Picked up this 3/90 Brillantrot/Black 318is 5 speed:
Unknown mileage. Previous owner of it claimed the owner before him swapped a lower mileage motor in. Who knows. It runs great and is a blast to drive.
Mods it came with:
Momo wheel (hate it)
H&R/Koni
Unknown Strut bar.
DDM HID's
It came with a set of snows and a set of iX basket weaves with star specs. I like the tires a lot but they are low and I can only probably get 3 months more out of the fronts.
Work done so far:
Reworked the rear brake lines. They're new all the way back. Bubble flares and bent fairly well. I relocated the distribution block for the rear brakes and replaced every hardline except the left rear. New rubber lines back there too.
Akg 80D diff bushing with a new gasket and RP 75/90 oil. That bushing is great and makes a big difference. It was clunking upon shifting. I had it on a lift and the tranny/engine bushings are new. CSB/Guibo are in stellar shape as well.
I snagged a leather E brake handle from a yard and the backing plate for the drivers headlight.
I wanted to sort the car fairly well before doing mods but i received a bonus check at work and couldnt help myself. I have waiting to go on:
Euro Grills
Smoked front markers
Shadow kidneys
and these suckers:
I got them for a good price. I ordered all but the tails from Abrahams who had prompt shipping and good service. Ill be ordering the Euro plate filler and the Euro trim through another source because I can get it cheap.
Also awaiting the Condor door handles in the mail.
Future plans for money i shouldnt spend:
Powdercoat the intake and runners, strut bar, valve cover, and throttle body wrinkle black. A local guy has them for me I just need to get them from him
ECU Chip
KA Motors CAI
SSK and a ZHP weighted knob
Smoked Smileys.
Tint.
I dont know why this was done:
But that needs to be cleaned up.
Ill update this as I go and I promise i will probably forget about this thread.
