    New Here

    Hey all I'm new here but not new to the BMW world. I had a e36 m3 for about 2 years and loved it but had to sell due to financial problems. But after a year I had to be back into one so the search began. I got luckily and found a 325is about 2 hours away that broke the timing belt so I got it for pretty cheap and was surprised when I found out the car was originally from canada.

    Sitting in the garage

    Starting the rebuild

    Took the valve cover off and found this.

    Got the head off and found out I need to replace valves, rocker arms, rocker shafts and pistons.
    Decided to go with a 2.7 seta crank, pistons, etc, with a 325i rebuilt head and possible 272 cam in the near future.

          Im pretty sure its the same spec as the U.S. Models. Just got a canada transport badge and the speedo is in Kilometers. Like to think of it as Euro as I can get in the states.
          Im in a little town between Destin and Pensacola.
