Another quality morning. 120 pics made the cut this time, you can view the set on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/danieljamesphoto/sets/72157644136003701/ or on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.657295867641447.1073741832.625429124161455&type=1 Few of my...

Very nice that!!

Thats how they all rust, inside out. My E36 has started to really get plagued lately :( Lovely car OP, quite a bargain too.

Awesome bud. What oil temps are you seeing?

It's a good thing I didn't see that thread lol.. I also think I prefer 'rank' :)

The service station in the first pic looks familiar :) Good pics mate

I'm in love with the seats. So much win in that car, arguably not the gearbox though?

He wont be paying the VAT or something lol. My boss is ex forces and she got a brand new beetle convertible when they came out for under 10 grand!

Cracking list that mate, B18 EG6 in red will be my next one :) I don't want to tempt fate but if the worst ever happened to my DC2 it would be getting shelled into an EG for sure. As soon as I find a decent unit the hunt will begin! You got some pics of them?

...but could you spend 90 minutes a day in a car that you hated? I think I've got it perfect with the E36, but that's another discussion for another thread lol.

Petrol isn't it? Life's too short for enthusiasts to own cars like this, IMO. Looks nice though I guess, and it's new so some people will be impressed. Edit, having re read the OP it makes more sense as a city car.

Haha, I'll be glad to have a quieter exhaust! No more worries about getting on track :) You had a few DC2s?

Will do :) You do, make sure it's B series though. Can't be having any of that boring H/K/F rubbish :P Well its a Tegiwa replica I'm getting from a mate for £180. Needs the filter cleaning but still a low price :) Got the exhaust for £300, nothing for a proper JASMA approved Mugen one...

Bought some more parts this morning. By this weekend I should have: Mugen Twin Loop exhaust Mugen Intake Mugen Pedals Clock gauge pod Sun strip Hopefully be getting that lot fitted along with removing the air con and giving the car a good clean. If all goes well I'll book on Cadwell for...

Thanks. I liked the look of the carbon, but the bonnet was vented allowing water to soak my HT leads and distributor, and the spoiler was all swollen - it looked like it had a nut allergy.

The UK cars have 10bhp or so less than the JDM cars, but you can gain pretty much all of that back by fitting a JDM exhaust (which mine has!) Hopefully, I'll have a Mugen Intake and a Mugen twin loop catback exhaust on it soon, possibly topped off with a Toda exhaust manifold. Should put me...

This is how it was as of last night Just the OEM spoiler to put back on now... Going to do some test drives first and see how it drives without.

It's not far from that at the moment :)

Spoiler went last night. :) Can't wait to get them on!! Fair enough, I do in some ways regret changing the front end looking back if I'm honest. Not that I don't like the way it looks, but maybe the time and money could have been better spent elsewhere.

Probably forgot a lot more, but couldn't write all that and not post my 'ring lap video!

Riiiiightttt. Chapter One: Chav Lets start with the last picture of the DC2 I posted in this thread. Then, an innocent, lightly modded UKDM DC2. At this time, the car was my daily doing around 3-350 miles per week. I ditched the Rotas for a set of Sprint SW96s, in Championship White...

They don't make a fantastic daily these days, but as a toy they're fantastic. Didn't realise I haven't actually updated this for over a year, I'll write an update today but it'll be massive lol.

Can I interest anyone in updates? Quite a lot has changed since the last pics :)

Re: E36 Track Day Hack (v2) Love the updates mate. The logic with picking up the parts is something I can relate to, considering I drove 200 miles to yours to pick up a £10 part lol.

For a generic map?!

LOL Has anyone seen this car lately? Pretty rare combo. GD53 HLN where are you, was on eBay a while back for way more than I paid off Dave.

Awesome Dave! Got me looking at 235i's now! Can you PM me more details on the lease deal?

That sure is tempting. If they were RC042s I'd snap your hands off

Oooo, strong resemblance to yourself and Barney old chap ;) Yeah I know, we were laughing about it but then the seller listed that it had sold and he was looking for other 328i Sports to sell on. Madness.

Sorted, although I found your for sale thread on BMWowner now. Definitely the next mod. Cheers mate. As above. ;) One sold for 7k the other day, was Hellrot red with around 50k on.
