From Alpine to Lachssilber (1988 325is)

So just a quick update!

I did motor and tranny mounts both were completely shot especially the motor mounts. I went with the AKG 75D poly mounts. I couldn't have asked for better performing mounts honestly.






But upon doing that I got some intense vibration occuring when i hit around 60mph so I decided to replace my csb, and guibo for my driveshaft.

It was only when i cam to look at the guibo i realized, one of the six bolts was missing, and not only that but my guibo and CSB rubbing were completely cracked up.





Anyways, now that that's all done I'm thinking of getting a good set of brake pads and rotors and begin practicing some autocross. Anyone have any suggestions on what might be a good performing set? I want the best biting brakes and I'm willing to sacrifice having them be dusty, just not extremely noisy.

so poly motor mounts will increase the NVM a lot? Would it be better to go with stock to keep it running smooth?

Simon, Its hwy 9 actually and yea dude the man has become a slave to his car. Cool he has 400whp right now but he spent a fortune fixing 8 bent valves, his knock sensor still goes off and same with his check engine light. Its just not working out for him and all his money is going into that car. forget about the vert LOL

not exactly sure what you mean by NVM. but to me the motor mounts were a life saver. had I gone with genuine bmw motor and tranny mounts i would have not only paid more, but because of how much they insulate and absorb i may have not realized i was having driveshaft issues until it was too late. I honestly highly recommend them. You just get much more noise inside the cabin and a little more vibration, but your trading it off for a much better performing car.
