I am a member of a local club and always hear about this forum. Decided I would jump in. I have owned this car for close to 7 years and there has been something about it ever since. Always puts a smile to my face. Here are some stats and some pics. Not perfect by any means, but a great summer car and always gives me something to do.
Car and Year: 1991 E30 BMW 318is 5 Speed LSD 168K
Engine: M42 16v DOHC 1.8 (Dinan chipped, Schrick cams, Bavarian Autosport ignition wires, Full Synthetics, K&N Intake, Straight pipes, No cat, Flowmaster exhaust, Custom headers)
Chassis: Bilstein HD's, M-technic springs and control arms, 14" original BBS basketweaves and 17" Sport Design rims, Front strut and Rear strut brace
Body Styling: Kamei front spoiler, Racing Dynamics side skirts and rear apron, Euro smilies and fogs, Euro plate, 13% tint, Black mirrors, is black spoiler, LED tail lighting
Interior: 13 OBC, Mint sport interior, M3 style gauge cluster, Small monitor in dash with dvd and factory Alpine CD changer in trunk, Heated seats, Custom black mats, Rear headrests, Stellar/Autolock alarm, Keyless entry, Car phone, Aluminum pedals, M Shifter, K40 Radar dectector System (Factory BMW Fitted, sits on Steering column)
Other: All factory books (15+), Sticker, All receipts, Original paint, glass, and interior. This car has everything from the flashlight in the glovebox to all stickers in the engine bay to the small tool in the toolkit that everyone misses. But most importantly, the car runs amazing and has never given me a problem in 50k miles. Next to will most likely be a new chain tensioner as with the mileage, I believe is a good time to replace.
