Gus 5 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 (edited) ...new shocks coming in sept hopefully, the brakes are glenns old ones off an evo 4, using jamex 40mm springs, looking at the pics it would look better lower but i like the handling as is.....the urethane bushes are all in (except the subframe ones, which i will do when i do some sort of camber correction on the back) its a sportline 350mm steering wheel..wouldnt mind getting it recovered in suede...the floor mats are daves old ones....perfect for muddy shoes from the farm! for music just got a couple of pioneer 6' speaker up front a 12" pioneer sub and lightning audio 300W 4 channel up with JVC headunit....nothing flash but i like it...plays rammstein good! and another bimmersport sticker when dave can be bothered to get them!

Grant 4 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 where did you soure the recaros from? also, did you get them with steat mounts?or build your own? They are standard in Gus's car. They are E30 Recaro's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spargo Report post Posted May 16, 2004 Looking ace. The E30 recaros is a misnomer, as recaro couldnt build them fast enough, so BMW built them, its the same design. Real E30 recaros have a very wide headrest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Speedye30 Report post Posted May 17, 2004 (edited) You must be proud, man. Nice car! Damn those 17s look good. And you can still keep a couple of bottlecaps for the rears. For burnouts or gymkhana. Or practising 180 degree spins (of course not so you can do a runner from the po-po). Yes, e30 recaro seats look really great, a bit like darth vader. You will hear them referred to as "darth vader" seats! Edited May 17, 2004 by Speedye30 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
