    The Budget Cabby and My Other Toy.

    Here are the photos of the cabby i built for my daily driver. It is a 1992 318ic. It has the m42 motor. Its pretty good on gas milage 27 freeway with top down and flogging it. So far i have lowered it with eibach springs, replace tierod ends and ball joints, m3 offset bushings and new 325is shocks. I painted all the trim matte black. Added fog lights. Tinted side marker, turn signals, and third brake light. I added a euro dash clock. Theres also ellipsodes. The engine is all painted black with enamel. It also has a front spoiler from a volvo. It has a new head gasket. and a shaven head and a z3 shifter and a new sachs clutch. And a new convertible top. I also added cruise control So far i am only into the car for about 2500 to 3000 and that includes buying it.


    The other car is my toy. Most of you know about it. Dinan suspension and st 25,19 swaybars. Dinan chip. Saab moon roof. Euro cluster and euro check panel. Cba h4 and h1s with 100 watt lows and 110 watt highs. 3.73 lsd, sachs clutch, z3 m coupe ssk. E30 sport seats heated, hella air horns, 2 10" kick subs. 235/17 all around. Custom magnaflow exhaust. The list goes on and on. Defintaly the fun car.

    Im only 18 but i think i have a pretty good start on my car collection. I love both the cars and autocross and soon to track the e28. Tell me what you guys think and dont ask what insurance is costing me.

    Love the green w/ black bottlecaps. You pull off the volvo lip well even tho I expressed my growing hate towards them yesterday. Looks cool I like it. Both actually.

                        The style 5s on the E28 are just perfect. The E28 is pretty damn clean too! Are you running H&Rs or what?

                        I have a 535is / M5 air dam if you are ever thinking of going that way.

                              How's the Dinan stuff ride? I just stuck a full Dinan setup on my 635CSi, complete with modified rear subframe and trailing arms, but haven't had much time to drive it yet.
