[Simon S]

Hot damn.

You don't mess around !

[bmwstephen]

let me know about your repainting plan. I'm in the same boat as you with a sterling silver. I need a respray as well but don't want to spend tooo much

[Kilawin]

i need those recaros for my E10

[MR 325]

(and I dont mean r3v respray)

Hey, watch it! :)

[MR 325]

Congrats on the car, love me a silver E30!!

[bmw325csi]

nice. ive seen most of your cars ATAN and I agree with ZM Blue devil

[e30damen]

awesome...

[miggs87]

I can hear my E30 crying with that pic you put up of the parts, lookin good. Can't wait for the next update

[freeride53]

with your history, im interested in seeing what you will do with this one.

[ayemattyyy]

And seeing as how the rs003's are worth more than most peoples "daily driver" I can already see how budgeted this build is coming out :D Can't wait to see it! Tanforan meet on the 29th?

When I saw IS in your title, I held my breath and hoped it was an M42. Now I'm going to hold my breath until you say that you're NOT going to engine swap it ;-) Seriously, the 318iS will make the perfect daily driver in stock/enhanced form. Guys like you and Vlad are raising the prestige of the M42

LOL at the M lighted shift knob retrofit :up: I own a Z3 Coupe and i've re-used tons of Z3 parts I had lying around or could get cheap from the Z3 crowd. Here's my list:

4:10 Torsen LSD from a 2.8 Z3
M finned diff. cover
2.7 turn lock-to-lock steering rack from a non-M Z3
Shift lever from a 1.9 Z3
M lighted shift knob
Z3 BMW Traffic Pro radio
Coil-on-plug conversion using Z3 3.0 M54 coils
Z3 roadster antenna

Hey Alvin

Nice pick up man. It makes me miss my 318is so much. I'll be dropping that dash off at your friends house tonight. Looks like it is going to be an awesome project! Can't wait to see some pics a few weeks down the road once everything starts getting installed.

[che13]

[freeride53]

m42 ftw?
