Nice chassis to start with it looks like. Best of luck with the swap.

Keeping funds liquid, yet dropping a lot of money into a 15 year old car?

Well i got the car for a very good price. I was paying $500 a month for the M3 and insurance so that was kind of hurting me. Now i have no car expenses ( i am on company car insurance) and decided i would juice up a credit card with a project. With me doing all of my own work i believe i can keep my costs including the engine under 5k not including car,at least these are my hopes.

very jealous of the swap. lets see some pics when she's done

**vlad** · 11-21-2005, 11:36 AM

are you going to upgrade the suspension and the brakes?

Looks like a fun project! Good luck with it!

**aeryk7** · 11-21-2005, 11:44 AM

We'll see , that's where the budget comes in. Im shooting for koni adjustables and lowering springs so i wont be doing anything serious like urethane bushings or e30 m3 suspension swap just yet.

I don't see how credit card debt is any better than an insurance payment. You'll enjoy this car a lot at least.

What paint did you use for the wheels? I'm hoping to refinish my weaves that color.
