: : : Hey, I would like any advice/help I can get. I got an 87 325 that is in great shape...only 100,000 and a perfect interior. Where should I start? Wheels, Paint, Engine Mods, Body Mods? What should I do? I am only 19, so any money saving tips would be appreciated

: Thanks. Can you recommend what suspension to use? I would like the car to be lowered about 1 to 1.5 inches. Also, do you think 16 inch wheels are a good size?

As Lee suggested...H&R Sport springs and Bilsteins. If you're looking for a stiffer than factory-like ride with 1.75" front and 1.50 rear drop then Eibach Prokit is your best bet. I think 16x7.5 are a good size to run on regular E30's.
