I think your asking price is a fair one...I just dont have the money right now, nor will I have it anytime soon.

Personally I say just keep it till you return then drop a motor...the new M3 will be out so motor options will be larger and price of older motors should be down some.

I'm thinking of selling the car. Then when i return, BAM, e46 M3.

He wants a HEMI :rolleyes

well have a good time with it... i liked driving the truck when i did... the ladies actually liked the truck a lot... must be all the room

:rofl

I don't want a HEMI. . . you have to special order them if you want a manual . . . and all the used manual Dodge truck have the 4.7L V8 (235hp and 295tq) . . . good for the Dakota . . . SUCKS monkey balls in the Ram 1500.

I'm looking at a 99 and up Silverado. They have the 4.8L LR4 :devillook (sounds familar) 295hp and 295 tq with 5pd transmission. And it has the ability to swallow any V8 Chevy makes . . .

Dustin . . . how about this . . . LR4 heads on ANY LS based V8 makes 9:1 CR . . . can you say boost? ;)

There's a guy in Texas that has a 408 with LR4 heads with a D-1SC making somewhere north of 800hp :eek: :evil2

Damnit! I hate morning traffic. On the way to work this morning and some idiot cuts me off and slams on the brakes. Of course, I hit him at like 5 mph. Did no damage to his car really, but mine got fucked up. Hood is all bent up, think I may have broke a headlight clip. Havent really had time to look at it yet, but I do know the radiator isnt cut or leaking so I think its just cosmetic damage. But damn, I cant afford to be fixing all this. LIFE SUCKS!

Dang man, sorry to hear that. More body to parts to buy now huh? :(

Yea...MIGHT be able to salvage this one, its possible. If not, aftermarket vented FG hood. :devillook

Vents. . . . :buttrock

Vents. . . . :buttrock

Just figured it up...about 2K + shipping in parts alone for OEM replacements.

I think I see aftermarket hood, projector Z headlights in my future. :devillook

sheesh, for that price I'd think I would see a running e30 in my future. :)

sheesh, for that price I'd think I would see a running e30 in my future. :)

And leave the Z3 busted? Negative. FG vented hood, projector headlights, car one color, and maybe a few other mods depending on the estimate.

wow dude, hate to hear it... i'm paranoid as hell when driving in traffic around here

I went thru that earlier in the summer, I got rearended by a lady in here new car, like bought it 20 minutes ago new, I lucked out since she went under me, it only got my exhaust, bumper gastank etc, but my trailer hitch killer her car, radiator, support, hood, plastic intake plenum(sp?), I got a estimate for $3200, got the money, shopped around some, got it fixxed for a little under $2k.

The bodyshop across from Pulliam ford gave me the highest estimate of them all, Im just saying.......

Dustin, TCKR has a carbon fiber Z3 hood now...I think Pete said it weighed about 20 pounds or something like that.

Got me to thinkin' about SM2.

as much as i hate dealing with traffic stuff... i wouldn't mind getting a little bump in the front so i could snag a nice M3 bumper that i've been falling in love with

With the luck we have been dealing with lately, it would be more than a lil bump :(

When Dustin was telling me about his car. . . I was like. . I can't be that bad. . .You are over reacting. . . When I saw it . . . .I rescended everything I said . . .

not sure of price...I was told about it when I was talking suspension stuff with him.

Next time I call, I'll ask.

well, hopefully everything works out for you...

i have to buy my parts the old fashion way $$$

Why can't you work here?

Saw your car at olins a couple weeks ago... why are you selling???? The market sucks for selling cars right now, expecially modified cars...


Is anyone around here interested in some 18" BBS CH's for 1500. or 1000 + stock contours??? Let me know...

Well, Im going to end up letting insurance handle it and just putting it into a shop. If I do the work I may end up missing Eurofest and I dont wanna risk that.

Anyone know a body shop in Cola that once insurance cuts them the check, will install aftermarket parts instead of parts they quoted? I want to install ProjectorZs and maybe the FG hood, instead of OEM lights and hood.

You do know that a FG hood will put you into SM2 in Autocross don't you?

oh you guys and your autocrossing... makes me jealous

(speaking of that chip earlier, i just bought an AA chip today... and PJ, i can't work because this whole "calculus" thing is kicking my ass like none other)

You do know that a FG hood will put you into SM2 in Autocross don't you?

