Suspension / want 'even ride height'

« on: December 22, 2006, 05:43:47 PM »

I have bilsteins with H&R springs. I kinda wanted an even look because the front fender makes the car look a lil off. I just got the thick spring pads for the rear but wont be able to put them in til next week. Here's a before pic and I'll post some after pics once I get the pads in.

Thank you guys for the replies. One other question, if it is a carbon buildup on the 02 sensor, can I clean it off with lets say carb cleaner? Or is it pretty much done? They are pretty expensive.

Sup guys, got a question for yous. I do mostly freeway driving and was consistently getting 350 miles per tank using premium. Now for the last 7 or 8 tanks I've dropped down to 300 miles per tank. I know 300 miles is still good and people would kill to get that on their non e30s but its just bugging the hell out of me, especially with the gas prices.

Now It started around the time that I cleaned my ICV and ran seafoam through the vacuum line and added the rest in my tank. I did this twice on 2 seperate tanks. At first I thought maybe the seafoam was causing the fuel in my tank to burn faster or something so I let it go for the first 4 tanks but now I'm just like WTF? Does anyone know of the seafoam damaging the 02 sensor or something? Maybe thats why I'm running rich and getting the lower gas mileage?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Exterior / relining the headliner?

« on: December 03, 2006, 06:08:30 PM »

Black headliner looks really good. I got black headliner in mine and it matches the rest of the interior perfectly. I'm not too sure if the 318's came with em so I'm assuming the previous owner had it done.

Welcome to the forum. IMO the 318is is a very fun little car. This is my first e30 and I've only had her for a couple of months but I am very happy with it. My previous car was a 240sx. Also a fun car but I like the bimmer better. The amount of DIY articles on this site about this car is VERY helpful for a first time e30 owner. Post some pics when you pic up your new ride!
