Go to bmwcca.org. Click Join :D

There is a group there, but I don't know how many.

Lots of members in the Cola area. I don't get over to this part of the board too often though.

Thom, Blythewood/Columbia/Cayce/Chapin/S. Congaree.

I'm in the CCA, just haven't been to a meeting in a while. We need to set up another get together soon.

Doh, I totally missed out (June 14th). Well, I just picked up my new car. 00' M roadster, titansilber, no plates. When is the next meet?

No Problem.
Next one is July 12th (always 2nd tuesday). I should be bringing a safety video from the scca that has some head and neck restraint info in it.

http://www.sandlapperbmw.org/calendar.htm

If anyone is ever up for an autoX or cruise, let me know.

I'm up for a drive whenever the car is back out of the shop.

Any Bimmerheads in the Columbia SC or surrounding area, come out to the Sonic on Harbison tonight and/or tomorrow night. My car won't be out there till next weekend, but I will be, so if I see you, I'll come up and speak. There's a guy with an M3 that usually comes out, and another fellow with a E46 who I haven't talked to much. A friend of mine has a M-Roadster (silver w/ blue top). He comes out a lot. I want to see more BMW's!

I don't know about today or tomm, but i'm sure i'll be there next week. I was there last week with Maurio and his M3. Nice. Let's up the Bimmer crowd next week.

What's going on today y'all?

Never realized there was so many CCA guys in Upstate SC, may have to trot down there.

ya ill be at the next meeting aslong as nothing comes up and ill see if bav6 will come..

Alright, tomm- Harbison Blvd? Who's gonna show.

Chas-town 'ere.
i'm in for whatever whenever

I am in Florence. I would be up for a meet sometime soon. Went to CMP yesterday, had a blast.

Then we need to set up a real SC meet sometime next month. Any suggestions on the meeting spot? Somewhere where we can do something(race) would be good.

I need to do a shop day soon, to do a few little things. A few aftermarket apperance things, and I want to adjust my cams. Anyone up for a shop day?

I just wanted to say whatls up to all my SC homies. I make the trip down to Rock Hill to see my family every once in a while. Maybe I'll come to a meet if you guys have one soon and my time permits.

I'll be a new Columbia resident in about a month. I'm sure I'll be meeting up with you guys.

Definately. I'm trying to get some people to hang out, but the pickings are slim. I figured a shop day would definately draw some interest though!

No meets as of yet huh? I'm heading out to Harbison or where ever is best tomm.

Very nice to see there's a nice sized crew. Should get something together.

I'm going to be out on Harbison Blvd tonight. If you're in the area and not out of gas, why don't you stop by? There are a lot of car afficionados that meet out behind Sonics and Rush's. I'll be out there hanging with my domestic buddies, but I always make a point to try to get in touch with the BMW guys/gals!

If you want a local events forum, might I suggest http://www.carolinarides.com. It's focused on SC/NC car enthusiasts.

I might head out there tonight. I might take my M# or wifey's Audi A3. We'll see i have enough gas. If i do stop by.

Question- Who's going to Nopi?

Saw a gorgeous old white shark-nosed bimmer downtown at USC yesterday. Don't know who it was, but it was damn sexy. Are you on here?

Guess this explains why I get the stare every time I go to Sonic. :cool

That may be it. I may even be the one giving the car looks. I have this thing for BMW's....which explains why I'm on this forum.

Also, if noone's out at Harbison, a few of us have started going to the Lexington Food Lion. Again, I encourage y'all to check out CarolinaRides.com (http://www.carolinarides.com)

You have more than just a 'thing' for BMWs. You've got a full-blown obsession. Just admit it.

One more thing...here I am. Happy?

Hey, I met you when you were tryin to get some bmw guys together at world market. I will be out there one of these days, I am just finally getting my engine together (built s/m50) give me another month and it will be running.

Also, if you go by Philips auto on two notch rd, they are working on I think craig leiberman's old blue widebody e46 m3, it is sweet, worth the trip to go see it.

hey...haven't posted here yet. i'm up here in Rock Hill. me and my cousin have modded e30s, and the only other guy i know that mods his bmw here has 4! e36 M3, 2 M Coupes, and a e30...i forgot his name but i've seen him around a couple of times. we were gonna start a GTG sometime but never got one. i am down w/ anything in SC, then some stuff over in ATL, and up in Charlotte...

im in myrlte beach, anybody else near there?

It's nice to hear from someone from Rock Hill. I graduated from Northwestern High back in 88'. I still come back home about three times a year to visit my family. Keep modding those rides.

I dont know where there are not more Charleston people on here. I see at least a dozen e36 and e46's here in a normal day, yet I havent seen a single person from Charleston on the boards :/

There is a mean M3 that I see every once and a while, looks like its techno violet with black rims, would love it if that guy was on the boards. That machine is beastly.

