Do you mean the new model Z4 M? cause the older ones don't do it for me. Do Z4's have any major known common issues? Do you think they are an overall better DD than a modded 335is?

Hoping to actually meet the Godfather in person too. :cheers

I have considered all those things, and it really would be too much of a PITA for me to do every 2 years. I will just have to live with stock exhaust and save for my next car. Thinking 335is with JB4...

I am moving do to North county SD around August of this year. Probably in the Escondido/Carlsbad area. Would like to get to know some fellow BMW junkies or just car guys. I am currently having to...

Nice. Do you have any other mods done or a tune yet?

Replaced the whole cooling system today, water pump, thermostat, E.T. , coolant and bled the system. She runs beautifully again.

Bought mine in 2009 with 55k miles and now I has 117,xxx. Sad Panda! :-(

Have you replaced your vanos seals? That could be causing your dip and any loss of power at 4k rpms.




EDIT* Yeah, I forgot it usually causes a power loss around 3k rpms not 4k.

I have been waiting on Amazon to get the Bosch 17215 back in stock. They have been sold out for about a month. FTL

Really, you think a couple of 2-3 second clutch slips will damage the PP and flywheel that bad? CDV has been gone for quite some time now. I'm thinking I need to drive it around normally for a bit...

I think it sounds good, but i don't mind some rasp. Does that 3 in change performance at all or just sound?

No, did not see any smoke, just a little burnt smell when it has happened. Car drives fine under normal driving, a little touchy on the start, but that's most likely my 12lb flywheel. All...

Hey guys, So I am wondering if it is possible to permanently burn/ruin your clutch?
I have abused it a few time starting off some very steep hills here in Seattle, and got that nasty smell. But...

Personally, I have to say the best bang for our buck would be........... Ebay headers and a tune. Will get you right around 20-25hp. Then after that would be a 3.38 or 3.46 diff.

Who has the S/C ZHP with all the goodies in the engine bay?

I have American Family Ins. and pay $1210 a year for full coverage on the Zhp and 89 325i, and renter's ins.

Haha, oops, missed by a decimal point. Thanks Dane. I meant .036 isn't anything to worry about. :thumbsup

I would say I have a fair amount of general knowledge and repair capabilities.

1) Preventative maintenance
2) Suspension/Brakes
3) Tranny/Driveline
4) Engine
5) some troubleshooting or...

First of all, welcome the the Family. Now, I have the exact same car as you and I will say that debadging and blacking out the grills looks saweet! Second, if you are anal about fixing things like...

None that I can think of. As long as both oils are the same weight, full synthetic, and have the same ratings, you should be fine. I actually just resealed my diff cover this last week and I only...

Your family deserves the BEST. Congrats again!

Try and do a dyno before and after the port/polish/cams. I'm interested in how much actual Hp can be gained from this. I'm thinking 50hp-70-hp is kind of high but you never know.

Sometimes I like the lurkers, it let's me know someone really cares! :blushing
