Not only my first BMW, but my first German car period. I picked this up about 2 weeks ago...174,400 on the clock...i've already driven it 500 miles. Pretty decent condition...has a ding on the front passenger fender. Only one out of the 4 speakers worked. Rear brakes were shot...but no big deal...all fixed now.
So far i got...
-UUC CCR (Cheap Chinese Rotors haha) with Hawk Cermaic Pads in the rear...I just need to change the fronts.
-Alpine CDA-117 Headunit
-Alpine Type-S 5.25 2-ways all around
Recently installed NGK plugs based on the recommendations of some forum members that i was reading. Gotta do some other maintenance stuff to it since it's gonna be my DD....i think it needs new rear wheel bearings, two injectors need new seals and they're ever so slightly leaking, camshaft and crankshaft seals are needed...anyways...
I was looking for a daily driver so I would stop putting the miles on my newer car. I wanted something fun and i've been a Honda boy at heart. But i needed something with more excitement, something easier to maintain and not as costly. Also I didn't need another car payment...one more than enough...
^^^^Thanks to the forum i finally figured out the wiring mess...i'm used to easier things where i can just use a harness...:o
My E30 sitting next to my IS F =)
I got a huge list of things i want to do to this car....but a lot of it is going to be just maintenance stuff for now....thinking about some 16" Konig Supermesh wheels in gold, and probably an H&R Cup Kit for suspension...of course replace all the damn bushings all over...haha. Definitely going to be a project car....
