Thanks! I think there's too many late model alpine e30s and not enough s50 e30s :shock:

how's tracking the 325i compare to 318is?

The m42 is better set up suspension wise and has more tire on the ground than the 325i. The m42 was thus faster through the twisties, turn 1 to turn 7 but the 325i was faster from turn 7 through up to turn 1
With an equivalent amount of suspension work, the 325i will "not feel" the same but it seems it can be driven to the same level as the 318iS. Perhaps later on this year, I'll get to try out the 325i with a better suspension. All it has now are fresh Konis and GCs with 450/650 set up.
