Nah I just turn em by hand.
Looks much better dropped by the way. Leave it like that!
I've just ordered a Meguiars dynacone to polish the lips on my RC's, get them super shiny.
Oh and an M3 backbox modified to fit to give it a bit more rumble - I'm not mechanically savvy enough to debaffle my std backbox.

Boom! That height has just set it off completely.
Looks superb!

Cheers bro, the rear springs have settled better now
lol!Sounds fun mate, you should get that tool. It should be in your boot above the spare wheel
Nice! I took mine for a blast today, first time in aaaaaages. God I love E36's!

I love them too, I'm going to have to raise it up as its pretty undrivable this low
Not really no. I can't go over even the smallest speed bump or hill without the bottom of the car scraping over it though. It'll go back up next weekend.
My only issue is the tyres on the front are too small. Wish I had got 215/45s.

Seriously regretting the 205 40s. Going to play with the ride height some more to see if I can get it looking right without scraping on every little bump in the road.
Otherwise I'll be going for some 215/45s (Like I should have from day one!! )

Its ridiculous mate. Its mostly the lower bumper plastics that can be removed, but I can't go over any size of speed bump without something under the car scratching. Also I'm pretty sure I've scratched the side skirt, I've noticed a mark I've never noticed before. (about 15cm long on the base of the skirt)
Does look good though, I can't stop taking pictures of it.

There were no m-sport branded e36's. It is a sport which is equivalent.

Sorted, although I found your for sale thread on BMWowner now.
That looks sooo good.
Needs the M lip on that front bumper..
Definitely the next mod.
Cheers mate.
As above.
One sold for 7k the other day, was Hellrot red with around 50k on.

Oooo, strong resemblance to yourself and Barney old chap
Yeah I know, we were laughing about it but then the seller listed that it had sold and he was looking for other 328i Sports to sell on. Madness.

That sure is tempting. If they were RC042s I'd snap your hands off

I'd snap my own hand off! Been after some decent nick RC042s myself but they're all knackered or part of an expensive set so far.

Update time
I took my interior out for a much needed clean last weekend, pics will explain all!
Onto the cleaning, gave the leather a nice condition with gliptone:
Gave the exterior wash a too as today I've been to a show/meet in the car. Usually take the Integra to these events, but wanted to see how the BMW was, and the drive down was much nicer :lol:
Pics from the Slammedia meet:

On the way home I wanted to get some pictures of the Harrier outside of RAF Wittering, the RAF guard on site was happy enough for me to do so, so I cracked on

Overall a good day... the trip resulted in a pleasant 36.7mpg on the OBC too.. 420 miles so far this tank and the petrol light isn't on yet!

Like a toss I didn't disconnect the battery when taking the seats at so have the airbag light on now. Will just need a reset from INPA (thanks to Jord for sorting me out with that)
One thing I'd like to do to the car soon is to get some kind of device fitted which will maintain a constant speed whilst cruising on the motorway without intervention. Anyone have any idea of anything that might exist to perform that function?

60L aparantly, but I've put 62L in it before. Must be 60L+reserves. The oracle will confirm.

I think it looks fantastic, the colour really pops
I've still got the srubbing. Not sure on what to do. I have 3 options...
* Raise the car up 20mm, which I really don't want to do as I love how it sits
* Remove the wheel spacers, or fit smaller ones
* Fit smaller tyres, which I don't want to do, as I'm already 20mm smaller than OEM per tyre on the rear
* Live with it - which is not really an option.
I THINK, I might get away with 10mm spacers. Going to remove the spacers entirely this weekend and give it a test for clearance.
Anyone have any 10mm they want rid of?
DC2 TypeR / E36 328i
Well I guess that's 4 options isn't it.
