Saying hello from socal
« on: August 09, 2006, 10:37:38 AM »
Hey GUYS, I am picking up my new e30 318i cabrio in early september!!!! I completely stoked, as this will be a project for me.

Right now its dead stock and needs a new clutch and top, but i am prepared. First thing i am planning is suspension, and then looking for some more power.

Here are some PICS:









So lets hear some suggestions for my cab, specifically in the way of suspension.

TIA Guys.

Nice ride!

Glad to see the growth in 318s.  Just got mine last week as a project car.  If you have questions this board has the answers.  Enjoy!

M3 springs and Bilstein sports.

The word from another cabrio owner.

Suggestion: SEM brand trim paint (flat black) for the grilles and bumper strips. If it's a daily drive Bilstein Touring Shocks are good also. A little softer but still maintain compliance.
