Too bad my cooling fan failure last few days.

Waiting for the resistors, relay and fan control box to arrive... Spare parts are hard to source thou..

People tends to say conti spare parts expensive, not really.. It depends on where they bought from.

I've been quote for RM3.5k for a whole cooling fan assembly, while i bought from UK cost only RM800 + RM100 shipping fees, everything genuine.

So what says you?

Guys thinking of making a Track Car, Which is better suited for track use

BMW e30 325i

or

Bmw e36 325i

I personally prefer the e30 due to its touring car legend image laugh.gif

But in terms which would be easier to tune and convert into a race/track car?

thanks guys icon_rolleyes.gif

I think both are fine
Pretty common european car for track in overseas laugh.gif
Hmm...If budget allow,what about a Lotus Elise?

the engine in the 335i in its initial stage had lots of problems with the high pressure fuel pump, many cars equipped with the 3litre turbo had to be recalled but i'm sure BMW has fixed all of em now la... hopefully sweat.gif

yeah 330i and 530i's are pretty rare, guess most malaysians don't like to pay 2.3k for their roadtax laugh.gif

and no la not swapping it. my e60 mileage is all highway miles  blush.gif 

bmw z4 either with the 2.5engine or the 3litre.

Now 335I engine issue had been rectified(High Pressure Fuel Pump,Oil Cooler)
330I is not here nor there mar
Pay the roadtax but don't get 335I performance laugh.gif
Besides,335I can easily do 300hp++ brows.gif

Its actually a matter of taste  laugh.gif 

For me i'm a NA lover and Turbo's are sweat.gif

don't get me wrong Turbo's are great but i don't know i just like the feel of NA. The smoothness etc

the standard 3 litre engine can be tuned to make 280+ or in some cases even more with just a few mods wub.gif

the 335i can easily do 380hp if im not mistaken just by upping the boost shakehead.gif
*
Yeap,335I easily modded into higher hp
3L can do 280hp???
I know 3.2L M3 S54 stock is already 343hp tongue.gif
If want NA,ultimate stop will be E46 M3 or E92 M3 or E60 M5
