The lights were blacked-out..if I am not mistaken looks like the '84-88 type but not too sure.. :ph34r:

btw what model do you drive and is it a manual? do you mind posting some pics of your ride so I can kaypor and get some ideas ? haha :P :D


Thanks!

The car rides stone hard..it was jiggling a lot on the road surface :lol:

is there a compromise comfort-performance absorber other than standard performance Boge/Bilstein..my local auto part supplier recommended Gabriel [a US brand]? Any comments?

Heil Fuhrer! Looks well maintained..pity no UK-spec 318SE [A] brought in by AB..my cousin told me that all local E30 318i were manual trans. ..sigh

Looking to find a decent rust free 320i[A] - :D ..do wonder whether there are any left in KL? haha :D :ph34r:

Was once offered a '84 2-dr 320i for RM11.5k but the rust was almost everywhere..so chickened out!

so how is it in Australia..do the members get together often?

Hullo Taikor Fabian

TQ for info ;) Can you tell me whether there are any UK spec 318SE's [A] in the club and what the price range is? is anybody selling?

Btw any idea how much it would cost to completely reupholster the interior of a E30?..have any of the members done it?

:ph34r:

TQ

I believe they double as a workshop and accessories centre. Usually see a lot of bimmers in their compound. Their location is at a corner terrace house behind the SS2 Mobil station.
