[QUOTE="zhilmiz, post: 623516, member: 27996"] Hi everyone...a newbie getting into the room... Hi everyone...just call me zul fm kemaman trg...just baught an E30 year 83...my first drive back to kmn give me 3 times jerkings like out of fuel along the hiway...next day another 3jerk otw to town...no more since then...i never drive a bmw before but this one give me like a lowered kancil along the hiway... I am totally blank abt bmw...read every single discussion fm this thread plus the helpful engine type photos but cud not find something to match mine...my friend told me it's 1983 320i 1.9cc but had change to 2.5cc...he quoted from 525 year 2000 above... I saw its yellow type adjustable shocks nfm here i learnt its billstein shocks...lets say the front end is too stiff...how shud i go abt the adjuster click...what is the factory setting for those shock...feel fm experience driver will definitely improove on those settings...is it a compression and rebound adjustmenf or just a single control...but the rear left shock was rub by the tyres...i noticed it yesterday when sending for wheel bal...the right front tyre bearing is having some slight freeplay...which i cud not perform bal on the front...the rear job yesterday has removed body shakes...just a slight steering shakes... How much normally it cost for the replacement...i go to kl frequently and stay in selayang...any good reccomendations for a good mechanic....most important is timing coz i travel to n fro very frequent...in fact tonite will be driving to kl...not to forget reasonable charges... The wheel settings are 215/45/17 front and rear 235/40ZR17...any comment abt those set up...i will really appreciate any performance experience from you guys...my hp no is 0179596717...anyone crossing kmn are welcome to cl for a getting to be friends over an otak2 or satar delights... Another isue is a humming sound come from the rear give a riding a 4WD hard compound tyres' sound...very irritating plus i believe the speedometer turning sound that make you feel like dont have to see the dashboard to know the speed... The rear LSD also a 525...plus a storm sound fan fm the aircond fan..its 5 hole wheel lock system...is all ghis true...i will try to post some pbotos...
