[jasonbk]

I get 23 mpg max with my M40...and yours is touring..How do you drive it?

[Mr.Wiggles]

I dig the M40.. I'm getting like 33MPG!

Looks good man... Reminds me of mine (may she be enjoyed by her current owner in FL)... Also, not sure what the motor swap plans are but that M40 is a fun little motor! Just drive it like you stole it!

[Mr.Wiggles]

just a question.

Q:Why did you choose hella yellow headlights?
A:I wanted all yellow fronts to separate myself from the rest of the pack. Everybody including myself normally laminate the headlamps, I opted for glass this time.

Q:Why dont you use yellow ebay hid bulbs?
A:I am using a HID kit for the yellow headlamps. No Ebay parts for the touring except the fogs which always get damaged.

S:According to what I understand you are downgrading your headlights... for yellow glass and crappy halogen bulbs?
SA: See answer up above.

other than that obviously the touring e30 is perfect

I need this touring in my life...

[Mr.Wiggles]

This car is mucho intense.
I must know Mr. Wiggles, where in SD do you live?

Whuuuuut???? :tsk:

[Mr.Wiggles]

Just curious how you're going to get it registered. I asked about the build date because the first built tourings are going to be legal this summer under the 25 year old rule.

It won't qualify as of yet because she is only 21

Edit: nevermind about the build date, just read the thread title. Still curious how you're going to register it. ;)

Awesome touring and nice build! It is going to turn out good!

Thanks man!

But, for the love of god, please take that m40b16 out and set it on fire. It is THE absolute standard for bad bmw engines.

HAHA!! No worries on that 24v in the works

Are you going to runt he french headlights? Aren't those ilegal?

Only for shows.. We will see if I have any issues..

Oh god, an m40! Kill it with FIRE!!

Nice build though ;)

Thanks again buddy..
