    List of my mods

    Here is what I have done so far. I have yet to get into motor or cosmetics. The car is a DD and trackday toy.

    1987 325is

    Changed every bushing for urethane
    H&R springs
    Bilstein dampers
    Kmac front adjustable shock mounts
    IE billet rear shock mounts
    22mm front bar
    19mm adjustable rear bar
    Z3 2.7 turn lock to lock steering rack
    new tie rods
    15" Euroweaves with Toyo T1R's, 225/50-15
    25mm master cylinder
    stainless brake lines
    rebuild and powder coated the calipers (yeah they are blue, but so are the calipers on the new Ruf CTR)
    Axxis ultimate pads
    drilled rotors
    Z4 shifter
    Corbeau seats
    IO port street/sport 1/2 hoop with removeable harness bar (arrives next week)
    Steam cleaned the interior

    Well that's it for now. Like I said motor and cosmetics will be next.

      I like your approach to modding. Most people mod ass-backwards.

      I still want to check out your car sometime time permitting. Will you be @ the BFc hooters meet?

                        Hey Reynard,

                        Glad to see you got your 325is. Seems you and I have similar taste in cars.
                        One note/recommendation. Bigger sways warrant reinforced sway bar mounts - especially on a 20 yr old E30.

                        I've got T1-Rs on 16" wheels too - like them a lot.

                        Cheers,
                        Joe

                          I like it. The pedal effort is higher, but it is much firmer. I can modulate the brakes better. For me it was a worthwhile mod.

                            Should have mentioned. The bars came with the reinforced mounts.
