Re: Western Off Topic
If you want a jz-e36 then why bother with the one with the M3 swap? Just get some 318i for like 2 grand and get on with it.

Re: Western Off Topic
it doesnt have an M3 swap, and i needed it to be daily-able until i could afford to do the entire swap at once. I cant stand how slow 318's are, so thats why i wanted the 2.5.

I looked for over six months for my E36.They all were asking well maintained prices,but either needed all the standard E36 fixes,or claimed the car already had all the standard E36 fixes,but actually had none of them.

Re: Western Off Topic
My car is a POS... Sup?
But I'll take that same POS and beat the dog shit out of it any day of the week... Which reminds me, I'd love for someone to come over and help me w/ diagnosing this high idle issue.
Story: I usually only drive the car a couple days a week now. I drove it to go take my son to lunch (Vinton to Westlake and back). Didn't beat on the car or anything. Parked it for about a week or so, came out to take it for a spin and it just wants to idle high now, right around 1600rpms... Other than it setting for over a week, nothing was done to it.

Re: Western Off Topic
+1....The vacuum lines near hot shit tend to dry out and crack.Others tend to blow off under boost.I always wrap the ones near hot stuff,and zip tie/clamp them to the bungs.Having the wastegate line blow off at WOT is not good(25psi on stock bottom end?check!).
Does it do it all the time,when cold or warmed up?Coolant full?
