    My angry car :)

    Hi all :)
    As I get some useful info from this forum I 've decided to contribute this way ;)

    Beginnig.

    Two years ago I saw a quite good e30 coupe at parking near my work. I don't care about it at first, because I'd already 318i :) But once something happens and I've came to read an ad at it's window. It stated that it was a 325e. Sounds cool for me :) There were a little rust but very difficult to find.

    how it looks at that day:




    engine bay:


    Unfortunately sdriver seat was teared and broken. So it has to be replaced.
    Then a restoration of rims camed on first place:

    then I'd my car repainted:



    head gasket was broken:



    foglights installed )



    close to nowadays, engine upgraded with 325i parts, new rims OZ saturn, and new brakes - brembo :

      Looks pretty nice :). I've never seen those rims before with the angled Alpina-ish spokes. And Mtech I parts are always awesome.

        got two days off and hands on suspension :)
        so at front : red springs FKSport fks05 08va, bilstein shocks
        also changed rods and silent blocks to excentrical (myele 300 311 2908)
        rear: m-technic springs bmw p/n1135905 4804 , + bilstein shocks

        silent block view:


        general view:



        max left and right positions:



        position of wheel in wheel bay:


        results? quite a little body roll, better breaking.

              The first set of rims is are so much cooler.

                      yes, they was the one of reasons why I bought it :)

                        how much for the wheels?

                        it's just too bad that they're not directional

                              I believe those first set of wheels are rare O.Zs. Levent used to have a Krisspy looking set of those forsale. He might still have them.