Well....when I had my 330ti, I never saw any bimmer enthusiasts from Charleston, either. Most of the ones around here are snobs and don't seem very interested in it.

I'm also in Charleston, and would have to agree.... most people here driving BMW's don't seem to be driving them for the handling...

I can't seem to find any car enthusiasts here in Chas in general...with the obvious exception of the mustang/camaro/old school mopar guys at lowcountry dragway...

I was in the Southern Mustang And Ford club here in Charleston when I had my Lightning. Yeah, you can find them at Low Country alot. I'm not really into the prices of Low country and some of their restrictions.

If you ever go to Dorchester Dragway on Sun. or Wed. you will see my Evo there. I have a few friends with 1G DSM's, too. I'll be there tomorrow night around 730-8pm.

Are you a member of 4g63hp.com? It has a section for the "Low Country" in there.

I've only been to Dorchester a couple of times, both times they were not running. You know how good their website is.

I read quite a few dsm sites, but 4g63hp.com isn't really one of them, maybe I should give it another look. Did you get your evo at Chas mitsu, I came very close to buying an evo from them. If you guys are going to be out at dorchester, I'll try to come out....

Don't mean to jump in the middle of the conversation but just wanted to say hello. I'm living in Greenville and will be here until Christmas. Anyone else in the area? I drive an Arctic Silver E36 M3. Let me know. Always looking for some people to shoot up to the mountains with.

Dorchester's website hasn't really been maintained in a long, long time!! The phone number isn't even correct anymore.

4G63hp has alot of Charleston guys on it. I don't really post much there, but that's because it's members are more 1G owners.

I did buy my evo from CHS mitsu. The service manager there rocks. He doesn't give a hoot about mods as long as you aren't running stand-alone or piggy-back.
Suspension, TBE, intakes, BOV/DV, are free game. I don't know about MBC/EBC, though, so I would just take them back off for major work. . He's an ex-VR4 owner and is really cool about warranty work.

If Dorchester is open tonight, then I will be there. I just call ahead to see if they are open.

What time do they run at Dorchester on Sunday??

I didn't know it was this many SC members here. .. . .

I'm in Irmo . . .10 mins outta Columbia :wave

Irmo here too.

Im down at clemson....

Well . . . . We should plan a meet or something :)

Spartanburg

I'm down for a meet. Soon i hope, it's getting cold. We have enough bimmers. How does Columbia sound?

Redrum, I met you 2 weeks ago out at Harbison. I'll have my car out there this weekend, hopefully we can get a few more Bimmers out there. I've been trying to hang out with you guys more, but no one shows up. I'll be out in Irmo again this Saturday, so if anyone is in the area at night, come by. Due to lack of a better place, we're behind the Sonic on Harbison Blvd. Look for my 318ti, if you roll up, I'll come speak.

Depending if my girl wants me to come watch her work at Platinum or not, I may or may not head down there this weekend. Been a while since I was down in that area. Also gonna depend if the head is off my car or not.

-Dustin

Damn, what a ball and chain. Please come watch me work at Platinum. it's so boring there!

Damn, what a ball and chain. Please come watch me work at Platinum. it's so boring there!

There's also the BMW CCA meeting Friday @ 7. Grecian Gardens in West Columbia.


LoL. Actually, she just started dancing up there and wants me to come watch her. I figure no big deal, I'll come out with a free lap dance. Im considering the get together on sat. Friday night is out as my dad is coming into town. If I come out sat, I will be in the silver z3 with the shitty paint status. (Damn SUVs and there inability to drive).:rolleyes

If I'm done with some clients I'll be there!!

Look for either a 99 Hellrot M3 or 93 Mauritus Blue 325is (with bad clear coat LOL)

Looks like we might have the beggining of a mini-meet this Sat. Hell yes I'll be out there. Look for REDRUM. Later.

Tonight, Irmo SC, Harbison Blvd. behind Sonics. I'll be in the black hatch 318ti.

What time we plannin to be out there?

I'll be there. Around 9:30 or 10:00?

it was great to meet you guys, and see the twins. Hopefully we can get more people to come out next time.

For those of you not on CarolinaRides.com, that group is doing a photoshoot down in Charleston. I'm going just to do a trip and get out of town, but all are invited. We're planning on Nov. 20th, details TBD. There are enough of us in the Columbia area to have a good convoy driving down from Cola->Chucktown. (6 or 7 as of right now.) Let me know if you're interested, and I'll put your name on the list. (Also, PM me a contact number.)

Same here!!

Just keep me in the loop for the Chuck Town Shoot. . .

