Lets not forget the one we love this season.

What present would you like to buy for your Bimmer ?

320iCar · 11-23-2008, 01:58 PM

i've already bought her some new rims for the spring (when it stops raining and such) and im going to be lowering her!. i have the lowering springs. i've had them for like over 2 months now. just haven't put them in

**Blackice** · 11-23-2008, 02:12 PM

What springs did you get ?

I have the rest of my turbo parts coming in sometime soon, so maybe sometime in the new year the beast will be turboed

320iCar · 11-23-2008, 04:39 PM

I gave mine a camshaft performance enhancement, can't wait to get the head back on and fire her up

crunk3 · 11-23-2008, 05:41 PM

maybe some new snow tires so i dont R3V into a tree or ditch

The "race" car is getting pretty tight (but she can always eat some more cash) but sway bars from IE are on the list. It's a hard call between the sways and the team dynamics 13lb wheels. Both will be done for spring trackdays (now that there is no Montreal GP to go to again).

I had the 535i in the snow today and despite the feirce Nokian R's it needs the junk in the trunk to get out of snow piles at the mountain.

knowing how car repairs usulay go, I'll need to get a bunch of boring crap instead of the toys. The starter is being cranky ( wakka wakka) and might need to be done first.

Also looking for Thule for the 88 535i for four snowboards (2x kids, 2x adults) if anyone has one for sale?

Craig,

What track do you run on ? Mission ?

320iCar · 11-24-2008, 12:48 AM

the drop with the bav-auto springs is about 2" front, 1.5" rear. haha but im just getting the springs in for now. i dont have half the worth of the car to drop into new coil overs or anything. im not x-crossing it anyways so i'll be fine

**Blackice** · 11-24-2008, 12:52 AM

2 " drop, Wow ! That will slam it.

That will be one very nice car when it has new a new stance
