Exhaust (bain of my life at the mo), remap then brakes at some point. Maybe the manifold upgrade, we'll see how it goes mate. Need to get my sill covers sorted first though but that's a bit off yet. Oh, and speakers.
Edit: and a trip to Mr VANOS.
You really are going for it pal, I have found a mechanic that will do my Vanos, the kit is £70, and he wants £100 labour.Exhaust (bain of my life at the mo), remap then brakes at some point.

Good news mate. Paris is paying for all this and will end in 2.5 years time mate so I'm getting done what I can.
About time you stopped polishing and got some proper jobs done on that car (says the man who washed his two weeks ago despite the water turning to ice as he hosed it...).
A BMW is not complete without induction/exhaust and proper suspension!

That's a fact and she looks and rides so much better for it. Cheers. Nothing wrong with washing cars in the cold. Good for the soul
Thanks. Goes round roundabouts and corners well to
Your car looks extremely well @Andy McDonnell - and the stance just right - any rubbing under the arches?Updates;

Took the old girl for a spin, god I love this car! What a difference the mods make! Don't car if the K&N gives more power or not as the noise is just great
Old shocks (look original? Thus making them nearly 20 years old. Well past it!)

Sitting nice and low, corners well
Nope, no rubbing whatsoever. Though I think I may need a couple of spacers for the rear wheels now as the top sits slightly inward of the rear arches. Not even any clunking going up the farm track.Your car looks extremely well @Andy McDonnell - and the stance just right - any rubbing under the arches?
Update:
Supersprint Cat back stainless steel exhaust with 76mm tips, braided brake hoses all round, Poly Diff Bush, all break pipes replaced, brake fluid, Diff Oil.
To pick up Friday, two new sill covers for later and two new "roadster" things for the sill (oh, you can only buy new from BMW with the large plastic bit it sticks too)
