here you go m8's

in next 2 weeks i'll get new oem handbrake lines (both left end right)
and there's some possibility that I buy a LSD for the car.
and some adjstable coilovers

and after I buy all that stuff, I'll be (and I am) little to short with money for MOT.
so MOT will be next month.

really nice work!

i have a little question, you said previously it is lowered a bit, how do you proceed for the moment, springs?
do you fit front 323 brakes too?

once again, very nice looking E21!

car is lowerd by replacing springs. (front's are from vw golf 1 and rear are from e30 I belive)
when big engine is in, that will be no good because it'll be to low, so I'm going for coilovers.

brakes will be upgraded with some bigger (probably volvo 4pot and e30 rotors)

EDIT: all springs are from golf but shorter one's.

ow! OK for those precisions, i did not know that mk1 golf springs could fit... neither E30 springs for the rear... i understand what you say about the future engine, yet decided on what to choose for your coilovers?

brakes update is a next level of what i want to do (just 323i one with drilled discs)

thank you!

How have I ALLSO not seen this thread before?!?

Great work! It looks awesome with the new paint and the color is looking very good.

That's my opinion too!

BBS's were on the car for M.O.T. Now, they are off and are ready to be mounted up when spring comes with some fresh new tyres. For now, there are OEM 5Jx13 steeles with winter tyres...

This is what I did to some crappy tyres (DOT 0705) just after I passed M.O.T.
(I couldn't resist)
