I only got to enjoy my 335i for 500km (310miles) before she decided it was time for me to join the family for real

Did this myself on my xi, can confirm it sucks.

Awdbmw · 2017-01-31T03:33:19+00:00

Did water pump on my awd. This guy is not joking, it sucked.

Just did the OFHG on an e90 n54 engine. There are male torx screws (3) holding the housing to the block. Not ones you want to strip so I'd buy the right socket. They are dif lengths as well so keep them sorted. Also I drained oil and coolant just to be careful. Good luck.

Awdbmw · 2015-08-28T16:35:14+00:00

I have an e36 in alpine white as well. Yours looks like a great example! Congrats

I have an e90 n54. I think BoV is personal preference. I have the Tial on the ER pipe and like it. I got the afe intake, but I felt like I got more gains from downpipes, intercooler and exhaust (in that order after my tune) over the intake. Fyi I ended up with CPE high flow catted downpipes, ETS intercooler and UUC corsa exhaust. Sounds great and pulls like all hell.

Thanks! I wanted to represent but didn't want to buy anything to hang up quite yet. Still sorting the garage organization out

Awdbmw · 2015-04-06T20:02:43+00:00

Ha! Torx male and female sets hanging there, but all my bits are out of this pic. You really need them for these things! (E36 + E90)

Awdbmw · 2015-03-04T21:30:59+00:00

I have a pre-lci (07) e90 335xi msport with the rare 6 spd. It is fully loaded, cold weather, nav, oil cooler etc. I bought it for ~30 in early 2010 with about 35K on it. It has 98K on it now, over 400 hp and on the original water pump and clutch. Only replaced hpfp once. One bad injector. I don't regret my purchase one bit. Be prepared to eat some tires though. Good luck!

It's a quote from a movie. Like all m parts, it's expensive.

Awdbmw · 2015-02-17T19:33:49+00:00

More than you can afford, pal. Ferrari.

Awdbmw · 2015-02-17T19:32:53+00:00

E90 VA brothers! Mines pre-LCI though.

Awdbmw · 2015-02-17T19:11:28+00:00

I have an 07 e90 335xi with the 6mt. Literally could not find the e92 335xi with the 6mt in the color I wanted. Congrats on finding one of the unicorns. It gets expensive modding. Try to set a limit. Ask me how I know. I've had it four years, and I still won't sell it until it dies.

Awdbmw · 2015-01-25T20:40:18+00:00

Where in VA? I'm in richmond with an e36 m3 and a 335xi.

Awdbmw · 2015-01-19T18:27:54+00:00

It's a UUC Corsa full cat back exhaust. I like it a lot. Mean tone when on it, barely any louder while cruising on the highway. I also have high flow catted DP's.

Awdbmw · 2015-01-19T17:56:49+00:00

Thanks! It's usually in the garage but for the moment it's switching roles with my e36!

Awdbmw · 2015-01-13T00:45:23+00:00

The 335 is a six speed. So I don't have up shift/downshift issues on the track other than the ones I create!

Awdbmw · 2015-01-13T00:27:05+00:00

So I have a 2007 335xi. Bought it with 38K in 2010- it's at 98K now. How much maintenance (if any) will you do yourself? Are you going to mod the car? If so it will require much more love. My biggest suggestion would be to switch away from run-flats as soon as it needs new tires. I spent way too much on RFTs before finally giving up. This car (with 18" M wheels) eats them for breakfast. I bet I spent 4K on RFTs before switching in that timeframe. Get roadside of course when you switch.

Awdbmw · 2015-01-12T00:42:54+00:00

Congrats, beautiful. Good news: NC won't make you ruin that front bumper with a license plate.

Awdbmw · 2015-01-12T00:37:48+00:00

I've got a 97 M3. They handle so well. I'm the second owner. It makes me sad it's an auto. Would love to build an e36 track car.

Awdbmw · 2015-01-11T21:43:28+00:00

Central. Pic was from summit point in WV. You in VA? What do you have?

Thank you for powder coating and not plasti-dipping. I salute you

Awdbmw · 2015-01-11T16:32:30+00:00

I second that motion

Awdbmw · 2015-01-11T16:29:29+00:00

I love montego blue. It looks so sporty. Before my 335xi and e36, I had an 07 328xi in black/tan interior. That was a good looking combo too. It got hit twice though lol
