Could be for the best if you've got an auto

Henna Red What's that dark blue colour called?

That's where things get opinionated There's something about a certain white e30 coupe with a black grill that does it for me though.. They're both very different looking cars, can't really say which is better looking..

It's actually just got the OE Motorsport suspension all around Will leave the factory springs in the back for now, as it sits pretty low.. So maybe a set of superlow's in the front? or what's the deal on getting the factory springs compressed?

What would you suggest for the front of my Coupe to bring it down to a similar wheel-tucking height as the back?

Looks good! the lights make such a huge difference on a black car.

Yeh I was more referring to the front and rear guards. Will look awesome! What else is required for the front and rear guards to fit? what are the major differences with the M3 bumper? and is the grill any different to the standard E30 one? Same with the rear, are any modifications required to the tail-lights/bumper/bootlid to fit the rear M3 guards?

How far from bolt-on are the likes of the front and rear quarter panels? (obviously the rear quarters would have to be cut and moulded into the roof panel by a bodyshop) because I'm surprised there aren't more "wide-body" E30's around..

Will look fantastic on those Alpina's. Gonna keep the slusher?

Haha an E39 520 is probably still quicker than my car..

Yeh I'm pretty impressed with the RX65.. It's good, even around town.

I've got OE Motorsport springs in my coupe.. look under the rides section. Low enough in the back for me, but the front needs to come down 25mm or so.

Still think He needs to take some pics and stop teasing us haha.

Well not quite.. the truth would be M50B25 Turbo E30 Coupe 5-Speed ftw. But M50B25 E30 > M50B25 E36

Depends who you ask, Obviously a Vanos M50B25 E36 is going to be more powerful, but E30's as you say are lighter and general opinion is that they handle more responsively. M50B25 5-Speed E30 Coupe ftw.

Yeh I can't really complain about the ones in the E36, they're pretty good. Just used to the STi seats in the Legacy I guess..

Are they similar to the seats in my E36? http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....mp;#entry103477

Yeh the secret project doesn't have any backseats to access so that's not much of an issue. Didn't think about maybe just getting them recovered instead of buying new seats?

Take some photo's of the seats if you're selling them, I'm looking for a set of cheap seats that will be a bit more supportive than the stockers on my secret project. Sounds like it's gonna be a nice ride! I quite like the whiteness.

Drop it! a few inches. Think the blackened kidneys quite suit it to be honest, but will look good with the chrome back.

I'd imagine the manual for an M20 is going to be a lot more easier to come across than one for an S14. On a car this rare it may be a good idea to get it done by a pro.. Because replacement S14's are hard to find and probably fairly heavy on the wallet! If not.. can anyone point out anything with S14's that would make a headgasket replacement any less straight-forward than any other 4-cylinder engine?

Seconded.

If in doubt.. especially with an E30 M3!! PAY A PRO!!

Is that a cog with an exclamation mark in the middle? Gearbox??

Passengers window went in my E36 over the weekend too.. Guessing its a relay and not the switch as I hear a click under the dash whenever I try pressing the switch.
