  1. My wheels from rear
  2. Nope that's fine long as the tread of the tyre isn't sticking out more than top of arch
  3. Club sport is a lighter version, less sound proofing etc
  4. You won't regret it. I'd drive my 2 litre diesel over a 330ci all day, and I've owned both!!
  5. I currently have fronts et 20 rears et 32. Wheels 18 x 8 front 18 x 9 rears. There is plenty of room between suspension and wheel, but I'm lowered -100mm front and -85mm rear and I get arch rub even with stretched tyres under heavy cornering. But if your not going silly low, you should be fine mate
  6. I got a 330ci shell for sale if you want that ;-)
  7. Welcome and hi. What model you thinking about?
  8. Prob around 100k on the M54 depending on how hard it's driven, I imagine the same on the S54. But IMO wise choice mate
  9. I know the rears are on front and rear, not sure if they are on both sides

    Firstly Kevin we at BMWOC are sorry if you were offended in any way. Mart was doing what he supposed to do well in the rights of his role of Moderator in locking a post that advertises any company. I have taken a look at the post and there was no way Mart could have known if you were an company or just giving advice. But to be fair to paying members, Mart had to lock the post. Please remember Mart, and the rest of the team work very hard to maintain and keep this forum running, and they do it for free. Mistakes can happen, this is not the first and wont be the last. Im in the process of setting up a section of the forum where recommended businesses can be posted by members with a testimonial. Again, sorry if any offence was caused, please stick around.
  11. Yeah...well, jack it up and get another jack under the wheel to take the downwards pull off the drop link and try it then. Im on my 3rd e46 and everyone of them i have had to change Control arms and control arm bushes, but never on any of them were the drop links worn. The front control arm rear bushes (lollypop bushes) and the bushes on the control arms are usually the culprits
  12. I will gladly do it if you want to drive to j11 m6 But it's a very easy job, you would be able to do it yourself
  13. Drop links easy mate. Loosen nuts, jack up car, put on axel stand, take wheel off, swap old link for new. Might be an idea to change RCAB too as these are quite common to fail.
  14. Yes map mate... ...maybe throttle body too but I think it's only a map
  15. Welcome to BMWOC There is a bit of confusion with adverts on second hand BMW's because of optional trim level when new. But if you look for M Sport / M Tec models, yes you will get the upgraded body kits.
  16. Welcome to BMWOC
  17. Might be a daft question, but do you interior lights still come on when you one the door? Try this by shutting the doors, leave 2 mins and reopen them
  18. Looking around the Internet there isn't a lot of information on this. You will be one of the first!! But don't let tat put you off, this can happen. You really need a build plan..
  19. Some fantastic and interesting bits of kit there mate. We are here to help anything BMW related mate so your in the right place. The engine you have is the M57D30 If its 1998-2000 it's 181hp If its 2000-2003 it's 190hp
  20. Welcome Chico Get some pics up mate
  21. At first you had my curiosity, now you have my attention. This is going to be fantastic. The car will run without abs/speed sensors The speed sensors are for dynamic stability control and without them the car will still run as normal mate
  22. This to protect http://gtechniq.com/shop/3s-for-cars/interior-coatings/l1-leather-guard/ This to clean http://gtechniq.com/shop/3s-for-cars/wash-maintenance/w2-universal-cleaner-concentrate/ Top quality stuff mate
