Hey everyone. Thought I'd post up my 21. Had it a couple of months and slowly working through the lists.
I'm sure some of you saw it advertised a while back, it wasn't as described, but still a good enough base to swing it (after a decent price drop!)
So far:
M3 grill badge removed.
Clutch slave and master replaced
Inspection 2
Sorted interior, repaired seat springs, fitted stereo (keeping original Pioneer speakers,
Purchased some Alpina 13's
Still to do:
Front dampers, as they're pretty shot (think Caddilac)
Lower arms and bushes
Rectify sloppy gear change
Drive it

Welcome here! Looks good! With the M3 badge gone it looks just like the car on the accessories brochure!

Thank you Jeroen.
I had an e21 about 20 years ago, so bringing back a lot of nostalgia, or just a midlife depending on how you look at it

Spent Saturday morning replacing the front dampers with Bilstein B4's.
Lower arms, track arms, brake hoses, and arb bushes.
I had to forgo the lowering springs due to the other parts required.
Complete transformation in terms of ride now, feels like a BMW now
Was a bit spoilt for choice this weekend with an E90 M3, lovely car.

Oh the hardship! I had an E36 Evo sedan as a daily for a few years, loved its performance and understated looks!

I know I'm lucky, got to make full use of a trade policy
The Evo:Totally agree with you on that one. The saloon is a real sleeper, and will eat 996's for breakfast.
That ones a definite keeper.
Had loads over the years,
21's, 30's (M & C2 2.7 tech 1 (favourite) ) 34's, 38, 39, 46, 90, 02 Bauer (another one I wish I'd kept) and came close to a 24 recently.
Hmmm maybe I've got a problem...

Fixed the hazard switch today, after a pair of little hands played a bit too much with it.
Also sorted the idle as the webber needed a little tune up.
Time for a spot of engine detail and check tappets next.
