most effective would be to junk the power seats and put some fixed shell Recaros in.

emm.. they even have gt3 'alien' seat.. but i need something like sparco milano so that people can climb into the back seat..

but, but.. milano not light lah..

remove the four doors, bonnet, boot and replace with fibreglass ones.. but u will need a mould for this..


cheers.

or change your 5peed manual ( if it's a manual) into a 4speed.. lot's of torque..

cheers

DmC,

Pls state the engine that you have in your e28, mileage, auto or manual and mods(if any). Then we can take it from there.

Currently i'm using E28 525i (sorry.. i'm not sure wat kinda engine i'm using.. still new to this BMW thingy.. hope u guys can help me wit it).. super stock engine.. no mods at all.. auto transmission..
mileage meter rosak already.. so dunno wats the mileage now..

cheers

DMC, to improve acceleration, you basically need to increase the engine's torque level. If you want substantial improvement, you probably would need to install a forced induction system. The other options are plonk in a bigger engine and remapped the ECU (install an aftermarket performance chip).

Have you check your car for other faults? The E28 525 shouldnt be "that" sluggish. Check and ensure your current engine is working at an optimum level b4 going 4 any mods

Personal preference, to some even a 528 will be too sluggish. :yes: :yes:
