Every mod you can do to a 318is

Angel eye lights, bodykits, rimz, plug wires, and paint interior pieces. Thats about it for performance.


Seriously, read around the site a little bit and search. This is a dumb question.

[iamsam]

definitely do the research. look around in the Member's Rides section, and read what their mods are.

Uh... He's from Australia :???:


Here's some stuff for your wish list:









Sorry.
Like some have said, search around and see what others have done.
Of course everyone here is in America, so some parts will be harder to source, but there is a wealth of crazy rare Euro shit in Australia. The best things I like to see on an e30 are period correct, European, usually very hard to find (and of course very expensive...). Unfortunately there is no catalog full of body kits, lights, performance parts and the likes that fulfills the above description.
However even though all your friends with civics and lancers may have NFI what your doing, The people who matter (most importantly yourself) will truly know and apreciate a tastefully modified classic 80's BMW.
As for performance gains... Turbo, or swap. Pick one...
Otherwise just pick yourself a nice exhaust and stick with that. (and for gods sake no CIA)

Hi guys, i just bought a E30 318IS, its a 1991 model etc..
I want to mod this thing, what are all the mods you can do to these cars? I've heard of the Heater plate removal etc..

Your help would be very much appreciated.

Cheers All

I'd suggest an h35 front airdam, Mr. Hartge. Maybe USDM Front/Rear bumper set. I'm sure that would set you apart form the Aussie crowd.

Look up a member on here named kenika. He will teach you the proper way to rebuild parts for longevity.

Bleh,
1. Springs, shocks, sways (use reinforcement plates for rear sways)
2. Chip, Exhaust and lightweight flywheel (awesome upgrade, m20 flywheel is a cheap mod)
3. Sport seats (not sure if those where standard on oz cars), Mtech2 wheel, Mtech2 shifter
4. Some bling head unit that lights up red (like a nakamichi)
5. 15-16" BBS rims always look TITS on these cars
6. Mtech2 Body kit

7. Injector swap to something 4 pintle
8. Turbocharging ???

You should think about suspension components, these will really help your car tear it up in the twisties.

I love the 318is btw, I drove my friends 89'. Pure fun...
