I need A shop where I can get the 6ers engine looked at that doesnt cost too much. Also I need a place where I can get rear Rotors and a brake job for the car Thanks Im looking for one somewhere in the OC if you can please give me adress or number.
- Alek
Thanks in advance
What's wrong with the engine? Does it not run? Is it making noise? When you say "not cost too much", what kind of budget do you have?
As for the brakes, I posted on your thread for that. As for install, brakes are easy. I am sure there are plenty of local people that would be willing to help you do a brake job for the cost of a pizza and some soda (since you are too young to buy beer :stickoutt )

You shouldn't be driving 90+ anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You shouldn't be driving 90+ anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!He shouldn't be driving PERIOD! According to his profile, he is only 13.
To be honest, unless that motor has had a rebuild recently, I would expect it to be a bit of a lazy pig at 90+. If you are willing to drop a few G's into it, then maybe it would be a bit stronger.
First cars are supposed to be slow and unreliable. Thats what its all about! :)

Hey kid, my advice is take the bus for now, wait until you are sixteen and take driver's Ed then. Meantime stay put and be patient and your time will come.

you can do alot of shopping in your immediate area with out ever having to leave the house. try hitting the local phone book, starting with bavarian auto specialists and working your way down to the less euro-oriented mechanics. remember that the bmw specialist shops are obviously more knowledgeable than the shops who don't see bmw's on a daily basis, so even though you might save a couple hundred at 'Joe Shmoe's Auto' ...the trade off is that you may not get as thorough of an inspection under the hood, and maybe you will.
anyway, compile a price list of the shops you cold called and base your decision on what you think fits your budget and what feels right.
p.s. i admire you getting your feet wet at such an early age, by the time your able to drive you will most likely have aquired a whole wealth of knowledge (probably more than most 40yr olds drivin 750li's :D ) good luck!

Bullet Performance is right down the street from you.... but it depends on if you want a good shop or a cheap shot. Bullet is certainly good.
