thanks, I have a question about the rear suspension, I was looking and found only Bilstein B6 for the rear, are the coil seats height adjustable?

Front works like a charm, really gokart feel, also in tight bends, you turn, car turns, spot on !

The B6 rears are only 2-way height adjustable, hope that's enough to put some tension on your springs

Wouldn't have expected it myself but the gold centres are a tremendous improvement on an already fabulous car. That's why I also featured the car and the forum in the Facebook group haha!

I hope it will be a video report :)
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Hmmm nice, makes me start to think if this should make this a winter project for the 323i as well!

LSD
rear stabiliser
bilstein B6 with additional "space" for adjusting height (currently no need for that, perhaps with H&R springs)

the car drives like it was ment to be a racecar, not a 30 year old grumpy :) And yes, the yellow bushes are not too hard, they fit like a glove with the B8/B6 combo.
