whoa... the white one's not bad... for a parts car
(I am so obviously kidding)

holy crap, quit hogging the 318iS ...there are still kids in china who don't have one!

Is the D/S car more of a track car? just curious...

[e9nine]

Hah, the DS is actually the milder car. I hope to keep it as such. The white one is the one that get's most of the action. I am not rich so I can only devote priority to one car at a time :( , not forgetting the fact I am only one human and can only drive one at a time too. I prefer to get used to the car's overall behavior and I prefer the Konis over the Bilsteins as well.

[Febi Guibo]

I am not rich

um, having two E30s will do that to a person...

[e9nine]

Hah, at least I don't "clean" my spark plugs and try put 87 Octane in them. I usually prefer to have 2 cars. Still cheaper insurance than having a newer car sans car payments etc. If one car is acting up, the other is the backup and I am able to compare some things as well.

[bmwman91]

Clean looking rides man! Definitely dropped there!

[M42Technik]

Still mad at you Airik for stealing that car from under my nose.

Oh well, I'll never let it go though! Beautiful car. I can get you a set of ACS Type I three-piece wheels if you want. I'll get more details later if you so desire...

Oh and get some smoked taillights for the white car. You know how great that looks.

thats the plan I use too (318is and '73 914 2.0- I think there is a similarity in there.... 4 cylinder cars from folks known for 6 cyl engines ). But of course I still have to have "reliable" transportation for the wife- aka Honda:mad:

[tim_s]

wow, that e30 lots awesome on the style 5s. i love it, thats so unique.
what suspension are you running to get to 5 lug? e30 m3? compact? e36?!

[e9nine]

Thx guys. Dan, can you like not remind me in every thread how you hate me :D Smoked tails are on the way. No rush at all on my part.
Tim_S; e30m3 suspension on all 4 corners. My car's motor is seriously inspired by yours. It's more of a very serious dream for now though!

[M42Technik]

Thx guys. Dan, can you like not remind me in every thread how you hate me :D

Nope! :D

I just want it sooo bad.

[tim_s]

those wheels are just amazing. gotta be the best wheel/suspension setup i've ever seen on a 318is

[Eurospec]

I'm impressed by your resume.

Agreed. I'm impressed by your resume.

Thanks :D
I am hoping to simply drive them and enjoy them, fresh Bilsteins go on the black one and I'll run it in DSP for this year. White car will be for track trips or TO auto-x runs since the 5lug suspension unfairly puts me in Mod :eek:

[Zoso]

Great looking cars. LOVE the M-Tech 1 rear spoiler. Nice work!

[e9nine]

So err I have been busy as usual and here's 2 updated "stable" pics. I went to a DE this past weekend and acquired my 10th e30 last week which is coincidentally my 4th m42. More to come later :)
