My Mtech I is ready for this winter

[BavarianBimmer]

I think the car is not so bad after 17years without a garage
I'm the second owner of this lil' M10b18 baby :oops:
but it's a great dailydriver and a good wintercar ;)
tell me your comments















BTW I've no blue ricer bulbs

[bimmerphile]

i'd be happy with that as my beater

[randomtask37]

that shit be ridin clean j0!!

[Beej '86 325es]

Phew! That's a lot of red lights on your check panel! j/k, my bimmer has seen those days too...

All you'd need to make the outside look awesome is a drop and some rims. When the pimp's in the crib ma - drop it like it's hot - drop it like it's hot. :)

your winter beater is nicer than my garage queen who usually suffers from no garage. But that's okay.

Nice car 8)

[Spaz]

damn nice,

but whats up with the dash around the radio....no room for an obc or a clock?

[BavarianBimmer]

rust is his first enemy now but it's not bad that all
I've those Hartge 16' style rims on 225/45 in front and 225/55 in the rear
but those are a pain in the ass on a 4 banger on wet pavement :evil:


Beej '86 325es : the red lights on the dash are 'cause my handbrake is engaged and i've no sensors on my pads

Spaz : Nope pre face lift 1.8 E30's are hard to find with a clock or even with OBC here in Belgium, (cars where expensive here in the 80's with our 25% VAT rate :roll: )


Car is dropped now much as allowed 60/40 mm's and hard as shit, almost notting in front Koni yellow in front and Boge turbo in the rear


Here are my rims on the car :

Na, I meant on the check panel above, not the dash. If you aren't running sensors on your brakes, you can always just close the circuit with the 2 wires at both wheels. That will make the light go off.

Do you've ever seen an M10 with an full active Check Control display ??? ;)

nice lookin car.. except that exhaust.. its pretty ugly

[hamann318is]

Sadly, your winter beater is what one of my dream e30s looks like. I guess that means I like it.

M-tech 1, one of the hottest creations by man.

I don' wanna say a "winter beater" 'cause my M42 is only for summer weekends while the weather is dry
The MtechI is for all day use summer and winter
AND its a well maintained car



yeah I know the exhaust is ugly, but its nice for an almost 11years downpipe

You got the important parts covered, a replacement front seat and a good steering wheel.

My only beef with the Euro cluster is the 999KM limit on the trip odo. I liked using my old one to measure out the oilchanges.

As you can see my drivers seat is a semi sportseat now
( backpart is original sportseat and the sittingsurface is comming from passengers side out of my wrecked 324d ;) )

what's the diff between US and ECE odo's ???

[Ryan Stewart]

Oh that the KPH is so short. With the old US trip ODO I could count the rollovers to know when to change my oil. Now I have to think.

At least now if you see my car going down the highway at 60% of the speed limit its been stolen.
