Out of curiousity, why did you go with the es airdam?  Do you like it better than what came with the car?
Title: asubimmer
Post by: asubimmer on April 03, 2006, 11:40:46 AM
its the "is" air dam, the "es" doesn't have the holes in the middle bottom.  I like the stock valance but I just wanted seomthing a little diff.  IMO the 87' 325is air dam is the hottest.  and the other reason I did it was b/c people say its not possible to make it fit ;)

nice job man... was the thing hard to fit on your car?

you doing sideskirts next (don't ask me how they go on... haha)

thanks man, they aren't that hard to fit.  It just takes time and patience.  I want to put e36 side skirts on next.  I want them b/c they will hang lower than e30 ones, giving me more room for side exhaust thats going w/ the turbo setup ;)

Quick update...
 
well my coils should be here tommorro, COP conversion here I come.  I am also going to be replacing the rear door (I guess they are still called that on a 2 door?) windows w/ lexan.  I plan to do the rear also sometime when I can mess w/ it.  That will take a lot more time than the sides.  I would like to do the door glass also but it would scratch like crazy and since I don't have AC anymore I don't want to have fixed windows :(
 
I just started a new job so that means less time to screw around w/ the car but more $ for like IE the turbo manifold :)

Sweet iS!  Can't wait to see the gain you get after the turbo goes on!  I've seen a few FI M42's but have never been in one.  I bet it'll be insanely good even though I bet it's great to drive now!

Also, love the location of the pics, awesome roads!

hey asubimmer, nice car.  hows your exhaust sound with that glasspack?
Title: asubimmer
Post by: asubimmer on November 09, 2006, 07:58:07 AM
its loud as one would expect but it has a really mean sound to it.  I really like it!!  The idel is really deep and sounds great.  Its a tad loud for long trips on the highway but its not too bad.  The turbo will quiet it down some.  I wasn't going to put it on till I got the turbo on but the old muffler sounded like crap and was about to fall off lol.
