BMW only gives out freebies every 15k.

BTW me thinks that's an E46, Dayday! SMH I came in here to see an E36 sitting on them 10s.
 
i changed my oil today also in my vw. ran the vag-com because my check engine light is on and i need a smog next month.

p0171, p0440, p0442. leaks and my system is running lean. im going to clean the maf, replace the o2 censor, and replace this cracked hose and gas cap.hopefully that clears the codes. going to work on this tomorrow. also going to change the valves, cams, sparks, and figure out why my ac doesnt work tomorrow


got my bentley and a 6pack and ill be straight
 
i installed my 12's and my amp in my car
added some tweeters and aftermarket coaxial speakers
changed the air filter
and soon to change my shocks
 
Dope thread.

So I picked up my poopbox from the owner today. Now just waiting to get it plated, insured, etc. Car is pretty damn rusted, but the drivetrain is mint. 1991240sx S13. My first car... Beater status. Paid $250 for it.

Wish-list for the car...
  • Repair some of the rust
  • Coilovers
  • Sway/strut bars
  • Some cheap agressive offset wheels. (probably MB Battles)
  • New battery
  • replace the gas lines cause one of them is leaking

original owner thought the every 3k oil change is a gimick made by oil companys

Get coilovers for max drop.
 
Just washed the whip a minute ago. I'll post pics tomorrow. Since last posting pics I added a blacked out billet upper and lower grill.
 
yup GT3.I've had it for a year and a half and still loving every second.I have a dd but it's a 95 E320 and honestly I drive the pcar more.
The years in HS I had with the soft pillow suspension 217hp 4 spd auto make me really want the motons, along with the 6spd mated to a 381 hp high revingmachine.
I would do more but after law school I'd wait till I can get a green GT3RS. 5 years, hopefully it'll drop under 90k lol
at the fastest track in the west
 
i'm debating on gettin a new Chevy Tahoe, or a G35, or a Lexus LS
