New Bimmer Owner in Upper Hutt!

[Goom 0]

Hi there all,

Just bought me a 1989 320i so I figured I'd better join up to the equivalent forum I've been lurking for a week or two, but I'm keen to learn more about my new ride (and hopefully get me some sweet deals on the mods I'm planning )...

Some of you may know if you're NZ Hondas members, not that I post that much on there either! Here's a picture of my new baby:

I'm planning to replace the original shocks/springs with something less tired, plus hopefully slap some BBS spoked rims on around about the same time...

Haha the irony is that I never actually bought a Honda - I'm just on the forum cos of a couple of mates... So I guess I came to my senses before I committed the mistake She's "just" the auto at the moment, although this may change at a later date... Right now the priority is suspension plus wheels and I don't know where to start so any guidance is much appreciated Looking forward to catching up with some of you Welly chaps/chapesses in the not too distant future

You're forgiven then lol.

Some good shocks ie bilstein sports or similar,some superlow springs-kings(about 390 a set) or higher qual if its in ur budget & youre already looking hot & handling better.

Wheels-most will say dont go bigger than 16s but some 17s can pull it off just.

Then as budget allows start working thro the bushes.