The twins did look good together :buttrock

I showed up right as everyone was leaving. I talked with Redrum and got his #, but my friends FC3S was down and I spent most of the night working on it. Hope everyone had a good time and I will try to get up with you guys next time.

Wasup fellas! Thanx to all the bimmer drivers that showed up( late or not). Had a great time. I'm gonna try to make that shoot. The twins will look great on a photo shoot. should be fun. keep in touch.

Bimmerboy (and any others reading this), you interested in coming to a photoshoot/road trip down to Charleston? Right now there's 12 of us, mostly domestics, but there's 3 Bimmers so far. We're planning on going down on the 20th, meeting up at Eagle Aviation at the Columbia Metro airport, then forming a convoy to leave by 1:30-ish.

Would love to make it for the shoot, but the car isnt in shootable condition right now. Ive I get off work tho I may just ride down with you guys.

That would be cool. I'm guessing the drive will be the best part. Show 'em how that Z runs on the highway!

Also, I may or may not be out at Harbison this weekend, I'm going to be swapping transmissions in a VW so that may be a bit time-consuming. I'll try to make it out. If you need my cell # shoot me a PM.

Looks like no Harbison for me this weekend either . . .

Midterm on Monday :complain . . . But work continues on the Bimmers :)

If get up early on Saturday :shifty and finish the work on the Bimmers and get some study time in, I might be able to swing by . . .

Imma try my best to go, but it all depends.

On a side note, anyone know where I can find a spare (blown or whatever) M44 motor for a build? Would love to get a great deal, and I have a guy willing to ship me one at a good price, but would rather skip the shipping and get it locally.

Anything happening in the upstate?

Whats the count on the Harbison crew tonight? I wanted to see if its even worth going out there tonight....

So who all is gonna make it?

Thom, you can finish the tranny swap tomorrow and PJ you can finish studying tomorrow. No excuses! ;)

PJ you can finish studying tomorrow. No excuses! ;)
:lol

If I come out, I will be in the 325is. The M threw a CEL last night and I'm not quite sure what it is yet. I'm going to Autozone to get a reader to at least find out what it is. . . . Peake will be here next week :( .

So if I do come out there . . . look for a Blue E36 325is with shitty clear coat :cool

No, but feel free to bring that phalic icon down to the metro and hang out with us, that was I wont be the only bastard BMW child, although mine is prettier, it being topless and all. :stickoutt

Sounds good. I get off work at 6ish. Lemme know if ya need any help working on the bimmers. Im always up to volenteer a hand in wrenching.

Try to come out tho, it will be a break from all the wrenching and studying that you guys are doing. I didnt get to meet anyone last weekend as I was wrenching on the FC3S till 2am in the parking lot.

Imma call up some other guys to see if they are in town this weekend and wanna come down to harbison also.

Sounds good. I get off work at 6ish. Lemme know if ya need any help working on the bimmers. Im always up to volenteer a hand in wrenching.


I found out what the CEL was. . .I needed to clean the MAF . . . Thank goodness. :)

Thanks for the offer man, bt I'm done for the day :cool

Maybe when it's ime to do the center support and guibo, I'll give ya a shout.

If everything goes well I should be out there around 9ish . . . .

Anyway, I should be out tonight...prob more around 10ish.

Im on AIM at work SN is XvSlim if anyone wants to chat random BMW stuff since Im bored out of my mind. :( :mad :help

I'm dropping a motor (and transmission) back in the VW tonight, if you want to help with that... lol. If it's drivable by tonight (slim chance, but still a chance) I'll bring the Thing. If not, then I'll try to make it out in the ti.

If you need to contact me, you can IM me and it'll forward it to my cell... SN's gooten1. (That way I don't have to put my number all over teh interweb.)

i might swing by.......

Damn car wanted to be a PITA. Starter went out so I am without a vehicle. So it seems we all had our fair share of wrenching to do. :mad

I swear I will make it out one weekend and actually get time to just hang out.

We might need to do a Bimmer Day . . . . grill and all :cool

Or from the looks of it . . . a shop day :shifty

Why dont we try organizing an SC Bimmerfest Cookout.:buttrock

You've got the curb...the yard...the neighbors yard.... :devillook


I wish I could use the yard and backyard . . . .My landlord is a bastard about the grass . . . LOL I used to wash the car on the lawn (water the grass and wash car @ the same time :cool) and he complained about it . . . He's a bastard (but the rent is cheap ;) )

If we were to have it at my house . . . that would be cool I gotta deck too:)

If someone would donate to the "Help PJ get a Truck" fund, I would be able get a bigger grill, transport it ANYWHERE, and finally get a crotch rocket:buttrock

Will you please help, operators are standing by . . .:redspot

LMAO about the landlord, but its understandable.

