Hello everyone. Thank you for the privilege of joining the family. I am the proud owner of a 2004 330i zhp 3 pedal in tiag with black leather and silver cube build date 10/03. I apologize for lack of pics but crappy weather here has prevented me from snapping the shutter. I purchased the car last summer. With 100k ($9400) and despite the fact the car wasn't beaten there was a ton of deferred maintenance. Here's my list so far
Inspection 2 full
Vc and vcg vanos inspected and nice and tight
OFH and gasket
CCV
Disa g.a.s upgrade
Intake boots ( can't believe it wasn't throwing codes, 2 inch hole)
New pro 5 dry (car had afe mag stage 1)
Thermostat
Stewart water pump
Subframe bushings
New suspension, zhp control arms, oem fcabs,rtabs, and carrier bushings. Assembled (mounts, pads etc) bilstein/h&r tms setup (it's my dd so I stayed away from coil overs, incidentally this kit is awesome for drivability and overall handling, pricy but worth every penny) strut tower reinforcements
Ambient temp gauge
Re-covered my "blue"rear deck with anthracite headliner (scotch guarded, but it's gonna fade)
Upgrades
Ulo oem clears front, depo clear rears, weisliecht 5000k angel eyes
Full sound system upgrade ( integrated with stock nav) zapco dc reference amps, hertz and ads speakers ( couldn't stand stock hk sound, but didn't want to ruin stock appearance or "ghetto" up the car. Also concerned about weight, net 4lb gain. I will post build soon..
Uuc evo3 shortie with new weighted shift knob
Cow print baby seat ( awesome! For the occasional wot run)
M3 side views
New 135's with bf TA's squared
Scheduled upgrades
Eurocharged/shark tune
Possible headers ( on the fence due to drivability impairment)
High flow TB
Auto dim rear view ( got three and none fit :() so I'm on the lookout
