Well, gave it quick wash and some quick shots. I'm not pro so please save the comments about my picture taking abilities. If you like them, I have more, I'm just lazy right now.

You can find them for decent prices used... but hard to find, especially in good condition. Retails for $1200-1300

:thumbup: I like. It does have "the go" to go along, right? Please say yes.

Just cammed, chipped, intake, and exhaust for right now. I'm going to start piecing a turbo setup together. But thats not going on for a while. I'm happy with the engine response at the moment anyway.

Looks nice. Curious, why did u go with ambers in the front and not in the rear?

STFU!!! Out of all the questions YOU would ask something so minor as to ambers. You should just sell your car and buy a car with a nice paint job and a bodykit!

SMOCAN

No, its not an M. Its got vaders though, haha. I could never afford insurance for them... so thats why I'm gonna start putting money into the motor, a turbo setup most likely. Keep in mind I'm in college and work my ass off.... in due time.

The wheels are Rial Daytona Race

Maybe its just me, but I like the ambers up front only. Plus i had to pass inspection, I have painted corners that match the paint but light doesn't show through.... I'm debating what to do next. I want a new rear wing too.

05-18-2008, 11:29 PM
Ahh silly me. Car looks great regardless...and now that i take a closer look i can obv see they are Rials. Great looking wheels tho!

Umm don't remember exactly... maybe 22-24 lbs. They aren't very light but they are strong and are true 2-piece. They aren't cheap thats for sure.

Do you plan on putting a badge on that hood?

05-19-2008, 12:57 AM
so i assume we are looking at a 325 then? vanos?

No, I don't plan on it. Others and I think it looks fine the way it is... I placed one on it and it looked goofy and out of place

so i assume we are looking at a 325 then? vanos?

325is non-vanos

nevermind you answered the badge question on the above post....

Vypurr
05-19-2008, 01:10 AM
I think you should get a custom badge made or something. I agree that it looks odd with that hole there.

Hmm..let me ask why you have a bimmer and an S13 Original poster? That's like having a car that's "money" and one that's "poopie"...

If you want to play around with M50 non vanos motors hit me up ;) Where in PA are you? Once she's back together you should check out my car.

Well I recently got rid of my s13... 240s are the new civic in terms of people wanting them and ricing them out, no offense to greg (your cars perfect as it is) or anyone who has one. I still love 240s, but it was time to move on. And I really missed my first e36, so I got another one.

Thats what I plan on doing next... non vanos turbo, sounds beasty. i've seen your car around the forums.... awesome car. Def let me know when, I'm down. I'm in berks county, 10 min outside reading. I'm waiting for another big euro meet or something, I missed the last couple big ones. Or greg to make a good speedfreaks meet in the area so I don't have to drive an hour away.

Damn Smo your new E36 looks sick man. Definitely a step up from your 240. I didn't think you were gonna actually pull the trigger on a new car but I'm glad you proved me wrong. We got to meet up soon and maybe hit up some car meet.

Ha thanks mike... I'll make it up one of these weekends. I'm getting new suspension parts soon but I'm not sure when I'm gonna start pulling everything apart. Let me know if your going to one of the meets around you.

Nice BMW!

I'm a fan of the E30 and E36 ranges. E46 would be nice but still too expensive for me. Working at a BMW dealership I see older BMWs once in a while and usually drool.

I like everything but the hood and wing. Never really been a fan of that hood tho.

I like the 335i / 335xi (as you can see in my avatar LOL). Seen a lot of them lately at work, 3 of which were in for body/paint work already...

New M3s are different. Havent driven any yet tho and probably wont for a while.