Well if you are offering up your house. I guess we can pitch in and buy the food, sounds like a fair trade to me. Anyone else interested besides me and PJ, or is it destined to be a gruesome two-some?

Hey PJ I have sex with my female landlord! LMAO!! Kidding(she's my WIFE), I'll offer my house. Plenty of panking and enough room for about 30 people(trust me, had about that much people on my B-day) and i have a big enough yard to grill. Let me know if y'all wanna do this and i'll work it out with my "landlord".

Well just let me know what the dates are and who all is interested in it besides me, PJ and Redrum?

I'm game! I have a truck if you need to tow a grill...we have a big grill at work I can borrow if we need it. Otherwise, let me know a date, and I'll work my schedule around it.

This sounds like a plan!!!!

Do we wanna shoot for after T-Giving? You know a brotha gotta go home eat some of Granny's cookin' :)

Def. after Thanksgiving, things should be less crazy then. However, the later in the year it gets, the colder it's probably gonna be. Then again, this is SC, anything's possible with this weather.

No shit, I just got back from a midnight cruise with the top down....in the middle of November....wtf!:buttrock

After thanksgiving is game for me...

Besides if its cold for the first one...just gives us something to look forward to the next time. Seems this could make for a fun monthly event. Especially once AutoX season opens up. Have an AutoX and then off to a grill out. :redspot

Well, PJ since you are supplying the house, I guess you get to give us a few preliminary dates and we can go from there.

Dates. . . .any weekend . . .LOL

Seriously, I'll have a better grasp of my schedule after T-Giving.

You all don't know, a brotha is down for the grill. I've grill in light rain and in the snow. . .weather don't affect the grill :buttrock

Auto-X and grill make good companions :D

So where is this going down at? Redrum's or PJs?

Im down to do the cooking if someone needs to step up.

Once location is figured, we can decided on dates and menu. But I think after thanksgiving is the best time to check out schedules.

And yes....autoX + Grill = :buttrock :alright :redspot

Flip for it. One weekend over PJ's one weekend over mine. Grillin' and AutoXing, what more can u ask for? (maybe strippers, but we'll work on that)

Works for me:thumbup:

Im living the life then, as my girlfriend is a stripper. :stickoutt And I might bring her along...and no, none of you bastards get a private dance. :nono ;)

Well whoever decides to host the first one, start thinking of some dates and then we can go from there.

Just found out the photoshoot is sunday....might be able to work something out, we will see.

Anyway, have fun at the photoshoot and be sure to represent the Metro Bimmer group well. :alright :redspot :buttrock

no, none of you bastards get a private dance. :nono ;)

Yea yea

Hey, btw...did you get that Peake tool in? The z3 had a tantrum this morning during the start...and now the check engine light is on.:help If ya have the code reader, mind if we throw it on the Zed to diagnoise it?

Thanks.

When you wanna come by and pick it up . . .I get home tonight around 10:30ish and tomorrow about 6:30ish

Hey, Im from lugoff, I would be interested in coming out if yall have a meet, the e30 isnt running right now, but depending on when the get together is it might be able to hobble out - Graham
PS. PJ325i I sent you an email about your e30, I am definately interested

Even if the e30 isnt up come out. I may bring my 300ZX to the meet at PJs if we have it back by then, just so I can show it off and possibly make a sale.

Anyway, after thanksgiving we can come up with a date and go from there.

Bimmerboy u need to bring that Z3 out to the shoot.

Bimmerboy u need to bring that Z3 out to the shoot.

The Zed is mauled right now due to unskilled southern women drivers in overlarge, poorly designed and american engineered SUVs. Therefor it is not photo worthy in its current state. Plus the top is f'ed due to jealous young teenagers mad they I was dating there women and driving a pimp ass car, but that can be solved by simply employing the power of the drop top.

I would love to go tho, but right now, things dont look plausable, unfortunately. Although I believe a few guys, Thom and Im gonna drag PJ along, are gonna try to go to the Harbison lot on the eve of saturday. I will bring my stripper girlfriend along to taunt you all with the thoughts of what activities and endevours I will be divulging in later that evening. So then you can add "Has A Hot Girlfriend' on your list of reasons to envy me, right along with "Drives a Hotter BMW Than I." That is if she doesnt have to work, although I will still be divulging at any rate. :redspot

So Redrum, come to the lot and lets all get harrassed by the cops as a unified german automotive enthusiast group.




BTW...my stripper girlfriend says :boobies Wee!

Wow a guy in chapin. Come bother me and possible buy a cellphone from me on Saturday between 10am-6pm. I work at the Cingular store on 76 near the Biker Bar. The store that the cop sits at all the time as you come into Chapin from White Rock. My Z3 should be out there. If not, Im not there.

