Couple parts we picked up.

[dmoffitt]

whoa, looking awesome so far!

[Mike@PureMS]

The seats are all original as far as I can tell. I'm not the original owner, but both the front and rear seats were alike with the perforations.

Great project.

Tell me, was that perfored(<- spelling?) vinyl on seats original option?

It has been mentioned few times here, bút I've never seen it IRL nad can't find anything on it from ETK.

Sick project.

Is it really only a 5hp difference? was there any difference between the motor givin in italy and this motor?

HP was about the same between the 2.0l and 2.3l, but the 2.0l had considerably less TQ.

Do you have more pics of the E46 type 44 rims? Hell, I may do a 5 lug conversion just to have the E46 rims on it!

[Mike@PureMS]

The diff is the 4.10 LSD from an E30 M3.
We do still have the smaller case 4.10 which was stock on the 318is.

The car may go in this week for the cage work, crossing our fingers!

[vlad]