Yep, but it will also be 700 bucks cheaper. And right now money > autox.
Besides, Im not sure if I will be autox'ing the Z3 next season or not. Still havent decided.

We will see what the body shop is willing to do.

. . . this whole "calculus" thing is kicking my ass like none other

Damn. . .been there done that . . . :(

Mike . . .you get your ticket yet for Petit Le Mans?

Damnit, no Petit Le Mans for me. :(

PJ, My magic 8ball says you want to be at the gates around 6:45am Wednesday morning. And of course I got my tickets fool. I just haven't decided whether I'm driving or not. I pulled the ABS controller on my car out last night to be shipped off so if I drive I have to cover up the open terminals on the ABS pump and put the intake back on. Did you see the Bimmerstrasse information? They start accepting cars on Friday, I'm sure we;ll get in there too for secure parking. I assume we're gonna leave 3amish Wednesday morning then?

Well I was thinking. . . if both of us drive. . . we can leave the track if we need to and leave one car as a spot holder :)

4ish. . . fiveish. . . I just wanna be there before the IMSA GT3 Cup Challenge Practice Session . . .that starts at 10am . . .

According to Sandy (telephone chic at RA), all the good infield parking will be might be gone by 9-10am . . .

Yeah I been looking over the schedule. I'm cool with whatever time. I don't wanna be taking the E30 so whether I drive or not depends on if I put teh 540 back together and safely wrap up all the electrical stuff for the ABS. I have a feeling that without the controller I will be without a speedometer also which is not a good thing when following you.

These two are taking about Petit Le Mans which is the ALMS race at Road Atlanta. And its next week/weekend.

ah... well, i'll be at eurofest without a doubt

ah... well, i'll be at eurofest without a doubt

As will I, hopefully with a car to AutoX...and maybe a friend. :devillook

I got a guy that just started working with me this week that will be competing with us next year for sure. His car won't be through customs until after Eurofest but he's very interested in hanging out and racing with us. It's 98 M Roadster with some nice mods. I believe he can run nicely in SM2.

The more the merrier :)

Customs? If its a RHD Roady...Imma kill him at the first AutoX and steal his car.

Update On The Car: Got an estimate..body shop says there is no real way to sneak in the aftermarket stuff, so its going back OEM. Also, they cant have the top painted and it be covered under insurance, so I think while the car is in the shop, I may paint the hardtop myself. So everything should be done at once, and they said it should be good for EuroFest. And I'll be able to run in E-Stock still. With a one colored car. Lets keep the fingers crossed!

Sheesh tell you insurance company you want the check and then spend it how you feel. The insurance company doesn't HAVE to deal directly with the shop. I always give them the estimates and demand a check and then get it fixed where and how I feel like.

Yeah, they just sent me a check, over night too, and I could spend it as I see fit...
what company are you dealing with?

Thats no longer the case with state farm...they have had too many frauds or something like that. I'd tried that route. Im not complaing..OEM is fine. I just want the car back and looking good.

that sucks, I didnt feel bad about it with the lady that hit me, she was threatening me and stuff, then she callled 911 after I had already called, and she told them a crazy drunk driver hit her and she was afraid for her life. I was lucky there was a nice guy that stopped who saw it all and confirmed my side of the story....
Sucked seeing the trooper pull up, get out with his hand on his gun and tell you to put your hands on your hood:eek:

Its going good...the shop ordered all the parts on friday, expect them to be in this week. The car should be in the shop first or second week of Oct. And while its in there, we are gonna paint the hardtop on our own. It all should be finished by Eurofest.

Looks like my AC compressor locked up over the weekend. Just got back my estimate from Philips

Parts/Labor $1488

I JUST dumped a good bit of savings into finishing up my daughter's room... anyone have a suggestion on
a) reputable, better-price local company to do the work or
b) most inexpensive replacement (OEM) parts online/local to have either
b1) Philps install it, and I pay labor, or
b2) alternate suggested mechanic perform the operation....

Few things. How much did they quote on the actual parts? I assume dryer container is the reciever dryer you mentioned.

