I was a member of MM for one semester before I transferred to Clemson. Although I left, I still try to be an active member when I can.
My Ride: 2002 BMW 330ci
125k miles
5spd manual
Steel Grey/grey leather
Mods:
ZHP Control Arms
Powerflex FCAB
Brembo 4 piston calipers(all corners)
Braided steel lines
OEM E46 M3 rotors
Mods waiting to be installed:
Top Speed catless headers
AA tune
Subframe reinforcement
Team MFactory Helical LSD
3.15:1 or 3.38:1 FDR Diff
UUC short shift kit
Mods I wish for:
Coilovers
Apex Arc-8 wheels
Story:
I found this car for sale on E46Fanatics and contacted the owner. Drove down to Cary NC to pick it up 2 days after finding it. The owner is an avid SE46 racer and knows what he is doing with these cars. The entire cooling system had been replaced, Inner and outer intake bellows, clutch and flywheel, alternator, tie rods, valve cover gasket, all of these had less than 2k miles on them so it was a sweet deal for me. Drove the 300 ish miles home on Conti race slicks and swapped them out for some Michelin AS3+ 235/45R17. Went down to JMU for my first ever Autocross a week later and won the novice group. I can't wait for the opportunity to take this thing out onto VIR or Summit.
