Got the beast running today

Finished off the intake and fuel pump, changed the oil and took her out for a bit of a test drive today.
I even had time to wash all the dirt off.

Here are a few pics, I will load up a few more later.

Enjoy

Eagerly waiting to see the pics of your new car.

**Blackice** · 10-12-2009, 06:39 PM

It has taken me a while, but with some help from Tim, I finally got the beast on the road. Switched over the suspension as well a few bits and pieces from the 318i. Hell, I even found some time to give her a good wash. She drives like a dream.

The reason the engine was smoking and the car was blown off in the first place ?

5 litres too much oil in the engine.

Well here are a few Pics of her.

Enjoy

How the F&^% do you get 5 liters too much oil in there some one didn't know how to read the dipstick? Wow! nice score for a two door heheh! I like the scottish style pattern in the seats very nice.....very nice.

**Blackice** · 10-13-2009, 06:37 PM

Yes they are powder coated, a place in North Vancouver did them..... I think it was only 35 bucks to do the Valve cover. Although If I did it again, I think I would get them ceramic coated. Kevin had his header done in ceramic and it looks very nice..... Here is the thread

Enjoy !

Wow that header looks clean enough to eat off of! Cheap price too! When I get my head redone, I may get them to coat my manifold, or get a another one and get that one done. How is the space in the back seat being a two door? That scottish pattern rocks too, I tired of looking at tan/llama all day long in my bimmer.

Hey-U · 10-15-2009, 01:19 AM

Well done Dave. The car looks great.

No, I picked the car up from a guy on Craig's list. He was a father of a very ungrateful 17 year old, that thought this BMW was a wrecker.

Besides, a guy from NZ, or from Australia wouldn't put 5 liters too much oil in the engine.....
