its a lovely car that mate, shudnt be dissapointed with the power as its high enough to put a smile on ya face isnt it?
Looks nice as it is mate but if ur stuck for ideas i think dampers are needed to stiffen the handling a lot more, and some sort of spoiler as that is one biiiig bootlid and the current one is a bit weedy.
Keep us updated dude

Insurance is group 17 i think i am paying £1100 with tesco but i have been banned for speeding so i think thats a good price.
Adam going to change all the mounts engine and box to be on the safeside think my driving has a lot to do with the state of the mounts as for de-badgein it was thinking of putting 316 on the back but keeping the bm badges.

Just been to an airfield day with my car (sunday13th march) www.javelintrackdays.co.uk was such a good day learnt a few new things about my car things like what to do when you spin out at 80mph and how not try and race a bmw csl. The day started well had the saftey breif sorted the car then went round on a 3lap learning drive to get to know the course let my mate chris bmw m3evo tack the car out 1st then had my go 3laps in and span out all the lights on the dash came on and i rememberd what stumac tld me so brought it into the pits were there was water pissin everywere opened the bonnet had a look round and chris found i had snapped a fanbelt. Had thought of everything apart from that took 10wheels oil water tools but no fan belt took 2hrs to change gutted. THANXS CHRIS trackdays are great if you get the chance take your car on one just make sure you take tyres.
