    People, please. Never do this.
    Whoa nooooo. No. No, nope.

    Did it with my first E30, I lucked out and broke even but it wasn't easy.

    I keep spreadsheets for what I paid and where, but never sum those prices up lol.

      Anyone have a preferred place to rent equipment?

      Sunbelt, star etc?

      Have some friends that live in Cali, and will be the "maintenance" guy for their 3 houses here. Just curious if anyone had good or bad stuff to say about either.

      thanks


      Please leave feedback below, thanks

          I use NC Machinery, great customer service

          Star and United are great, we use both companies depending on our needs.

            Depends on what you are needing. I've used Home Depot for smaller stuff, and Star for medium things. My pops is maintenance supervisor for the local CAT dealer, so for big sh*t I go through him..

              Yeah, I had someone ask me the other day how much I was into my Car and swap.....Did the math.....Not as much as I thought, but still.

              It'll be a lot more in the outrun, considering a put a lot of the final parts on my credit card.

                Averaged 20 mpg on my trip to Tacoma and back to north Seattle. Definitely running quite rich, found a small vac hose that has some cracking at the ends, but would one small leak cause bad mpg? Or, is it normal? I looked on fueley, and there were two 323i's, one averaged 20.5 and the other 17.

                          I couldn't imagine what I spent on my bucket, in the long run going from an m20b27 to an m20b25 easily was a 3000$ learning experience. I can never make up my mind.......main reason the car still doesn't have paint.

                          Anyway, I'm wondering if anybody has a pair of diving boards I could get for free or cheap.

                              Let me see what I got Seth. I may have a set..

                              And if you want that 325es spoiler I got as well, you cold probably have them all since I am tired of looking at them.

                              Let me check tonight.

                                Don't need the spoiler, just need some bumpers to cut up.
