Plans for the new year? - United Bimmer Community

**Turbodefrost** · 01-12-2007, 11:05 AM

So anyone have a big plans for their cars, or for anything else this year? I'll hopefully come up with the money for M3 mouldings, new mid pipes, maybe intake? hope everyone's resolutions have lasted at least till now!

For me, nada, zilch, no more. I pretty much have all the add-ons that I wanted, and I just had my rims dented by a highway pothole, but I'm not even going to fix/replace them. I'm just going to maintain the car minimally until I'm out of school, then get an E39 M5 or an E90. I figure why waste the money?

I need to do an exhaust and new tires come spring time, i would also like to do sways full red tails and new lights in front and call it a day and then get something as a daily (what has yet to be determined)

This year I plan on buying one of these:

This pic is an '82 633CSi, turboed and setup so it has the power of a naturally aspirated 4.5L... what I want is an '88 635CSi Highline, in this color, w/ the same bumbers shown here.

Santa Rosa Junior College. One of the best JC's in the country.
Its cheap..and all UC/CSU have very good transfer programs with them..so it makes sence for me.

**BaLAnCe17** · 01-30-2007, 02:27 AM

I am going to try and get as much money out of it as i can. Im going to put it up for sale right before i leave for florence and have it sit until i get the price i want...thats the plan so far. im hoping around $18000 though. pretty spendy

oh i see nice, i def won't have that kinda $$ but i'm sure you won't have too much of a problem selling it, it so sexy!

well i just bought some AA adjustable rear contril arms for my camber problems, and am looking around for some camber plates for the front. But i need to get my fenders rolle/stretched before i can do any adjustments

after that will be some fun stuff like LSD, straightpipes, m3 mouldings, lights, diffuser etc... w00t! what a money pit!

**BaLAnCe17** · 02-02-2007, 01:59 PM

this is the car that im looking to pick up...my dad used to race it in SCCA before and right after i was born. i think it would be a fun little project. http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/car/269780932.html let me know what you guys think haha

**DEATH2000** · 02-02-2007, 07:15 PM

I wanna save up and get an M50 manifold and software. Maybe a supercharger or start saving for a truck.

Also i have a retarted crack in my window that i want fixed but replacing my windhsield would cost like $670CDN

**devinwwu** · 02-05-2007, 01:46 PM

I'm planning on doing nothing to the accord, but the bike is a different story all together.
Already put the 6000k HID kit in high and low beams, Racing Shorty Adjustable clutch and brake levers and a tank protector.

future mods:
PUIG Double Bubble Black Windscreen
Maybe a slash cut race exhaust...
Frame Sliders (No Cut Delrin)
Flushmount turns
fender eliminator
powdercoat the pegs flat black
Other than that I'm pretty happy about everything. just need to get it broken in so i can take the revs up some more. these bikes are unhappy below 5k revs. haha redline is at 17k on this bad boy
