New car

[Danny2009]

Well as the times come to break my beloved 306 after having them on and off for 5 years I thought I was time to move on so I've purchased this....

[Curt]

Looks pretty good, wheels are horrible though

[Danny2009]

Yea not my cup of tea really bit rip speed special looking for some m3 wheels after winter

[WiNgNuTz]

Should have a "BMW content" warning in the title

Looks nice though mate, but i agree witht he wheels looking a bit on the ripspeed side!

[Curt]

Should have a "BMW content" warning in the title

I think it'd be more appropriate for there to be "306 warning" in titles nowadays

[E_KEL95]

Looks like a straight enough one, m3 kit with either motorsports or sunflowers and itd look very well

[Danny2009]

Where would the fun be in that wingnutz

Them wheels have brand new tyres on the rears but I don't think they will last too long /becauserwd

[itone24]

personnally not a fan, especially after seeing pics of your pug but looks tidy for what it is mate

[Jonny b]

I know of a set of gen e46 m3 rims with no Tyres freshly refurbed in black sat in a living room
Doing nowt!

Oh yeh nice car! Engine??

[Frosty]

At least its not a megane lol

[me-tm]

Ooooh nice. As said above, what engine?

I've already run the numbers and, if all goes to plan, in the spring time I'll be looking at getting hold of an E46 330i. Touring, obviously.

[THE_Liam]

Pretty win but I preferred your 306. 323 right?

[silverzx]

I hope its a 325..!

[Mattcheese31]

Pretty win but I preferred your 306. 323 right?

yep . . .

[Danny2009]

It's a 323i coupe 2.5 straight 6 around 170 Bhp standard.

My cousins owned it for years and at the age of 14 (now 21) said one day i will own it came up for sale boom bought it, I know there is more powerful bigger engines ect ect but I've always wanted this particular car.

Pm coming jonny

[silverzx]

To be fair the 323's get a lot of a stick but even the 318's are perfectly driftable (if thats your thing) so the 323 should cope fine.

[Danny2009]

Not too bothered about drifting, not yet anyway

Expected to get loads of stick posting up this thread tbh lol

[silverzx]

Not too bothered about drifting, not yet anyway

It'll come with time... Accidental or not.

[Danny2009]

Just looking forward to driving it and getting used to it, think when I've got that covered arse end will be coming out lol

If its even slightly wet it'll catch you out no doubt.

LSD or open diff?

[Danny2009]

Don't think it's had anything done to it apart from lowered and them wheels so guess it's a standard diff

[Midnightclub]

The 323 and the 325 have the same engine, it's the inlet manifold which is the main difference between them, put on a 2.5 M50 inlet manifold and you'll be nearer 185hp for less than £100, more can be gained if you then get a decent zorst and a map to suit, then you'll be around 200hp

[Danny2009]

Don't do that! Putting ideas in my head already priced a turbo kit up lol

Yea I've head about the swap over 200 would be nice

[silverzx]

Turbo power is the only way!

[Danny2009]

Best get saving then ehh!

[silverzx]

Straight 6 turbo is p0rn tbf.

[DazzaHDI]

Finally! Lol looks nice bud! What you gonna be driving when the bad weather comes?

[E_KEL95]

Not if the diff has a wee date with mr mig

Screw straight turbo'ing it drop an m3 evo lump into her then either turbo or slight mods been in a evo with few mods done and it can fairly shift let me tell you!!