Zinzimma, a lot of car enthusiasts are cruising down to Charleston this Sunday. We're meeting up around 1 @ Eagle Aviation at the Columbia metro airport. Let me know if you're interested.

Also, we (just us Bimmer guys) are planning a cook-out, on a date TBD...some time after Thanksgiving.

I might stop by and say whats up but I am a Verizon man, haha. And most of the time I am in Columbia for school


Yeah guys lemme know when everything is going on, I had no clue there were BMW fanatics in SC....haha And I doubt I will make the drive to Charleston, I will probably be too hung over from Saturday's big game. But I will make it to something just lemme know!!!

SCHWEET!!!

This getting bigger by the moment. . .

Thom - What time do we have to be in the Chuck? I get outta church @ 1

I think the car will be ready Saturday night . . . I just finished up the shocks and struts on it. . .Got the Center bearing and guibo to go . . .

Graham325 - If I'm done with the M on Saturday, I'll snap some shots for you . . .

So does anyone know of a fender roller around cola?

So does anyone know of a fender roller around cola?

Nope....but I heard rumor you can rent a tool from TireRack. Not sure how true this is but that way you can get a few people who want them rolled to chip in.

I was going to roll the fender on the M . . . 255s in the rear :buttrock

But since I'm running stock suspension . . . I'll wait until later.

yeah you can rent the tool from a lot of places, i just want to take it somewhere so if something gets fucked up i dont have to pay for it. and yeah i am runnin 265 in the rear and over big bumps or if i get two people in the back it rubs like hell:nono

Sounds like a trip to NC or GA . . .

Have you tried calling around in Charleston, Greenville, or Spartanburg?

The plan was to meet up at 1, then leave by 2, but I think that's gotten pushed back a bit. The majority of us will be meeting up then to eat, then waiting for 2 people to get out of church and meet up with us, so at this rate, it'll be closer to 3 when we leave.

Im not going to the charleston shoot, its definate now. The Zed is acting up and has a CEL and someone didnt call me friday so I could steal there peake tool. :devillook In fact, I think he should come drive to chapin and bring it to me at the Cingular Store while Im working. :stickoutt J/K.

Have fun tomorrow and rep for the metro good. I'll just have to live with staying locked in the house with the significant other. :evil2 Darn!:rolleyes


Anyone going to freeze their asses off at Harbison tonight?

Aight, just call the Cell and I will give ya directions if ya need. I will be here till 6pm. :redspot

Well I threw the peake tool on tonight and it gave me a code for Cam Position Sensor. But the CEL is gone. So if ya dont mind PJ, Imma hold the tool for a few days to see if it comes back.

I will also talk to that guy tomorrow about the m50 manifold for ya. Keep in mind, its just the manifold, so you will still new some small things, but its cool, we can work on that.

While at PJs, we determined I cant play Enthusia for shit. :help

Next time I will bring my memory card and we will throw in GT4 and load up my M Coupe and see whats up. :alright :evil2

Well I threw the peake tool on tonight and it gave me a code for Cam Position Sensor. But the CEL is gone. just use the peake tool to reset the code memory, the code will disapper, and if it reappears, this will be an indication that the cam sensor is not right or that the wiring is the issue (esp if you just repaced it). you need to reset the memory to determine if the sensor is corrected or if there is still some issue.


HTH

While at PJs, we determined I cant play Enthusia for shit. :help

:lol

Don't feel bad . . .It took me a while to get used of it too. . . .

You can hold onto the Peake Tool for while . . .that won't be a problem.

I need that tool to reset my lights. I think I'm getting a second fault, but I'm not sure. I got a weird noise and vibration when I hit the brakes...could be the front rotors, but I'd like to read my codes anyway. So whenever Dustin's done with it, think I could hold it for about 3 minutes, Pj?

It might be the brake pad wear sensors and your pads are eating your rotors. Which isnt good. Might wanna jack and remove wheel and check pronto, especially before leaving for chuck-town.

How was the chucktown shoot?

I had a blast . . .

These guys are freakin wild on the interstate . . .

I can't wait until the next one :buttrock

Mike already sent me some pics. . . .I'll post em when I get outta class tonight . . .

You can use it for a small fee, Thom . . .:D :cool j/k

You can pick it up once Dustin is done with it.

PJ, call me tomorrow and we can arrange everything for the m50 manifold.

Here are some of the pictures I have received so far

Chucktown (http://i-techdevelopment.com/chucktown)

The trip was a blast. I had a great time, the drive down and back was great 'cept for a bit of miscommunication, and just hanging out was cool too. Dinner was a riot... the pics of my car are up on my photobucket site...

