Hello another bmw nut!!!!!

[jarredb 0]

Hy im jarred, just got my first BMW which was bound to happen since the whole family is BMW crazy .

I got a 1997 BMW 318is 4 door M spec, unfortunetly it is auto but will be getting it changed as soon as i find an conversion kit and got a few other plans for it aswell (turbo).

Glad to finally be a member to this mint site, heard a few good things about it, as some of you might know gavin from hi velocity which is my uncle, is which how i found out about bimmersport.

Anyways hope to meet some of you guys at some meetings which would be great.

cheers

I wouldn’t say that, it has a nice kit and is already lowered, first port of call for me wouyld be Trade-Me to hunt out some M3 wheels!

Or some 318i Sport wheels.

Im not sure if anyone remembers but BMW-NZ has a 318i near the end of the E36’s production run, it features a M3 kit and some nice multi spoked wheels. I remember driving one new and it was a nice little car. Was dark peppermint greenish colour.

Ya im looking for some m3 wheels it will look pretty good with some on, but they pretty expensive for factory rims but well worth it.

Welcome mate,

There was a set of polished Style 24's on Trade Me a week or so ago, although they were rep's they were bloody cheap. Don't know if they're still there. Pretty interested myself, 'cause one of mine are pretty scratched, and polished looks really good IMO

Cheers
