    The green machine

    I figure I'd throw up a few pics of the car that sucks money, while the 3g sits and watches. I still daily the 3g, roof is starting to fade though and the trunk is pealing.



    Body roll?


    Still break it sideways.


    Poor quality pic, but I like how it looks.


    Some good stuff.


    Not the most fascinating car, but hey who else throws a 5-series around in autox? Car has a 5-speed swap, redone suspension bushings, tint, full exhaust. Doing bit by bit, but she's getting there.

    Re: The green machine

    It handles like a 3800lbs sedan. I does hold its own on the back roads, but for its weight it handles great on stock springs and struts. I've lost modded E36's on backroad's before, then a again driver means a lot.

    Just a quick acceleration and sound video. It is pretty loud.

    Looks good Russian. Is it sucking money because you are modding it out or because it is breaking?

    Re: The green machine

    Thanks. Well it first started out as fixing the car up. Then it went into doing mods like lighting, then 5-speed swap, then exhaust, and it keeps going. haha. So it's mods that suck money.

    I want to do suspension, but considering my income is now cut in half because of school, I cannot pull off saving for a place to live and buying goodies.

    Re: The green machine

    Do E34's have rear fogs? This is a newly discovered feature for me from not to long ago. I always wondered why some foreign cars had one REALLY fucking bright tail light (and some Korean's and one American).

    It was an option for European models. US models have the cut out for it, so you just need to get the switch, run some wiring, and use a taillight socket with a bulb.
