro look. It looks so clean and correct.

87e30 thats a nice ride you got. Guys feel free to post pics of cars with the mt2 kit and OEM 318is side skirts.

Holy shit, my jaw just hit the floor. Those euro weaves? Fuck, that thing is nice. How does 10k cash sound?

:rofl: Sorry guys. That isn't my car, didn't mean to make it look that way. That is Edris' car. It is really really nice in person though, I can vouch for that. I was just trying to make an effective argument for proper tire size. ;) Those ARE euro weaves and the car is riding on a full ground control coilover kit. His name is optimusprime something or other around r3v but he's rarely on.

proper tire size is 205/55/R15-- I do feel on a lowered car the 205/50 looks nicer.
heres my Tech I car on 195/50/15 snow tires
and my old turbo M tech II car- original BMW kit.

euro weaves

does anyone know of a company that sells euro weaves or a wheel that is similar?
