New shocks
Probably Ten Flex Coilovers. Approx £1200 in the UK, and a further £300 for the EDFC (Allows you to adjust the suspension from inside the car). Overkill for the road, great for the track.

JWR Exhaust
Appear to be a copy of the Mongoose exhaust. JWR is the name of the ebay trader, so could possibly be a reselling Blueflame exhausts (who used to contract manufacture for mongoose)
-
Strong smell of Optimac from exhausts...
Overfuelling. Most likely causes are failed o2 sensors or Temp sensor. Could also be the Fuel Dampner.

New shocks
Stock shocks...rough prices : Fronts : £85+vat each Rears : £30+vat each Total : £280 roughly KYB AGX @ AMZperformance : https://www.amzperformance.com/z32/?page=shop/flypage&product_id=145&category_id=360440ec44fa47d797f5ade663d4106c& $379 = £215 + delivery + tax

New shocks
KYB AGX Adjustables or Koni Sport adjustables. New stock shocks are also good, but price is about the same as the KYB and Koni's
-
turbos on a budget
AMZ Stage II's and JWT Sport 500's are about that price I believe. Delivery and tax could put price over budget though. http://www.amzperformance.com Recon stock tubs would be less than £1k

Big problems
Disabling Hicas wont have an affect, as the cause is almost always the outer hicas bushes, rather than the Hicas unit itself. But if its not the Hicas bushes, then the next most likely cause will be worn rear shocks. Other than leaking, there are no visible signs of worn shocks, and zed's are usually too heavy to do the "bounce test". If they are the original shocks, they ARE worn! Worth getting a full 4wheel alignment check too

Lotus Carlton
I owned a Bmw 535i sport for 5 years, and my dad had a constant run of carltons (including gsi) for over 7 years. Big, Big difference between them in all areas ;)

Lotus Carlton
B10 bi-turbo versus Lotus carlton....performance is pretty much identical and about the same amount were built. The Bmw B10 bi-turbo is based on the superb E34 Bmw. Whereas the LC is based on the errr...Calrton :( (and we've had carltons in my family for years, and they are crap cars) with a lairy bodykit. One is of Exceptionally high quality, well built and reliable, the other......is'nt. ;)
-
Lotus Carlton
Cant say Im a fan of the lotus Carlton. Bmw E34 M5 or even better the E34 B10-BiTurbo far better car.

Any Interest on a Group Buy On Eibach Springs
Perhaps this should be arranged alongside a group buy for Shocks Either new OEM, KYB AGX or Koni's. Not much point in fitting uprated springs to old worn shocks, all they will do is show up the worn shocks weaknessess.
