Hello..
My name is Koko..
Drive on Diamantschwarz Metallic E30B18 M40 4 doors
Location : Jakarta, Indonesia

Mods :
- AC Schnitzer chip
- AC Schnitzer genuine body kit w/ MTechnic rear spoiler
- AC Schnitzer Type I 16" wheels, Dunlop FM 901 205/50/16
- AC Schnitzer steering wheel, pedals, grill badge, trunk badge

- Custom header 4-2-1
- rear disc (from 325i)
- rear sway bar (from 325i)
- front vented disc (from 325i)

but i'm not satisfied with the performance so i plan to swap with M42B18 DISA intake (ex E36 318iS '95) to my engine bay.. :)
and try to find LSD 4,10.. but it is hard to find, right ? :(

wow, she looks very schmick mate!

m42 swap will give her a good deal more poke. i used to have an m40 318i, and the step up to m42 is great. Good to see you want to keep it 4 cyl!!!

and yeah, the LSDs can be hard to find in these parts (Australasia), but i'm sure you can find one.

Are the gold wheels in the track pic BBS RS?

of course, i love 4 cyl so i choose M42.. the other option is M44 but i think, thats more complex problem if i install to E30. Maybe someday i can build a S42 :))

yup, thats my lovely wheels BBS RS 003 16"x7.. usually i use in track day and any speeds event in circuit because the BBS is very strong and lightweight.
i also keep OZ wheels too in my garage (brand new) hahaha..
all is 16 inch coz' i like old skool look in my E30 :)

you will love the m42, I wouldn't take a m44 over a m42.  But thats b/c I like forged internals.  It may be over kill on a N/A engine but overkill is better than underkill ;)
