Car is sold!

My S4 has K04 turbos, fueling, 450+/- hp... and makes a great daily driver, and I can eek out 20mpg if I'm careful ;-) I've tracked it a bit, but it is a heavy beast and is hard on tires and...

I'm not looking to make payments, so that Turbo is out. I don't know if you've every driven an early 911 with a 3.6 engine... definately a worthy 911 Turbo alternative if you need that kind of speed.

I just like to discuss - I will do what I want ultimately :-) Not looking to spend a fortune, just looking for a decent street/track car that will be relatively reliable, fast, and fun. I went the...

What should I buy to complement my 2000 Audi S4 daily driver? These are the cars I am currently considering now that I am selling my E30 M3. E36 M3, Porsche 964 Carrera 2 or Porsche 964 Carrera 4. ...

Some more requested pictures...

Back at ya. ;)

I'll take some engine pics tonight and post them here now that I know how :)

What pics would you like to see other than those I posted above?

Here's some pics... (I'm new to linking photos, so hopefully it works)

It is still available, sorry for the late reply. Check your email :)

Also - car has Turner oil pan baffle - I had it installed when the lower end bearings and rod bolts were done a couple of months ago.

Asking $12,500. Bone stock except for new Nakamichi CD400, Iigo & Turner chips.

Specs: 1989 E30 M3, Zinno Red, black leather, 125K miles. Power windows, sunroof, power locks, AC, on board...

Hmmm, chevy stuff in my BMW - I have my doubts :) I'll consider it though, so I appreciate the advise. I'll probably try the Redline and see what that does, then if it's no better, put in the...

Flushed = drain and refill. The shop, Eastside Bavarian, is a well respected BMW shop in the Seattle area. I doubt they would f-up something so simple, but ya never know. The noise did occur after...

Invoice said 3(units) I was assuming quarts.

It was last flushed in June, and the fluid that came out today was BLACK, with a slight metalic sheen. :-/ Even with the new fluid put in today, it still wines. Very frustrating! They put in...

Well, I just found out my rear diff is going bad. Metal shavings in the oil, burnt oil, etc... The funny thing, I just had the fluid flushed in June and all signs were good(per the shop). After...

I think that is gross vehicle weight, with passengers & cargo.

I usually shift at about 7500 at the track between 2nd and 3rd gears, and a little lower rpm between the higher gears (I don't know why, I just do :)). I usually keep it below 7000 on the street.
...

Mine is 2820 lbs, bone stock, full tank of fuel, spare, jack, and took kit in.

Front/rear distribution is 52.6/47.4 with me in the car, seat all the way back (I'm tall) :)

The above is...

If you go to tirerack.com, search for wheels for a 1992 BMW 318is, scroll to SSR, and the 15 x 7 SSR Comps should be there.

My wheels and tires came in, and they look nice! Better yet, they are...

H&R Race springs? How do you like them for Seattle area driving?

Based on my research, this is the setup I am currently prepared to purchase and have installed on my otherwise stock 89 M3. Given that it is a shared daily driver as well as my current track toy...

Cool, great to know I'm in line with where I should be!

Ok, just re-dyno'd my M3 at another shop, Iigo chip only this time. 163.8whp at 7250rpm, and 148.1 ft lbs at 4750. About right for a well used stock 120K mile S14. I was hoping for another 10-15...

OK then, when can I get one? :)

Luis,

I am 100% satisfied with the Iigo chip! After all, this is currently my daily driver, and I find the the Iigo is much better suited to real world use with premium pump fuel. The car starts...

Ok, I just dyno'd the car with the Iigo chip then the Turner chip. Results were pretty damn close between the two. I would post the dyno sheets, but the dyno numbers are whack. 215-220 wheel hp and...

Looks to me like the slow way thru a corner if you ask me. Entertaining though!

Yes, Exalto PE2, sorry for that :rolleyes: They seemed to get good reviews on tire rack review site, and they were relatively inexpensive. Not the cheapest performance tires in that size by far,...

Whew - I thought I missed the boat on 15" SSR's with proper E30 M3 offset. I got some used 15mm spacers with lugs, way cheaper than new, from a s14.net member. I just pray that 15mm will work and I...

I'm pretty sure you can still get one. I got mine after the big flurry of activity, and it was no problem at all.

Um, gas as it comes from the pump is a carcinogen AFAIK, and it's tough to stay away from it :) While I've never poured Toluene into my car as I am unsure as to whether it may harm my car, I don't...

FWIW, mine comes on and I have usually about 30-40 miles before the computer says 0 miles to empty. I then fill up, and usually put in 13-13.5 gallons.
