Hi everyone, I just got stationed up here in Bremerton on the Stennis and was wondering where are the trusted places to take my 98 M3 to get worked on. Im currently looking into a new clutch/flywheel setup, since the stockers are going 88k miles on the car, and also looking into getting a set of tein-basics. Since i just moved up here i dont have a place of my own to do work on the car, and you all know how we like to treat our vehicles
:evil2 ---->>> :devillook --->>>:help . And any info on meets and such would be great to meet up w/ fellow bimmerfreaks.

My shop is very local to Bremerton, I am about 3-4 exits S.E. Down hwy 16, just off the Purdy Drive Exit.

My head mechanic has been working on BMW's and Mercedes for 30 years.

One of the best parts about my shop is that I never charge anything for Diagnostics. I also hook up Bimmerforum memebers with wholesale cost on parts.

Feel free to reach me at my shop at 253-858-9373 or at 253-228-7463

Lol, suspension is easy to install. Once you do it once, it's CAKE.

Suspension isnt that bad, i know but w/o a decent garage to work in it can be nearly impossible.

Remember to buy the Z3 Reinforcement plates or the Ground Control rear shock mounts.

what are the advantages on these parts to stock or are they a requirement to lower the car? when i did my suspension on my supra it was straight forward using the stock parts since they were in decent shape.

they just reinforce the strut tower by dispersing the pressure equally over a larger area...so the rear shocks don't rip out of the rear shock towers and give you a couple grand worth of repair bills. and possibly a messed up alignment.
