I was in a Cooper S a couple days ago and like the way it felt and was just wondering if I could get my car close to that feel. Mainly I am just kicking around some idea's of what I might want to do next. __________________ Scotty 97 Boston Green Active Dinan chip ,Dinan Cold Air Intake, Eclipse headunit, Angel Eye headlights w/ Clear corners, Clear sidemarkers, Powered by BMW seatbelt pads, Front Zimmermen Cross drilled rotors | | | 03-16-2005, 06:04 AM | #2 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | are you talking aftermarket or stock? bmw owns mini so ... i guess they do make parts for our cars (if you're talking about stock) i'm pretty sure none of the suspension pieces would be transferable from mini to 318ti. __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles current mods: bilstein sports, bavauto springs, e30 m3 LCABs, solid metal ball joints, bavauto RSMs w/reinforcements, e30 3.73 LSD & halfshafts, supersprint cat-back exhaust, turner rear sway bar reinforcements, IE poly subframe & RTABs + camber/toe kits, powdercoated e36 32x front calipers, sport mirrors, H&R 28mmF/19mmR sway bars, x-brace, auto solutions SSK w/poly bushing upgrade, BMW CD43 head unit, DICE HD Radio w/iPod integration and "stealth" HD antenna, staggered style 68s, orange electronic TPMS, leather arm rest, JT Designs metal undertray acquired and awaiting install: heated seat kit, cali top switch relo, lumbar support kit, park distance control kit, heated washer nozzle kit, m-coupe rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, and halfshafts, m-coupe front/rear brakes with master cylinder, under hood light kit, mud flaps, rear sun blind, auto-dimming rear view mirror, tilt steering wheel retrofit, apexcone 5000K HIDs with 55W ballasts 2002 X5 4.4 Sport Package, 53.5k miles Current Mods: e46 m3 steering wheel | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