Glad to hear everyone had a good time. The pics are decent...I guess I expected a little more bimmer and a lot less RSX. Thom, car is looking good.

Kinda sad I missed it. Next time, we can line one up, I can prob snag us a professional photographer and we can get some great pics.

'cept for a bit of miscommunication

Yeah. . .that curb sure would have made luv to your car. . . :eyecrazy

I'm gonna see if I can get some good handheld talkies for our next trip . . .

I was thinking of trading my wheels on some smaller ones, 18s but maybe for M68s or nice 17s plus cash. lemme know if you guys know anyone interested. These are in VERY good condition! And I will only trade for wheels in very good condition with tires in very good condition. both wheels and tires included

They are TSW Kayalami's

19x8 Front and 19x9.5 TSW Kyalami's (5x120)
235/30/19 Front Ventus & 265/30/19 Ventus Rear
Tires are in good shape, no cupping or anything like that

And I do need a trade on them b/c I sold my stockies. I was looking to downgrade to an 18" or maybe some M68s. Wheels/Tires must be in good shape for trade

F-40\ R-35

Hmmmmm, guess I should check the regional thread more often. I'm in Chas and I had no idea people were getting together. Sounds like you guys had a good time, oh well, maybe next time....

F-40\ R-35

Not what the guy is looking for. Sorry, but I will continue to keep my eyes open.


PJ, I have diagnoised the CEL issue, its def a cam pos. sensor. So, I will return the Peake tool ASAP. Also, still waiting to hear from Matt about that m50 manifold....he's been busy this week with cases (laywer). But he's definately holding it for you.


Also, hope everyone had a great turkey day and enjoy the vacation. Once the recoveries are complete, hopefully we can get rolling on dates for the metro bimmer grill out.

Thanks man! Yeah, looking forward to a grill out

Any date in the works for the grill out?

No prob, D!! I think Thom needed it next . . .

Dates for the grill . . .Dec 10 or 17 . . . I might be autoXing (http://www.scr-scca.com/modules/autox/autox_flyer.php?EventID=84&EventDate=20051203) on Dec 3 @ White Knoll

Graham . . .this is for you. E30 Pics (http://i-techdevelopment.com/bmw/e30)

Thom, I think PJ mentioned you living over on the side of town near clemson road. If so, I have to go get the m50 manifold for PJ from over there. I could meet up and drop the Peake tool to you if you want. Just lemme know.

The e30 looks like just what I am after, how is it mechanically, I remember the clutch needed replacement, how much life does it have left, any thing else?

The grillout sounds great, but I will be out of town on the 17th:( , so hopefully it will end up on the 10th, and later on in the day cause I work til around 4 on saturdays

Whatcha getting in exchange?

Either a 323,540 6sp, or e36 m3

Ok, so tomorrow doing the cookout deal then?

Ok, so tomorrow doing the cookout deal then?

Yea Imma start a new thread.

Alright, so, spread the word that there are SC people here on BF.c, since apparently we're coming out of the woodwork. If you have friends who aren't on this list, let them know that they need to join. It'll be nice to have some BMW's to roll with when I go out.

I agree. There HAS to more more charleston people on the boards here, and if there isnt they should be. I see all kinds of BMWs around here, and not just the typical owners, I'm talking a bunch of nice e36s and e30s that are obviously enthusiast owned.

They are hiding :D

All I know is that in my 3 mile drive to work this working I saw a 318ti in agean blue (I think, rare color I've never seen), a really nice 325is, and a very clean e46 M3. There is also this monster e36 M3 that I see once in a blue moon. Black rims, 5% tint all around, some sort of exhaust, its a beast. I would love to check it out some time

I know there's a Pee Dee group of the Sandlapper BMW CCA, that might be worth a look. You're in luck, their meeting is this week.


Dec. 15, 2005: Charleston Area Club Meeting, 6 PM, Bessinger's BBQ, 1602 Savannah Hwy., West Ashley, Charleston, SC.

Also, there are 3 or 4 318ti's down in Chucktown according to our forum, I haven't met any of them in person though.

Hey Thom . . . you signup for the Recovery party @ the performance center yet?

No, that's $$$ I could be using for one of my 3 project cars! I'm budgeting. I can't afford to eat lunch everyday, but I will be able to afford a bad ass Bimmer, and 2 hella cool VW's...one day.

:lol

I hear ya man!!

I'm planning to go . . .unless I pick up the secret motor I'm looking for.

I'm trying to find out what cars they will let us slide around the Pref Center :D

What's new?

There will be one of the new V-10 M5's there (at the performnce center recovery event), but I don't know if it will be for driving (don't think so) or eye-ing.

What is this recovery event at the performance center everyone is speaking of? :confused

V-10, eh . . .

