So I just bought myself a dedicated track beastie. 1987 325is. I have an E39 M5 which I love but it just isn't economical for the track. Tires, oil changes, etc. are just too much on that [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]car[/COLOR][/COLOR]
. The 325is's [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]odometer[/COLOR][/COLOR] stopped at 159k miles - im not sure how many miles are on the clock at this point. She's been stripped, half caged, racing buckets with harnesses, Conforti software, exhaust, H&R springs, stress bars, sway bars, SSK, Hawk HT10's, R comps (RA1's), transponder hard wired, CAI setup through a light, splitter, 4.11 Rear L/S Diff, etc. She seems to run well but I don't know a lot about the M20 motors. I've been researching but there are a number of models it appears. How would I pull info on it - is there anyone in AZ that might be able to lend an ear and tell me if she is running well? I'm planning on changing all fluids, cap and rotor, [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]spark [COLOR=blue ! important]plugs[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR], etc. before I take it to the track. Any good advice for a first time E30 guy?
Here are the obligatory pics....
