The New Whip

Nice M3, does it have working A/C? You need it with Diamond black.
I miss AVS Intermediates as well. 195/60/14, 205/60/14, 225/50/15...they had all the good sizes. And they outperformed the replacement ES100 in every way, dry or wet!

Ya, I was wondering if it was built on an overbore or E3 block.

Anyway, congrats! I'd kill for a 2.5L S14. :D

AVS I's are badass tires! looks good.

Are those Yoko AVS Intermediates? How fucking old are those tires?

Good eye Ben. They are 6 years old or something. I have a set of 16x8 weaves from an E38 that are going on as soon as I get tires for them.


Fred - What exactly do you mean? This was a 2.3 that was bored, as opposed to a factory 2.5 block.

[FredK]

sweet. Overbore block?

Finally found the new M3 after selling the Alpineweiss. Better in every way so far...can't wait to really get into this one.

Specs:

145k miles, 30k on 2.5L w/ an overall generally stock yet refreshed head(even though I swore I'd get a 2.3 this time), sway bars, hartge front strut brace, bilsteins w/ unknown very stiff lowering springs(feel like H&R Race), UUC short shift, euro grills, evo lip and splitter. Decent but not over the top sound system, drives well.

Cosmetically it's a solid 7 out of 10. Needs some paint touchup here and there but I'll get to that when the time comes.

Anyways, enjoy.