Gotta send in my stuff TODAY!!!

The recovery event is a good way to meet the the fellow CCA members and hopefully slide some cars around :)

I thought you were a member Dustin? They sent it out in the newsletter. It's' $70 to attend and you bring a gift for the exchange. . . .

Nope, not a CCA member yet. Too busy fixing and buying stuff for the Z to get a membership. Its on my list of to-do's, right after get my hardtop mounting kit, paint the top, bumper, and fender, build and boost motor to 350hp, and buy a house.

Well I know I haven't taken full advantage of the membership yet. . .But the Roundel is good read :D

And I still haven't heard anything about me secret motors yet. . .

If anybody sees an orient blue 740IL in Charleston today that is me...and the family!!!

PJ, let me know when you get that motor in, I'd love to put in some wrench time to help out.

Everyone: This afternoon, Carolina Rides meet/eat for lunch. Carolina Wings in Irmo, 2 p.m.

How the lunch go?

Good, had a good turn out.

Next thing we're planning is a road trip up to the BMW plant in Greer. Anyone interested?

I always wanted to go there. I'm Down!!

Alright, I'm planning on the last weekend in January. Saturday, the 28th. That may change, but that's it for now. Open invitation, we're going to do the whole "meet up and convoy" thing again, meeting in Columbia, then rolling up there as a group.

Gotta save money....you are getting into AutoX season prep time here. If things look up, or my tax refund check comes in, I will be down, but if money is tight, gotta save for the season. :D

Eh, we are cancelling the trip to the BMW plant due to lack of attendees. We are gonna meet up at the Hooters on Two Notch road, in Northeast Columbia. January 14th, 1:30 p.m.

Wasn't that the day of the grill out at my crib?

Yes, but I didn't know what time you were doing your cookout deal. I assumed it was dinner. Yes? No?

So wasup? Grill or Hooters?

So wasup? Grill or Hooters?

I thought the grill out was the 14th and was a dinner thing, since a lot of us work on the weekends.

Hooters for lunch with the CarolinaRides group, then dinner at PJ's for the BimmerForums group.

LOL What a compromise. . . .LOL

I'll only be attending the one at my crib this time :D

There will be a new M3 in the Columbia area! I used to have a black 95 M3, until it was wrecked, but I am picking up an avus Blue M3 from Boston next Wednesday. Look forward to meeting up with other bmw owners. Anyone else go to USC?

Why wasnt I informed:shifty I must be out of the loop.....

I just got back from the wedding in MD, it went well, but now I am broke:( , but should make up for that with Christmas

PJ, I am going to try talk to my Dad when he comes down about the e30, see if he will help me out with the insuffiecient funds:cool

Suhweet. . . .I'm gonna give a wash after XMAS and tackle the Trans and Diff fluid.

She's ready for a test drive whenever you are :D

Got a package at my house the other day from Bavarian Autosport...the problem is that it's got my mom's name on it..but I smell christmas presents! I need to give my baby a bath, some waxing, maybe a back rub while I'm at it...she'll like that. Then I'll take her out for a nice brisk run...yeah, sounds like fun!

Oh yeah, and if anyone's looking for a 635CSi, there's one at Phillips auto on two notch. Manual, hellrot, in good shape from what I could tell. Didn't check out the intereor, but they're asking $8500. I want one, but that's more than I want to pay, and not the color I want.

fort mill.....oh yeah

Giggity giggity giggity...

Who was on I-26 last night heading towards Harbison from Chapin? Silver E36 M3...I was the guy in the E430 that was trying to keep up, haha. Beautiful car.

HE LIVES!

You back in town mang? How long you gonna be here? We need to get up... I wanna see the GLi with the drop.

Anyone know the guy in Charleston with an E36 M3 (black) with E46 gunmetal M3 wheels and a dealer tag? Saw it today down near the market, very NOICE.

Wasup y'all?! Just wanna say Happy Holidays and all that good stuff to all the Bimmer drivers of SC! PEACE!!

Happy holidays to everyone!

Hey, would anyone be interested in helping me host a regional BMW-fest here in SC? I had the idea earlier to host Summerblaze '06 here instead of down in Florida, but I need input from you guys.

Yep, Merry Christmas guys

Happy holidays yall

Thom, what would be involved? More importantly, would we get t-shirts?

:lol

Details. . . . .Details Thom . . . .

Oh yea. . . . .Happy Holidays. . . .

:lol

Details. . . . .Details Thom . . . .

Oh yea. . . . .Happy Holidays. . . .

Hey, PM me the details about the meet at your house....Imma start a new thread when I get a chance, but I wanted to make sure I had the details right.

It would involve organizing...getting all the interested members signed up, getting a rough head count of people/cars coming, talking to sponsors/companies about sponsoring, getting a location (I thought about one of the malls)...that sort of thing.

