      If you get over 19mpg... highway - I don't want to hear it

              incorrect. if your odometer isn't working, you're mathematically getting zero mpg.

                    i think that 318is is alil over priced... like i said realistically 3,000 to 3500 range maybe.

                      I've been tempted to trade my e30 for an e36 m3....But still not sure. I want a black/black or white/black 4 door m3. I think they look a lot sexier than the 2 doors

                        Purchase 318is. Keep e36 m3. Daily 318is. Save on gas.
                        Full of win.

                        Oh and that means you'd still have an ///M and you'd have an e30 again! ;)

                          I plan on having both an m and...oh wait. both will be e30s. :)

                              Take it to a machine shop and have it pressure tested.

                              I like to install M50 injectors in even stock M20 engines. I feel like they make it run smoother.

                              The E36 is only superior because of its reliability and affordability IMHO.

                              Best bet is o get them from the dealer. The OEM ones are way better quality than the aftermarket versions that parts places sell. They're about $1 each.

                              still need to get my shocks and springs done. if i cant find some one in the elsinore area ill get it done in Lancaster this weekend.;)
                              Nice, glad the cluster is fixed!

                              If you want Shant and I to knock out the suspension one day let me know. We could have it done in about 1.5 hours.

                              I feel like you should still be doing better than that, should be at least 20.
