lookn tight adz, good to see you over here mate! how was nationals dude? got flicks?

[CafeRacer]

yeah a whole cd of them! :)
but nowhere to host. Nationals was great, the JPS E30 M3 was out at the Wakefield Park track day, sounded unreal! The Turbo E36 M3 racecar (700hp?) got the quickest time as far as i remember.

[MikesJo]

Whoa, I'd like to copy your car :P. That's a nice car! Wait I already said that lol!

[ColdAccord]

looks great. got any pics of the rear?

[OOMPH!]

nice car mate.......welcome aboard.

[GaryE30]

Nice work :up:

[Ryan Stewart]

You bent valves with that chip? You never told me that.

How much hostage you need Adz? I might be able to come up with some. PM me.

Looks prett damn good!

Now, what kinda power is it putting out? You need to drop an engine of some sort in there IMO. And is that front mtech peice not attached well on the right front side? Otherwise your car is damn hot!

:up:

Looks good, very clean.


But what's the deal with the fitment on your M-tech II front valence??

I was waitin' for it! Hey bud, I'm in the same boat. Great lookin' car.

I WANT YOUR CAR!!!!!!!!!!

That looks pretty badass!
I didn't think that the mtech II would fit pre88 cars.

[CafeRacer]

To everyone enquiring about the m-tech 2 front fitment:
I read the same, it couldnt be fitted. BUT shit, it must. Its on mine! ;)
To fit them you have to change the whole valence underneath too, to one from an 88-91 (mine was straight from a 1990 318iS. The m-tech valence fits over the top of the normal one (factory) and the m-technic bumper cover replaces the 88-91 cover.
The actual bumper on there itself is from the 1990 318is, colourcoded white. I have a genuine m-tech 2 bumper cover waiting to be painted so i can fit it. That is also the reason it sits out a little at the sides. The M-tech 2 bumper cover is slightly flared, and the lower valence to match, so when i fit the m-tech 2 cover it will line up perfectly.
The rear and sides are fibreglass replicas at the moment (just replaced all the front as a start), but i have seen a few pre-88s with genuine complete kits up close. The side skirts look like a straight fit, but the rear may need modifying. Not 100% sure, ill get back to you whenever i finish the swap.
Thansk for the comments :)
