Due to the insanelly high compression .. Diesels have a lot more torque than the petrol motor ... would make sense that its does a standing start faster ...

Would be very keen if ya could make one up for a e46 ...

just on a side note ... its costs $2500 to leather all your seats, panels and trim. and thats with the highest qaulity leather your can get too

heh .... seriously .. the handling on a Ti is awesome ... I would go with just lowering coils to start with ... and maybe thinking of coil-overs later on ... but you will get great benefits from just a set of nice springs .. and a front and rear cross brace. If you get new wheels .. make sure (due to the shorter wheel base) you stick with a non staggered setup (make sure all 4 wheels are the same width alround (225 max I think ?) as anything else will just kill that buetiful 48/52 weight split you'll have.

Am looking later this year / early next year on getting an ESS suprcharger unit (the 8psi model) http://www.esstuning.com/default.asp?c=sho...subcat2=114&id= It will run around 8PSI and be good for 325HP (DIN) aliluya I know you brother use to run an ESS one on his 330, How did he get on with the octane ratings ? In NZ we have 98 (RON) (which is what I put in anyways), they recommend a abolute minimum of 95 (RON) octane ( to prevent detonation) How did your brother get on with the aussie fuels ... also now that hes running 400kw hows he getting on ? I take it you turbo guys have lowered your compression to compensate ? I will be keeping the internals stock. cheers

Personally I think now it looks like a cheap Toyota Soarer or something nissan would do for the jap market .. I'm not a fan of after thoughts.

Hey welcome .. RE: the mags your looking at, they should fit it A/ Obviously you need the correct stud pattern and B/ You look to the correct offset for you car (not sure what the offset on a e36 compac is these days ... Because of your short wheel base I wouldn't go stagged as it will adversly effect your handling around corners. 17x7's on 215's :thumb: will look great

I stand highly corrected after following your links Very nice vehicle indeed ... but I cant help wonder how useless that car will be in a lot of counrties .. you would want to park it with those gullwing doors .. Im thinking it'll be for the american market only .. As the germans are not really into that sh*t ...