Sponsors would be asked to bring a few of their products to raffle off, and bring a tent and other stuff they'd be interested in selling at a car show.

For the location, we'd need plenty of parking with easy access.

Last year, the show was down in Orlando, which is only central to the Florida members. For everyone else, it's a big trip.

It was held over the summer last year, no specific date as of yet.

Hmmm . . .Sounds like fun :D

I wonder if we could use the Midway @ the Fairgrounds. . . .

I know we use it in for AutoX . . . .

D . . I'll shoot your the details on the Grill out shortly. . .

I forgot about the fairgrounds. Anyone have an idea of how much it would cost to rent out the fairgrounds for a day? That would be a great spot to meet.

According to their website, the price for renting the asphalt and grass areas depends on the event.

wtf does that mean?:confused

Sound more like:

"If you are charging an entrance fee and selling a lot of sh!t. . . we wanna slice of that.":shifty

I can ask Nick how much they charge SCCA when we do an autoX so it could give you an estimation.

Yeah, they would probably be more likely to give a usual renter a better deal, and not turn it down or anything

Damn, I just did a search for Columbia SC and man am I surprised there are actually BMW ppl here. I wouldn't mind meeting up. I originally searched this board looking for a shop in the Columbia area. I'm tired of cutting off limbs to deal with Hancock BMW and I can tell I will need a clutch shortly. I read this whole thread and haven't seen any shops mentioned. Is there any place in this area you would go to for a clutch?

Imports Only
1300 N Millwood Av, Columbia, SC 29204
(803) 254-7126

That's where I take my babies when I get to something I can't do!!!

Olin and Jay for teh win!!!

Tell em Perry sent ya ;)

Cool according to mapquest it looks like it's by that big church as you turn on to Gervais Street, so it's only 5 minutes from the house probably. Thanks much for the recommendation. I assume from your 3 babies they must take care of customer cars too which is what I'm most concerned about. I call them up and tell em who sent me for sure.

8ball u need to come to the SC grill-out we're gonna have on the 14 of Jan. Show ur car off and get some real info face to face.

Definately Imports Only. I give them all my business, and it doesn't take all of my money. They're good guys who know what they're doing.

I would recommend that you don't take your car to The Gourmet Garage. It took them 3 weeks to change the stock clutch in my car. They still didn't get it quite right, something is still screwed up in there, it doesn't sync right.

If you have to go to someone else, go to Phillips Auto, there on Two Notch Rd. They can do anything the dealer can do, but they're more expensive than Imports Only.

Thanx for the opinions and I'm glad I asked. I definately put the grill out on my calendar. I should be off work, I don't know if the car will be clean since it's so cold but I'd be glad to find some bimmer friends that are active in playing with their cars. I'll keep up with the thread and be more involed on this board now that I have discovered local folks.

No prob!!

Clean? My babies have only been washed about twice this month :( . . . So don't worry . . .

We'll have the details up soon on the grill out.

What's everyone up to for new years eve?

work..... 3pm til midnight it sucks

edit: whoo hoo page 10:buttrock

Have the choice between a couple of parties, bars, grills, and church . . . .

More than likely a combination of Church and grills . . . :D

I haven't found anything good to do yet but wherever I will be will be lots of fireworks. I gotta be at the airport the next day at noon tho so it won't be a late night for me. :(

Dang, only 4 of us are trapped with work?

Nuttin GT4 and Enthusia can't solve :D

I'll be at work Saturday till 3 pm, then Sunday 1pm-9pm.

I just got another temp job working for an accountant...I'll basically be the errand boy, making copies, mailing stuff, going to the bank, faxing stuff. Eh, never thought I'd work in a office, but this will be a good chance to see a side of business I've never seen. I'll probably get some grey hairs, since I am starting in January, and working till April when all your money goes to the government.

I just saw a black ///M3 pass me going opposite direction on TwoNotch. I tried to flag him down but no dice. Lives off of Polo Rd.....i think. Anybody know this car? Question- can u tell if a M3 is behind u at night?

E46?

Naw, e36 with a spoiler.

I don't really know where Polo Rd is, but I know of one guy that lives at College Suites with a black one. Didn't catch where he was from on the liscense plate did you?

Yeah, he had SC plate on. Polo Rd is off of Two Notch RD. North East Columbia. Near "the Summit". It looked clean. I just don't get it. How can u have a M3 and not be online looking for other M3 drivers. Isn't that what car enthusiust(screw the spelling) is all about? They should just sell the M3 and let someone who would appreciate it have it.

Question- can u tell if a M3 is behind u at night?

Answer: I usually can tell when they blast past me like I am standing still:(
