Yup it has a 2.7 stroker for now - I've had alot of different ideas with new engine/FI combos, But it will have to wait unless anyone wants to buy my stroker engine ? hahaha

Haha yea i wish Lucan but the M325i will be for sale soon.. as i need the money for other things.

Looks nice. Everyone says it, but it is truly cars like these that inspire me to continue to own an E30 :D.

Where'd you get the wipers from? Are they Euro-spec?

They look like those one piece blade-holder and blade things.

How do you find them? had wondered if they are any good compared to the standard setup... living in Dunedin I go through blades like crazy <.< (and rain-x)

Sweet, Ill keep an eye out. My wipers suck.

Are you running M3 offset control arm bushings now? Whatya rekon compared to the stock bushes?, where you using the BC's before swapping the bushes? Im considering installing some in mine, hopefully to improve some of the "dartiness" at speed with some more caster, scared myself during the 5am commute to work this morning...
