    Im quitting

    Im quitting the m3... atleast for this year. Its going to go into winter storage early. I dont have the time or money to work on it, espeically with school starting in a week.

    I figure I need about $1200 to finish all the mechanical odds and ends that need to be fixed or replaced. Then EVERYTHING aside from a full suspension will be replaced or redone. So I am just going to take it easy this winter and save up the cash to do it.

    I made a list, and I have check it twice.

    $99 Front Rotors Bimmerworld
    $40 Front Caliper Rebuild Bimmerworld
    $30 Rear Caliper Rebuild Bimmerworld
    $140 Fuel Pre-pump BMA
    $18 Fuel Filter BMA
    $66 Strut Mount BMA
    $64 Rear Pads Bimmerworld
    $78 Front Pads Bimmerworld
    $79 Rear Rotors Bimmerworld
    $40 Rear Shock Mount Turner
    $50 Alternator Rebuild Local
    $30 Front Caliper Bushings Dealer?
    $200 Rotor Spacers SBI
    $100 CSB ?

    $1,034


    Word to your mother: Dont trust fuel pumps that have 214 fucking thousand miles on them.
