Just got them. Racing Dynamics RGQ wheels. one is bent, and they all need new tires, but I couldnt resist seeing how they looked. shortly, they will come off until I can get the one fixed, and some new tires.

yea, in a few months I should have some money for Coilovers from bekkers.com. I could lower my car up to 3" with those. (they are adjustable.)

"bringing a BMW to the dragstrip is like taking a hooker fishing. Its fun, but its definatly not what it was made for."

I would like my car to be faster, no doubt, but suspension omes first. I have a chip, it gives me 22 hp @ 6000 and 20 ft lbs @ 4000.

stock, it does 0-60 in 7.4 (better then more hondas with mufflers, and better then most VW VR6s) but thats not that fast. eventually, Im thinking of super charging it.

anyway, suspension comes fisrt. my car will beat any honda that is faster then it in the twisties (with compterable drivers of course)

minus the Audi RS4 wagon. That will eat everyone's shit for lunch in the quarter mile, Half Mile, etc. It will also keep up with most sprorts cars through the turns and hairpins.

rs4 wagon is quick but i gurantee there are dozens of cars at a strip on a busy day/night that are faster then an rs4.

I Highly doubt that If i rolled up to an average strip on a saturday night, there is very little that could beat it. Its o-60 is 4.2 seconds I believe is what I read. That is fast as FUCK for a wagon.

I just don't see many cars able to compare to it around me or any track near by. Of course there are fullblown drag cars, and not street legal cars. But i'm talking stock, maybe chipped, small bolt ons, turbo at the most is what most cars are running around here.

sorry pal, i just don't care about arguing which is better. i only give opinions to people on how to make their car better no matter what it is. plus its 4am and i don't have the energy to go into an argument about some audi wagon that i could put my dog in or a domestic with leaf springs.

I hate people who try to supe up BMWs and do it in a distasteful way. these wheels and side skirts are Racing Dynamics. if you know about BMWs, thats all I need to say, and I should get respect out of that. I also hate when people put ///M3 logos on their non ///M3 cars. putting an //M logo on is ok, but not //M3, because they dont have an //M3, however, they migth have an //M bumper or black trim, or any number of other parts that come from an //M car.

k ignore everything he just said exept the headers and cold air part, do that. Def lower it on good quality coilovers, and look for quality not the lowest possible ride. I agree you should go with an exhaust but dont cheap out and get a loud ass fart can as suggested, save up for something nice a deep like a AC or Alpina. Then that car should be fun in the twisties etc, save your money on bling and put it to the motor, a fast car that looks clean is always better then a slow overdone car. Oh, and one of the best handling cars i have ever driven in the twisties was my old integra, so be careful not to bite of more than you can chew.

yea. my exaust is stock, but it makes a different sound then other e36s. myabe its old. but it is a nice deep low sound so I like it. anyway, ACs will probably be too expensive, but maybe Remus, Racing Dynamics, or UUC would be good.

an integra is still, nevertheless a FWD. it probably depends on what your used to, but RWD is the prefered.

for some reason, people think they are more expensive then other cars used, which they are not. service can be more, but if you do what you can by yourself, that can make up for it. I payed $5500 and that was a ripoff. part of the problem is that people get scared when they see 100k miles on a car. but for a bmw this is no cause for alarm, as long as you get it checked out by a place you trust and they say its ok.
