    You know why that's fun?

    SCENE: some side-road off of the 9

    Other guy: dude, you were quick through there! How much power are you making?

    Me: never dyno'd it, probably 160-170ish?

          My e34's clutch has been acting up lately. Engagement point changes height at times and sometimes it doesn't wanna come up on its own. Clutch slave and master are new any ideas other than bleeding it?
          The first car I ever rode in was an e30

                They never made a 318 M Technic, even overseas.

                Not even a full Appearance Package swap. S770A cars have an M3 style rear seat (the stitching is on the side of the center bolster, rather than on the front of the bolster).

                Would be a good car to part out though. Front seats look decent, the kit (if it's genuine) is worth a bit.

                  Sounds like when my master cyl took a dump. Was it doing it before the new master went in or only after replacement?

                      Really? In that case I stand corrected.

                        I'm trying to bring the option list up to check if it's factory and every single site is choking on the VIN. It's AD02672 if anyone else wants to try. Italian import car, the Mtech installation looks OEM.

                        EDIT got bmwvin.com to work, no mtechnic in the spec list.. maybe dealer installed?

                              Could be a dealer thing, I'm pretty sure on the 325i thing, Italian/Portugese 320is complicating things.. Stripping it? Motor must be trash, I'll take it off your hands

                              Edit: interesting that it's not listed as an M Technic car on the VIN, guess I was right ;)

                                Let me know how it goes.
                                I have that swap ready for my M3 but no need to do it now. Although I do need new rotors.....
