    Hello R3vlimited

    3 months have passed since I purchased my 91 318i so I figured it was time to make some posts in this forum. Brief history of this E30. The car has about 150k and I have upgraded the suspension and sways. Although this car has spent it's life in Canada for 20 years it is still relativity rust free. The car came with a magnaflow muffler which made the car sound like a tuner car so we downgraded back to OEM.

    Here are some pics



    My attempt at keeping the rust in check





    The car is missing 2 cylinders







    We had a wind storm and I mad the mistake of parking near our basketball net



    Last interior pic



    This car is lots of fun to drive when it isn't in pieces, the PO failed to mention allot of preexisting problems (also I was blinded by how much I wanted an E30 and wasn't as observant as I should have been when buying it). I am excited to drive it in winter, does anyone here drive their 318i in the snow?

    My plans for the car
    Get a LSD with a higher gear ratio (stock diff sucks at auto slalom)
    Black out chrome
    get euro grills and OEM kidneys
    replace the majority of suspension bushings
    as well as some of the many DIY projects that are on this forum

        Looks really nice, it is hard to tell, but did the basketball hoop hit the roof in the second to last pic? What did you do for suspension?

                Thanks the suspension is all from turner ST sways, Bilstien sport shocks and H&R sport springs. Yes the basketball net did land on the car. I was joking the engine is great, the weight distribution is awesome although you have to drive to the mountains to actually find a corner.