Here is my quote from where I order stuff:

Compressor - $571.63 (60.00 Core)
Dryer - $153.85
AC Belt - $20.83

TOTAL $806.31 + Shipping

Not sure what Philips is charger for labor. May wanna check with Imports Only. Its who we all use/know. Call up Olin & Jay, and tell him Perry & Dustin sent ya.

Dunno... was too shellshocked to asked. 'total parts and labor' was how it was presented.

BimmerBoyZ3, sorry just saw your reply.

I'll call back and get prices... thanks for the heads up.

Oh, also daughter's Turning 2 years old Saturday. :-)

BimmerBoyZ3, sorry just saw your reply.

:rofl

Damn, just outta my age range. :D

Looks like the second guy gave me more information... same ultimate result of $1488 for parts labor... but here's the breakdown:

AC Compressor $672
AC Belt $25
AC Tensioner (spelling?) $54
AC Pully $41
Dryer (yes dryer container/reciever) $181
O-Rings $8
+ Freon (included ?)

That comes to a total parts list of $981
With tax comes to: $1039.86

Which means labor is: $ 448.14

... whatcha got? :D

Oh... btw, told them to go ahead and cut the other belt so that I can at least drive it while I get my finances in order... luckily summer's over and wont need it. Said they would do that for me, just will have no AC (which i don't have now) and no Defrost. I'm ok with that for now.

sounds like AC delete mod FTW

good luck with that man

Hey Jake. This is Corey. Just wanted to say what is up, and we need to go for a drive soon. Glad there is another bimmer in the car club. By the way, I live about a five minute walk from bates.

Hi folks!

keep checking this thread to see if you ever meet during the week somewhere for drinks & such. I am local and would like to meet some other BMW owners and noticed the Oct. 15th date but I have scuba classes to teach that weekend. Is there another meet date or casual day that is planned?

Please let me know ~

Thanks

Lets plan for one day next week we can go get lunch downtown somewhere.

I'm down for lunch... I work downtown. Corner of Main/Washington

There is a great hibachi japanese place downtown on Rosewood, across the street from Midlands Tech. Its between the Blockbuster and Sounds familiar. Me and PJ love it.

Also, there is Carolina Wings down there we go to on an occassion. Other than that, we are open to suggestions.

You guys got any ideas or does one of these sound good?

hibachi sounds great to me...

Hey I was just wondering where a good car wash is thats close to USC? Also, my car is in the Bull St. garage on campus and i've seen a boston green M3 in there. Just seeing if anyone on here owns it.

Was also looking to get some routine maintenance things done and was reccomended Imports Only. Any comments on this? Been going up to Virginia Tech often to see my girlfriend so I've been putting some wear on the car and would like to get an oil change/fluids checked out.

Thanks in advance.

Austin

Lunch today at 12:30!

And we can do another lunch next week to accomidate others. But I want hibachi today! :devillook

Austin, sent ya a PM back.

About Imports Only...in short...yes. They are a superb shop with two excellent enthusiast who work there. Olin does a lot of track racing, and Jay is an avid AutoXer. I would trust my car there, and many others have already done it. I know PJ has taken two cars there, and I believe Mike had some work done there as well. We visit the shop often, bunch of good guys though.

Come to lunch today if ya can and meet us.

i'll be there... i'll PM you my phone number just in case

You have mine if you need anything or get lost right?

I'm down... though if you're looking for a 'new' hibachi place, one oped up a few weeks ago right in the Vista, called Hibachi Express -- it's on the second floor, above the old Vista Brewing Company -- Good because it doesn't get too busy 'yet' ... and the food's pretty good. Then again I would like to try another place :-)

So yeah, count me in.

Yes, a quick machine + hand-detailed car wash is about 3 miles from you. If you're heading out of town on blossom, cross the bridge... the road takes a sharp turn to the left, just after the large ford (chevy?) dealership on the left... You'll notice at that curve, on the right and Exxon station. It has a carwash there. I think it's "Franks Carwash" -- they do a pretty good job.

Secondly, there's a car wash near 5-points on Gervais St. It's one of the oldest ones... same style, machine + hand-detail. I think their slogan is/was "Best Hand Jobs in Town" ... :-)

They're on the sharp hill (on the right) just before you get to harden street from downtown.

