I have to agree abt the longevity of the battery & weight distribution in that location....but then another potential source of rust & longer powerlines ( losses ). Just a thot.
sorry i'm quite new to this BMW world...therefore i got some questions what is MAF and Borlas? and how much the immi AC rims cost you? approximately how much would your E30 worth in Malaysia? compared to other standard E30 325i.. thanks
naipaul MAF is the gadget for detecting how much air's going into the intake. more often seen on later models. it's a cylindrical unit just before the air filter/box stock E30s comes with the AFM which has a highly annoying flap and the AFM isn't very reliable, and is something every owner wants to throw it down from the twin towers. Borla? they're some american exhaust manufacturer. produces some rusty/metallic/loud note.. my E30? hmm. it depends on the buyer and seller, they could strike a deal if the buyer's willing to pay a price for it and the if the seller's willing to part with it at that amount. i bought mine for RM35,000 last 3yrs. never regretted. never looked back.
there aren't many sample of post-89(facelifted) ori 325i's around.... cos these are mainly CBU and not CKD...
Tom. thanks for the information...yes your e30 is super well kept...i would leave my beloved AE86 for an E30 like yours anytime... what suspension setup are you using and how much it cost?
Tom, Your car is extremely great !!! Kena racun kao kao ! hahahahaha Thanks for letting us try on your car ...
Tom, Wah, quite nice man your car.. However, how come i never seen your car one at TT (old Subang jaya area).. it would be nice to see in person. Want to check out ur MAF, maybe can ask for ur opinion on the pros/cons of using this gadget. Where r u located btw ? Me, i am drving an E30 2-door just like u, so maybe can tukar2 ideas. Cheers
naipaul, thanks for the compliments... never thought of comparing an E30 with an AE86... hmmm but thanks Kinaka: no problem, anytime, hope i've contributed to your future plans on your car. don't worry, i've not done much so.... naharmas, thanks i'll try to make it to more TTs and HHs in future, i'm located in KL The pros are smoother revs, better power, more free revving, no AFM flap bog down, idle problems, etc the cons of this gadget would come in if it isnt tuned or wired right. plus, it would be better to wire in a temp sensor. but this is something without regrets.
tom..what wheels u got and how much it cost u? and do u know those deep dish BBS frm germany...what are the approximate price for each or set of 4 ?
Mr. Goh Your car looks damm cool man for an E30. How much did you spend for the paint job. Whats your top speed?
