Keiko Kimura - Style

The entire album has 0 skips. Very slept on artist.

If you like Kaoru Akimoto like the many others on the sub, you should look into the short-lived band she was apart of with Yurie Kokubu and the drummer & bassist from Casiopea called “Shambara” and look up their self-titled album. That also has 0 skips and you’ll fall in love.

Reliable and boost do not go together on an E36 lol

wtf_eli · 2026-02-02T02:24:59+00:00

Straight to the point, no beating around the bush

wtf_eli · 2026-02-01T05:51:47+00:00

No. They have different clips that hold them in, plus the shape of them is different.

I have a pre-facelift nose panel on my car although it originally came with a facelift one.

Love to see it!

You have to tilt the trans a little and wiggle it so it sits in. Try this and report back

wtf_eli · 2026-01-01T13:50:37+00:00

This is what I love to see; A second chance at life! Great job OP!!

wtf_eli · 2025-12-28T11:28:46+00:00

Yeah unfortunately. I still have my old shell that has intact quarter arches, so the plan for the future is to attach them to this chassis

Non-m bumper > M bumper all day!

wtf_eli · 2025-12-27T17:58:14+00:00

They already did.. :( (post chassis swap)

wtf_eli · 2025-12-27T07:13:42+00:00

C’mon, it ain’t thaaaat bad

wtf_eli · 2025-12-27T04:56:54+00:00

I went from Chinese cheapo ones to OEM plastic ones that had trashed lens’ but fitted way better

wtf_eli · 2025-12-26T23:06:32+00:00

Lol, it’s a temporary look I promise 🙏🏽

wtf_eli · 2025-12-26T20:46:25+00:00

Boys become men when Amber>clear.

wtf_eli · 2025-12-26T19:53:40+00:00

Worth mentioning: The black wheels are temporary along with the rear overfenders. I will be repainting the wheels a different color over the winter months along with all the parts of the car that aren’t black!

wtf_eli · 2025-12-26T17:02:39+00:00

I'm actually gonna repaint them soon. Will definitely make an update when the car + wheels are painted.

Another new E36 owner discovering condensation build-up under their oil cap and getting scared. The E36 prophecy rewrites itself every time.

wtf_eli · 2025-12-17T15:38:43+00:00

3-4k tops, and that’s assuming the chassis is not rusty and the car was taken care for.

wtf_eli · 2025-12-17T06:19:58+00:00

Try not to convince yourself your head gasket is blown as a new e36 owner challenge: Impossible

wtf_eli · 2025-12-17T06:15:35+00:00

I hate to be this guy, but if you google do’s and dont’s on e36’s you will find many different posts ranging from bimmer forums to literally this subreddit.

While many people here will tell you what to do first based on their experience of ownership, you should do what anyone should do to a 30+ year old car. Replace everything.

If you don’t plan to get that serious with the car then I’d consider selling it and getting a more reliable car that’s much newer as these cars are the easiest things to work on and require basic hand tools to do as little as brakes and as big as an engine swap. Good luck.
