OK...it's been a while since I've been hardcore-active on here. As some of you know my very early eta coupe was totaled in an accident back in June. She's in a dumpster new, sans the suspension, driveshaft, interior, and a few electronic components... (contact me if you're looking for parts in those categories)
My new venture is a pretty well-optioned 1989 325is purchased from the owner of Sportscar Restoration in Plainville CT. Very clean car, and actually was brought into the US in 1991 (with paperwork indicating so!).
The brakes just failed (rear calipers stuck), so on the docket in the next two weeks is:
-remanufactured rear calipers
-S/S brake lines all over (bought them used)
-brembo cross-drilled rotors on all 4 corners
-treehouse racing CAB's (and alignment to M3 spec)
-bilstein sports
-H&R springs
-possible replacement of driveshaft and center support bearing (depends on how bad things look underneath)
So I'll keep y'all posted :)
BTW if anyone is looking for the front strut assemblies from my 89, let me know. The strut/spring assemblies from my 84 are going on the 89 since they already have the H&R/bilsteins installed, so if you want my 89's with stock iS springs and factory struts (they still perform decently well) let me know.
