work to do

[celsdogg]

sometime last year i noticed that my exhaust hangers were pretty much rusted away. i bought a exhaust hanger kit from bav auto to just rehang the current exhaust.

well, that proved hard as hell because the exhaust system was still in place. working around it was a bitch and didnt end well.

yesterday, i went over a speed bump and one broke and the other one somehow popped off. on top of that, my exhaust has had a hole in it for awhile.

then, my brake lining light goes off. add new pads to the list.

so i just ordered $325 worth of parts from bav auto. pagid front brake pads, new brake pad sensors front and rear, and a new oem exhaust.

I was looking for an ansa exhaust, and found a nice ansa sport at bimmerparts.com for only $187, but just got it from bav auto since i had to get other stuff from there.

regardless, lots of parts coming in.

anyway, any one have any experience with pagid brake pads? thoughts on ansa exhausts (oem or sport)?

Ansa is fine, but Autohaus had them cheaper

^^^ that was where i was going to get it at first, but it is an OEM ansa exhaust. at bimmerparts.com, they had an ansa sport for $187.

i guess i was just looking for someone to say that i didnt make a mistake in getting a stock exhaust instead of that ansa sport. . .

I have a Bosal exhaust... don't know if it's sold in the US, but I have to say this thing is even more silent than my old, rusted OEM one... (before the old one had those nasty holes in it)
so I guess you don't have to go for OEM parts, but if you like it a little bit louder better spend some money on real quality...
if I would buy a really good exhaust I'd be ready to spend about 400 for a Supersport one...

bavauto is a bit pricey, but good luck! I have heard about pagid pads being decent. How far are you Jersey guys from Camden/Cherry Hill area? I was at a meet down there 2 sundays ago.

I use mintex breaks on my E30, no complains, the front due make the wheels dusty, but it's breaks after all.

there is a bosal OEM muffler i came across on the net, they list the ANSA sport as well. i read somewhere people are not too happy with the ANSA, but i forget if it's the OEM or sports, i guess you will find out 1st hand, good luck

I think i just put a set of pagids on my car last weekend, so far so good, the oem quality pad really is pretty decent. +1 for supersprint I love mine.
