Mr Jezza's 318i M42

[mrjezza]

Hey everyone,

First can I just say how impressed I am with this forum and congratulate you on how far you have come in under 2 months! Now onto my car :P

E30 318i
Built 10/89
Alpineweiss II

Blew up the original M40...
Now running an M42... not totally sure of its origins atm (see http://www.m42club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=446)

Performance:
2" catback exhaust
M42 conversion
Pro Formance M42 ECU Chip - 4 May 2006

Appearance:
Full MTech Bodykit
16" Advanti Racing Wheels
Firestone Firehawk SZ50 Tyres

These photos are from before I had the engine swapped but cosmetically its hasn't changed (in fact its worse now because I got hit by hail real bad about 6 months ago)

P.S. these photos are straight off the camera; those are real lens flares lol

I'd like to go turbo (eventually) and its great to see someone in Australia has already done it! *bows to E30M42Tech*

Keep up the good work everyone and thanks for having me :)

good to have you here mate!

M-Tech 4 Door, nice.

Id love to go Turbo, and am always considering it, but stupid Adelaide laws mean it is highly illegal. don't need anymore reasons to get defected.

Love the car mate! Since your from Australia, check out ECCA.net - mostly we're victorians, but theres a few qld'ers up there as well!

i like the concept too, but what does this have to do with his car? :confused: :D

Update time:

I painted my spark plug cover today - expected gains: 15-20hp per stripe. ;)

Btw, just for the record I run an M42 from a Euro 318iS (not the standard M42 in that comes in a US 318i).

i'm using firefox and i'v got no problems seeing the pics, i'm on a mac version of it tho.

Your right...this is the later body (88+) It had an M40 because he's in Australia, not to be confused with the M10.

[dude8383]

i still don't see pics...except for the attachment above.

Try now, I removed the in post attachments so they show up down the bottom.
