bmw 82' 316 4 speed UK

Gaz coilovers are awesome, the threads go all the way down to the hubs you could probably make it touch the floor. Problem is you cant drive it touching the floor all the time lol.

[mk1magic]

yeah they look like a propper set of coillies compaired to some of the tat ive seen and used in the past! just too bad it cant be driven on the floor otherwise would save me round £2k lol

[nas80]

2 grand for an airbag setup.. crikey didnt think they were that much!

[Jannorway]

Well,I can buy your gaz if they are in good shape... And the price is ok of course...

[e21-Mark]

You can buy the street set-up for about £470'ish from RPM.

[mk1magic]

yeah they can get upto that much all depends on the setup i.e larger tank, more movementsi.e lifting wheels off the floor etc etc
Im not sure if they use the coillies to make the bags fit...? Eitherway its the future for UK driving!

nice car

[nas80]

I like the car, but the front wheels look weird compared to the rears, i think the fronts need wider dishes?

That exhaust is poking out at a rather jaunty angle - is that on purpose?

[mk1magic]

The fronts are 'tucked' to give an almost beetle like look I've thought about widening the dishes but still undecided, as for the exhaust it's resemble e 'bastuck' style pipe but the fitter didn't do what I asked so being sorted Saturday morning I'll post piks when it's all sorted!

[nicks85]

Looked familiar

Nice car by the way

Wow, cant believe that is the same car, very nice looking E21 mate!

[s1oww]

Just read through this, awesome car, but stick up a proper build thread.

Pics, spec and details please .

I've been trying to hunt this out since UD when I saw it rolling about.

[petroscf]

Very nice car mate!Is it 1.6 or 1.8??

[mk1magic]

hi
Sorry i havnt posted on here for a while not really done much lol
Its a 1.8 4 speed carb, i would post a build thread but i brought it like this, cant take the credit unfortunatly lol
Ohh here is a couple pics of the "bastuck" style exhaust that i had fitted...


Im pritty sure most of you wont like it but im smitten lol
Anyway recently i decided that the rs's needed to go, they came on the car when i brought it and never really thought it as "mine" until i took them off lol
First up is my "winters", these are a set of new beetle steels, rears banded from 6.5-8.5, sprayed Ford ivory...





However as i said previously these are my "winters" or untill i get these babys on....



Their Gottis, 16x8 alround with a 5x120 pcd (however i dont have the adapters yet, anyone got a set they wanna sell )
Im in 2 minds wether to sell it yet as ive been missing my vw's but not 100% yet
Ive a few more little bits n bobs being sorted as we speak so not too long between posts