I just washed and waxed my car yesterday :-) ... at home.

Good luck.

lunch was a success

now i want to autox more and more each day... can't wait until eurofest so i can catch a ride with somebody

hey man... i don't think i've ever seen your car around... the only other M's i've seen are an anvus M3 with no mods and a dakar M3/4 also modless

.. wait, i may have seen your car at a bank once though... maybe not

we'll have to meet up sometime and go for a drive, i'd love to see how much more powerful the M3 is than my 325is

(i'm in bates... my car's easy to find because i think i'm the only black E36 and nobody else has clears)

I'm in Greenville. I would love to get together with some of you!

where in greenville did you live... and where in USC are you staying?

Hey, now it makes sense, I see your car everytime I'm at bates, it's beautiful man. Was just there dropping off my friend like 15 mins ago and was admiring it. I have seen the boston green M3 in the bull street garage and also a guy with a nice silver 4 door m3 with lots of mods had me pull over and we talked for a few mins about him wanting to sell the car. I'd definitely be down to meet up and checkout your car. I'm in mcbryde and am down at bates/bates west a good amount with friends and pledge brothers. Are you going to the meet in a couple weeks? I might be visiting the gf at VT that weekend but if im around im definitely gonna swing by.

That was me... How are you enjoying Cola thus far...

where in greenville did you live... and where in USC are you staying?

I live about 1 mile from main street, in the Historic District. You know where that is? I will be living in an apartment when I transfer to USC next semester. Not sure exactly where yet though. Where do you live in Greenville?

That was me... How are you enjoying Cola thus far...

columbia is a pretty fun place. 5 points is great, but I made the mistake of lending my id to a frat brother and he got arrested with it, so I won't be going downtown for a while. Definitely a great place to be during football season though.

Any luck with the sale?

Mmmm....Im hungry...whats for lunch? :devillook

there was a '95 white LTW after the auburn game when i was walking home... he was stopped at a light when i was walking across... the guy was cool, he waved to me (but that's because i opened my mouth and yelled "lightweight M3!!!" and stared at it the whole walk across the road)

LOL . . . .

I only have half of it done . . . it does involve two really long swords. . . .and possibly a gun or two . . . oh and some Armor. . . .:alright

Oh, BTW PJ, that was me who was playing SWBFII in your PS2 yesterday. Stopped by mid-day to work out and played.

Also, stole a turkey sandwich. :devillook

Dustin . . . I think I'll be taking my key back . . .

where is your Home!! link supposed to go, PJ? its not working for me

Home!! is my lil BMW site I'm hosting out of my house . . .

But Time Warner Cable sucks . . . So only a few people can get to it . . .

BTW . . .Time Warner Cable sucks . . .


They told me a router upstream of their network is blocking ICMP traffic. But I sent them reports of a RoadRunner router blocking ICMP, TCP, and UDP traffic . . . a$$holes couldn't troubleshoot a network if the answers were scripted to them.

[GEEK]nice burn[/GREEK]

i could have told you time warner would suck... actually, it's implied

Hmm I host on mine and never had problems. Send me your site and I'll host it. I got dns also if you want me to host that for you to keep the IP's updated. My IP only changes maybe once a year.

I haven't had a problem with hosting for that last 5 years. . . it just recently started. It started when added some routers and re-subnetted this side of Friarsgate . . . Dustin escaped it . . .

It's the switch over here that they are using; the TWC Van is always posted at it . . . .

Since RR was only thing in the area back in 2K . . . I had no choice . . . DSL is here now so I will switch . . . When I had it in 99 it NEVER went out . . .a touch slower than cable . . . but I'll take reliability anyday . . . besides . . .I know some of techs and have str8 shot to them if I run into anything. . .

Dustin . . . I think I'll be taking my key back . . .

You are too old for me...and too white. :stickoutt

:biglaughb

Wow, I wouldn't touch DSL with a 50 foot pole anymore. Mine was always out and my damn IP reset once a week when I lived on 378. When the re subnetted everything 4 or 5 months ago I got faster and haven't had a single loss problem since. Sux you're having issues.
