Check and criticise

[KaZaS_88]

Hey,

I just finished my 25 month army service in Cyprus and will be going to Reading UK for studies. I got the car about a year ago for my 18th birthday and this is how it looks up until now. Please make comments and suggestions because now in the UK I’m planning in starting a new serious project car featuring a 330Ci drop top or if I’m lucky enough an m3 both in alpine white. Sorry for the 2.2litre engine of this car but a new 320Ci in Cyprus costs about 49,000euro and a 330Ci 97,500euro due to stupid engine taxes above the 2litre range. (bodykit was specifically not installed because of my departure to the UK…. Racing dynamics was in mind or M-Tech with AC splitters in carbon)

Hints: Hamann full exhaust system, Hamann eyelids, full Hamann interior in aluminium (same with cars trim), BMW aerodynamic rear spoiler (had hamann but bmw looks better afterall), Hamann strut bar front, Hamann ECU remap, 8x18 Kosei wheels shod in Michelin Pilot Sport ps2 235/40 tyres, Brembo 4pot callipers front with cross drilled discs.

P.S. I’m not a girl, just my girlfriend :o)

Looks okay so far mate:cool: . Maybe some mirrors and a drop next??

Welcome matey [hiya .

Nice mods so far. Definitely change the mirrors as that would be more in keeping me thinks. :cool:

Nice and clean looking car !

I agree with Lee on mirrors etc , perhaps also some lowering suspension ?

Just to confirm , are you asking for suggestions for the car pictured or for your new propsed 330 / M3 ?

best of luck modding anyway , you will find all the help you need from this forum ...:)

Definitely proposals on this model and future tips for the 3.0litre engine. As I reckon the new car will have the same sort of style interiorly and with the rear spoiler but I’m thinking for black HRE wheels dip polished dish and Tar-ox 10 or 12 in silver which I think are a great add-on on an alpine white colored car. Now the bodykit is really a problem but a visit with u at CA will solve it hopefully. Loved what u did with the purge valves on your 320Ci maybe copy it? :o)
Also Lambo Doors IS a must.
About lowering… I know nothing in that section so tips are welcome.

hi

i suggest Eibach pro kit lowering sorings , or even better Eibach pro street S coilovers .

I agree the purge valves look cool ( although I am not a huge fan of NOS itself ..) .

The Tarox 10 and 12 calipers do look the nuts , but cheaper and believe it ornot better "real world " braking performance with Stoptech . Less money too !

I love the Sidel bodykits , I really do , but i seem to be in a minority here ...but in the actual flesh they look sooo good IMO ..photos dont do the kits enough justice .

all the best

[KaZaS_88]

once again thanks. will check the items as per your advice. remember though... seeing Brembo... and Ap racing on the callipers beats the hell out of stoptech in posh ! :)

[KaZaS_88]

how about this Lumma wide body? Can u fit that? and if so at what price... rough estimate for the labour and if you know for the bodykit
check it out at http://www.psgbodystyling.co.uk/bmw_e46.html under CLR/GT DTM look

thanks
