new to the forums. from bmw to bmw
just wanted to chime in and say hi to you rev guys.
i guess you can consider me new. ive always skimmed the forums as a guest. just never registered til now. ive always been on bimmerforums so a proper hi is needed here :)
not really new to bmws either. i was an owner of a 99 e36 m3 for 6 years. which i happened to have to give up due to family issues. my dad has an e46 m3 and used to own an 87 e30 325i. so i guess you can say i have the passion for bmws in my veins :)
being that i lost my dd. and ive always had a soft spot for e30s. im now in the market for an e30 dd for work and school as an art major
and as im new to e30s... what issues should i look for while im shopping for one? i hear a lot about this timing belt issue. i have no problem working on my car if i need to unless if im missing tools so i can have a shop look at it. i know of all the e36's suspension bushing, rear shock tower, cooling system, and other issues. and im wondering if e30s had the same troubles
any specific models/years i should avoid? and other things to look out for?
i have big plans for the e30. so youll see me around here. or if not, then under the same name at bf.c
/cheers
