  • Newcomer from Michigan

    Well its time I stop lurking and start becoming serious, asking questions and actually post.

    I currently DD a 2004 Ford Focus ZX3 with a 2.3l Duratec and Manual 5 speed. Mods are 17" Black Ford Racing Rally wheels, K&N Cold Air Intake, Projector HID 6000K headlights, Magnaflow 2.5" catback Exhaust, Random previous owner lowering springs.

    I was while i was parked so I have an SVT front bumper to put on and paint with 6000K HID Fogs and also have a set of DGR coilovers so I can go lower and raise it back up for these stupid Michigan winters.

    My other car that I used to DD for about 2 years that is now in my garage is a 1987 Toyota Supra NA 5 speed manual No mods at all. 100% original with 69K Original miles. only thing I have done to it is replace the speakers and head unit.


    I am looking for something to make into a project. A manual trans thats not FWD. Im thinking BMW but am open to suggestions. I want something I can work on and not have to make sure i get it finished that day. something i came make low and quick and just worry about modding as my budget allows. Would need to be semi reliable. Wont be a DD but needs to not strand me when I drive it. Any suggestions of what to look for or at let me know. Looking forward to learning a lot.

    anyways onto the pictures. Only have one current one of the Supra as all of my other pictures are on an External hard drive.



    Here is the focus













    And then my old 2001 Ford Focus Sedan that i traded because I could not stand driving an Autotragic trans (6000K HID headlights, 2.5" Borla catback Exhaust, Tint, Typhoon Short Ram intake, Eibach Pro kit,Larger ported throttle body, Tom's Tune)

      Thanks

      I really want something like a mid/late 80s-early 90s 325 or something similar. I like have a project to come home to. Or when I can't sleep I can just go wrench till im tired. Any suggestions on a good place to go learn a lot more about bimmers?

          can anyone recommend a good BMW forum to learn from?

          or how about good years for me to look at?
