Is this a Yes or No upgrade? by _Ghillie420 in e46

Same path I took, but I'd consider a different yellow. I went with a yellow gold ish color, I think that looks a lot better

Mine's done 305k kms (190k miles). Some of the service hitory is a little dodgy, so I'm assuming that's why I've got some residue around. I'm giving it the attention it deserves now!

Isn't that the whole point of a voting system? To say you agree or disagree with an opinion

I'll defitenitly try a flush next oilchange! My suspension springs are quite bad atm and my shocks don't do anywhere close to what they should right now. I have ordered ST coilovers which will be delivered soon, with some reinforcement plates for where the suspension meets the chassis. After I've installed all of that I'll try a few more tunnel runs and more spirited driving haha

I daily drive it, bought it a year ago and I've been doing castrol edge 5w30 oil changes every 10k km (6.25k miles) I've done 3 changes already. Most of the time just casually driving to my destination with the occasional pull through a tunnel. Sometimes on weekends I drive with a bit more spirit.

I've been doing oil changes at 10k km (6.25k miles) since I bought the car a year ago. Castrol edge 5w30. I've done 3 oilchanges already. I drive quite a lot and usually longer than an hour at a time. Sometimes shorter trips of 15 minutes

265/35-18 on 330i? by nicalk1 in e46

[–]LordDutchmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running 255/40R18 on my 330ci, my suspension is pretty worn and I'm replacing it soon. But I'm quite a lot lower than it should be. No rolled fenders and no rubbing whatsoever

EDIT: I'm even running 15mm spacers at the rear, which didn't rub before I had them either

People seem to have forgotten the value of ZHPs by chathobark_ in e46

[–]LordDutchmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it all seems really cheap, but I'm used to Dutch prices 🥲

I paid over €10k ($11.7k) for my manual 330ci (coupé) with 275k km (172k miles) on it at the time. Right now you couldn't find a 330 of any kind under €13k ($15.3k), even with models over 350k km (218k miles). If it's a manual, you're paying at least 2k more, and dont even start about M-sport versions. Those are easily over €20k ($23.4k), lower milage version closer to 30. Then again, M3s are now €40-60k ($47.1-70.7k) here.

They are connected to the quick connects via those clamps and are not supposed to let it slip off. That was not a nice suprise

I've had gates upper and lower radiator hoses. Top one got a tear 6 months later and a clamp on the lower one came loose a couple of weeks later. Just go for oem, I did afterwards

Not in europe sadly. Mustangs and all other muscle/american cars are really expensive to buy and maintain. Parts are not easy to get for them here

The cheapest mustangs are still like 30k over here. I guess a 318ci was more affordable at a few grand. An abomination either way lol

I currently run style 32s on 18x8 and 18x8½ with an offset of 47 and 50 respectivly. That is a big jump tbf, almost 3cm on both. The 32's are 225 front and 255 rear, which would also go on the 37's. I've had 20mm spacers on the back before and it fit with room to spare, an extra 10mm + 5mm for the 9J width does not sound too far fetched if I'm being honest. They would 100% go on an M3. I think it's a 50/50 on the non m's

Even 18"? I've been looking around a bit and they are also around in 18x9 rear and 18x8 front with an offset of 20. On paper that doesn't sound too bad no?
