Not cool, at all. M20 all the way.
Nice purchase, mate. You got exactly what I was after when I bought my 320i. Will be dope with suspension and wheels.

Just noticed you're in SA, if you ever want a hand spinning spanners, or someone to talk shit about BMW's with, let me know.

I know of a full BBS kit, complete with the boot lip, in SA. I think it's in the same colour as your car too.
This is it, before it was removed from the car.
Think the wheels are also for sale. I can give you the guys number if you're interested in either. I would buy the kit myself but I've got a series 2 four door.

Don't bother doing any engine conversions. The car is perfectly balanced with the BMW M20. They handle so good, even with stock boat spec suspension, eh?
If you do any engine mods, just wack a Series 2 head/loom/ecu on yours so you have Motronic injection, then replace the AFM with a Miller MAF sensor kit(it comes with the ECU chip to run it). That will get you an extra 10-15hp and a lot better throttle response. Might actually have some power below 4,000RPM then, lol. Although, starting with an S1 head, it might work out cheaper and easier to just go with an after market programmable ECU like a Megasquirt.
With a little money this would be a more competent track car than your E7, while still remaining a comfortable, inconspicuous streeter. The wonder of E30's.
I'll ask about the kit and let you know. It shouldn't be too much though as Alex is always pretty good with prices.
$800 for the kit, complete with boot spoiler.

Was good to see this in the flesh, definitely a clean example. I'm so jealous, you almost got this as cheap as mine.
Was this the one in the Advertiser around a month ago? I never saw it on Gumtree, eBay, or Car sales and I remember Sven ("svenmate" on here) told me about one in the paper at that price. If this is the one, I'm an idiot for not checking it out.
Gumtree all the way was labelled as bmw 323i coupe lol i love it and you know have given me some ideas for the head mmmmmmmmmm
